Defaults to 'true'.baseThe directory CPANPLUS keeps all it's build and state information in. Defaults to ~/.cpanplus.buildflagsAny flags to be passed to 'perl Build.PL'. See perldoc Module::Build for details. Defaults to an empty string.cpantestBoolean flag to indicate whether or not to mail test results of module installations to http://testers.cpan.org. Defaults to 'false'.cpantest_mxString holding an explicit mailserver to use when sending out emails for http://testers.cpan.org. An empty string will use your system settings. Defaults to an empty string.debugBoolean flag to enable or disable extensive debuggging information. Defaults to 'false'.dist_typeDefault distribution type to use when building packages. See cpan2dist or CPANPLUS::Dist for details. An empty string will not use any package building software. Defaults to an empty string.emailEmail address to use for anonymous ftp access and as from address when sending emails. Defaults to an example.com address.extractdirString containing the directory where fetched archives should be extracted. An empty string will use a directory under your base directory. Defaults to an empty string.fetchdirString containing the directory where fetched archives should be stored. An empty string will use a directory under your base directory. Defaults to an empty string.flushBoolean indicating whether build failures, cache dirs etc should be flushed after every operation or not.
