Bug #115236 for GraphViz: Unneccessary Test2 dependency

Fri Jun 10 06:43:12 2016 ilmari+cpan [...] ilmari.org - Ticket created

Subject:

Unneccessary Test2 dependency

Please revert the recent change from Test::More to Test2::Bundle::Extended. Test2 is incompatible with several other modules, see https://metacpan.org/pod/Test2::Transition#STILL-BROKEN, which precludes upgrading GraphViz in environments that use any of those (my specific issue is Test::Aggregate). As far as I can tell, the only Test2::Bundle::Extended feature that's being used is bail_out(), which is available in Test::More as BAIL_OUT(). Thanks, ilmari

Any word on moving this forward?

My apologies for the delay. V 2.22 is now on CPAN.

This is still essentially un-fixed, as the dependencies still state they need Test::More >= 1.300 somewhere.

https://metacpan.org/source/RSAVAGE/GraphViz-2.23/Makefile.PL#L74

--- Timeline ---

Version 2.21 raised the version requirements of Test::More for its use of Test2:: stuff.

Version 2.22 reverted the use of Test2 stuff, but didn't lower the version requirements.

This however still means its forcing use of the new Test2 stuff and forcing people to upgrade where they don't appear to need to.

V 2.24 is on CPAN with a requirement of Test::More V 1.001002.

Hi Kent V 2.24 is in CPAN but the PAUSE indexer died with a lock wait timeout. Will try later to force a re-index. On 27/12/16 05:30, Kent Fredric via RT wrote: Show quoted text
