[Vienna-pm] Check external program version in Module::Build

Hi,

I want to check for the version of an external program (java and some
additional tools) from Build.PL like I do with the 'requires' hash for perl
modules.

So far I came up with 2 solutions which are not really "elegant":

- write a test which will be executed in ./Build test
- write perl code that dies with an according message in Build.PL

Any ideas?

Cheers, Roland
