This is on an RPerl user's machine (not mine), Ubuntu v12.04 w/ Perlbrew installed Perl v5.20.2, g++ 4.8.1, EU::MM 7.18 both system-wide & single-user via Perlbrew, the error appears near'ish to the bottom of the big paste below, here is a snippet for convenience:

$ cpanm -v ExtUtils::CppGuess

... STUFF HAPPENS ...

t/011_makemaker.t ..... 1/1
_# Failed test 'build with ExtUtils::MakeMaker'
_# at t/011_makemaker.t line 12.

... MORE STUFF AS SEEN IN PASTE DUMP BELOW ...

This is a major problem, can't install Inline::CPP or RPerl for new users! :-(

$ cpanm -v ExtUtils::CppGuess

I am the one trying to get RPerl installed, please ask me if you need any additional information about my operating system, etc.

A year or so ago we felt strongly that ExtUtils::CPPGuess would be a good separation of concerns for the Inline:::CPP installation process. The idea was that IL::CPP shouldn't have to provide what another module is doing a better, more portable, and more generally useful job of doing already. Even if that module were falling short in some way (the theory was) community support for that module would drive its development at a better rate than "one-off" solutions baked into Inline::CPP. Furthermore, even if we had to do the fixing of ExtUtils::CPPGuess ourselves, it would be better to fix that module so that the community could benefit rather than patching Inline::CPP such that only users of that distribution might benefit.

Unfortunately this has not worked out as well as I had hoped. ExtUtils::CPPGuess turns out to need a bit of a rewrite in order to be better extensible, and more portable. And the community (of which I am a part) just haven't stepped in to improve it.

The best immediate solution is to modify Inline::CPP so that the ExtUtils::CPPGuess module becomes a "recommends" rather than "requires", and so that Makefile.PL is able to recover gracefully in its absence. The right way to do this is to modify the meta produced by Makefile.PL, and also to modify the modules bundled into inc/ so that they have better fall-back support.

Doing so will not be difficult, but will probably have to wait until I get back from vacation in a week or so. I'll try to prioritize it as my non-$work time permits sometime soon after I return.

Okay I will go down both paths you have suggested.

I wanted to confirm. Is this bug report in the correct place? It looks to me the issue is with ExtUtils::CppGuess (which I also maintain). However, I fired up a Win7 VirtualBox guest (my only available Windows environment) and installed both EU::MM and Inline::CPP successfully.

Yes, I believe this is a bug in ExtUtils::CppGuess, I could not find a repo to file an issue for EU::CG so I filed the issue in this repo instead.
This issue is easy to miss if you run cpanm -n because it will skip all tests and the error will not be shown. I do still receive this error in a fresh install of Ubuntu Linux when I run cpanm with all tests enabled, so unfortunately the issue has not fixed itself over time. I do not have Windows (only Linux), so I can't speak to that aspect of the issue.
Is there anything I can do to help?

The repo for EU::CppGuess is at https://github.com/tsee/extutils-cppguess . I am also co-maint on it, and the most recent releaser, so it is still under slightly active maintenance. My intent in due course will be to make EU::CppG data-driven rather than an if-ladder, and to pull in all the detection stuff that's currently also in I::CPP so that everything is in one place. Contributions are of course welcome.

Does your comment relate to the solution proposed by @daoswald in the comment above?

"The best immediate solution is to modify Inline::CPP so that the ExtUtils::CPPGuess module becomes a "recommends" rather than "requires", and so that Makefile.PL is able to recover gracefully in its absence. The right way to do this is to modify the meta produced by Makefile.PL, and also to modify the modules bundled into inc/ so that they have better fall-back support.

Doing so will not be difficult, but will probably have to wait until I get back from vacation in a week or so. I'll try to prioritize it as my non-$work time permits sometime soon after I return."

Yes it does. I cannot bring myself to believe it is a good idea that Inline::CPP and EU:CppG independently do C++ compiler detection, slightly differently.

Ideas evolve! Now the pressure is on me to actually follow through with this :-)

Closing this, since 0.13+ should fix this or at least provide more info. If it is in fact not fixed, please re-open and provide the info that the new, more verbose tests provide!
