Plenty failing tests on cpantesters for version 0.024 #15

I cannot tell the reason for the broken tests, sorry. No statistics give me a hint about the reason, so probably there is some second-level dependency responsible that does not show up in the declared dependencies?

I have figured out the problem. Your perls were installed with libnsl available, but it no longer is. That means that effectively it can't build a new static perl. My code for detecting if one can still compile a (static) perl fails to detect that.

I should probably just skip that test on dynamic perls, there are too many issues with it really and it's not something anyone would realistically use anyway.

Issue is worked around in the latest release
