I'd think the [EMAIL PROTECTED] would decide, preferably with 3 +1's on this list. > Or do you suggest to make a special case for mod_perl.pm? > > And if you follow your own suggestion, you will have to completely exclude > libapreq2 from indexing, preventing anybody from seeing it via CPAN clients. We could index "mod_perl2" and "libapreq2" (note the "2") modules, and tell new developers to put those at the top of their prereq list. Once those prereqs are satisfied, the other Apache::* dependencies will be taken care of, so the fact that Apache::Request is indexed in a libapreq1 tarball shouldn't matter, should it? I'm guessing about how cpan actually resolves these dependencies, so if I'm wrong please say so. -- Joe Schaefer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
