cpan install exit status

[melezhik]

It'd be great if cpan install fails it return exit status <> 0. In automated deploy via chef-client this feature is vital.

It doesn't already do this? What version are you using? Are you using the script or something else?

This is detailed information:

Thanks for that. I thought I had made that work, but I had merely defined
the constants for it. I just uploaded App::Cpan 1.61_03 which I think does
the trick. It will return non zero for any failure, even if other modules
in that run installed just fine.

We can close this issue.
