Bug ID: 1613504 Summary: Should WWW::Mechanize require 'Test::Builder'? Product: Fedora Version: 27 Component: perl-WWW-Mechanize Assignee: emman...@seyman.fr Reporter: rc040...@freenet.de QA Contact: extras...@fedoraproject.org CC: emman...@seyman.fr, jose.p.oliveira....@gmail.com, ktdre...@ktdreyer.com, perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, trem...@tremble.org.uk Description of problem: WWW::Mechanize has a hidden dep on Test::Builder: ... WWW-Mechanize-1.88/lib/WWW/Mechanize.pm: require HTML::TreeBuilder; WWW-Mechanize-1.88/lib/WWW/Mechanize.pm: my $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new(); WWW-Mechanize-1.88/lib/WWW/Mechanize.pm:stripped. This feature requires I<HTML::TreeBuilder> to be installed, WWW-Mechanize-1.88/README.md: stripped. This feature requires _HTML::TreeBuilder_ to be installed, ... This forces some users of WWW::Mechanize (e.g. perl-Test-WWW-Mechanize) to explicitly BR: perl(HTML::TreeBuilder), even though these packages do not directly require HTML::TreeBuilder. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): All versions of perl-WWW-Mechanize in all active Fedoras. Additional info: I am not sure, what to do about it, but I rather lean for WWW::Mechanize to "R: HTML::Builder", because this avoids having to add deps for non-obvious reason. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ perl-devel mailing list -- perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to perl-devel-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org Fedora Code of Conduct: https://getfedora.org/code-of-conduct.html List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/AF3OD6NIZOU6JC5CPLABS7ZMWSZL4ZJS/
