Is this a variation of no-dot-in- at INC?
In the source directory of libcpandb-perl / the CPANDB distribution:
% ll inc/Module/Install/DSL.pm
-rw-rw-r-- 1 gregoa gregoa 2424 Mar 30 2013 inc/Module/Install/DSL.pm
% perl Makefile.PL
Can't locate inc/Module/Install/DSL.pm in @INC (you may need to install the inc::Module::Install::DSL module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.36.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.36 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36 /usr/share/perl/5.36 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at Makefile.PL line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 1.
If I install libmodule-install-perl 1.21-1 (i.e. without the DSL
module):
% perl Makefile.PL
Can't locate inc/Module/Install/DSL.pm in @INC (you may need to install the inc::Module::Install::DSL module) (@INC contains: /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36.0 /usr/local/share/perl/5.36.0 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.36 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.36 /usr/share/perl/5.36 /usr/local/lib/site_perl) at Makefile.PL line 1.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at Makefile.PL line 1.
aka the same.
If I install libmodule-install-perl 1.19-2 (which still ships
/usr/share/perl5/Module/Install/DSL.pm):
% perl Makefile.PL
Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Warning: prerequisite LWP::Online 1.07 not found.
Warning: prerequisite ORLite 1.51 not found.
Warning: prerequisite ORLite::Mirror 1.20 not found.
Generating a Unix-style Makefile
Writing Makefile for CPANDB
Writing MYMETA.yml and MYMETA.json
% git st
## master...origin/master
M MYMETA.json
?? MYMETA.yml
?? Makefile
So my description yesterday was misleading, sorry for that -- in fact
inc/ is always ignored, no matter if libmodule-install-perl is
installed or not, and the failures appear when there is no
Module::Install::DSL in the packaged M-I.

That's perl 5.36.0 on Debian/unstable.

And that's the oldest perl I have (in Debian lingo, that's from
oldoldstable :))
Cc'ing the Debian perl maintainers who might have more insights.
