Note to future self:  the next time that you try to install Catalyst on 5.10 and your project needs Catalyst::Plugin::FormValidator::Simple, here's the problems you're going to have:

- It won't install
- because FormValidator::Simple won't install
- because DateTime::Format::Strptime won't install
- because it has a buggy test file.  (!)

Here's the fix: 

- sudo emacs /Users/dstorrs/.cpan/build/DateTime-Format-Strptime-1.0702-G9OjjA/t/004_locale_defaults.t   (Note:  The directory might be slightly different)

- Change the following lines as shown (only the first and third change; you're just adding a period after the 'déc') :

  ['fr',  '%x',   '31 déc 1998'],                                         
  ['fr',  '%X',   '12:34:56'],
  ['fr',  '%c',   '31 déc 1998 12:34:56'],                                

...to the following...

  ['fr',  '%x',   '31 déc. 1998'],                                         
  ['fr',  '%X',   '12:34:56'],
  ['fr',  '%c',   '31 déc. 1998 12:34:56'],

- Build DateTime::Format::Strptime to verify that all is kosher.

- Build C::P::FV::S

- Smile and post the solution to LiveJournal for future reference.
