It's worth noting t
I haven't looked at your code, but I assume what you're doing is exporting
a sub from each module, and something in each of those modules is calling
each of those subs in turn, using the exported symbol. This is indeed an
unresolvable circular dependency because unqualified sub names must be

The 'dist' option is documented in Module::CPANfile, but the 'url' option
can only be found in the t/options.t test in the distribution -- so it must
be implemented at least partially, somehow. Maybe miyagawa can comment?

You can install these modules again by setting PERL_USE_UNSAFE_INC=1 in
your environment while installing.
You can also install locally patched modules with carton by specifying a
'file:///' path in cpanfile:
requires 'Foo::Bar', '0.123', url =>
'file:///local/path/Foo-Bar-0.123.tar.gz';

Given that there is so much prior art in this space already -- is it useful
to release one more variant to the CPAN, vs. simply keeping it in your

other?

It would help to see the mail from PAUSE that lists the errors. But the
