Build Config::Model

Run

dzil build 

or

dzil test

dzil may complain about missing EmailNotify or Twitter plugin. You may ignore this or edit dist.ini to comment out the last 2 sections. These are useful only to the author when releasing a new version.

dzil may also return an error like Cannot determine local time zone. In this case, you should specify explicitely your timezone in a TZ environement variable. E.g run dzil this way:

TZ="Europe/Paris" dzil test

The list of possible timezones is provided by DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog documentation.
