Subject: unneeded dependency on Rinci?
Rinci is listed as a runtime prereq but doesn't seem to be used anywhere. This inflates the dependency tree to a huge extent -- is it needed?

Yup, I'm in the (leisurely) process of moving it to DevelopRecommends, but so far have only gone through with a couple of dozens of dists (out of about 200). Show quoted text

I wouldn't say "huge extent", Rinci only depends on two other spec dists DefHash and Sah and those dists have no deps. But yeah, this dependencies express "spec conformance" and not actual runtime code dependency.
Fixed in 0.05, thanks!
