But I get your point - to silence | the warning, either the dependency should be added, or the Makefile.PL | patched. What's best practice in these cases? As far as I can tell, there are good chances that Test::Simple is already installed, but I would not bring a SOMETHING_DEPENDS if it does not really depends on it. if a developper wants to make test, he's likely to have it already, and if not, he's likely to be smart enough to find out how to add = it. All this to say that I don't think adding a dependency just to shut up Makefile.PL is a good thing. --=20 Mathieu Arnold --==========5ABFC51C2EAE1A2568FE========== Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (MingW32) iQEUAwUBQCOo7VvROjYJ63c1AQK8kQf3WIp77RXoD6cq8C8Fh9GAqbCPllHcHWML ShOO1KGyLKc8nsM/8vWqREyAtqXIpgyINCOPbT/02wBEVJpMAkgOTxcoBRu3S9V/ o94KOPsT/zHxGpCMR4rEeBHthon4bxKkulPREQ6MTO/8lszaFE1tLtrnuTEvAtwu wA0LUzrNgoLykF7vY34J/wgbexT+9J/PtjGafsR/Oxc39XKE3yj2PR7m5S2fKVgl IW6HgHuoANsxVqwXRcs2SSjy1v9WBQpkzVQ+rqDisQqMQjBRLio/zYhmMjvKpM+Y I413R87tldXOb8Xk48UjeyAWlpvU5UJM0Cs63Me4ubJLICkwA2ke =MwSv -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --==========5ABFC51C2EAE1A2568FE==========--
