CC: RWSTAUNER [...] cpan.org
Subject: Test::Aggregate dependency is problematic
Test::Aggregate is incompatible with recent Test::More, see https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=100035 This means that HTML::FormFu cannot be installed on systems where Test::More was upgraded from CPAN, and also cannot be installed for bleadperl (5.25.x) and the next stable perl (5.26.x), where the recent Test::More is already in the base installation. I don't know what's easier: fix Test::Aggregate or rewrite HTML::FormFu's test suite to not use Test::Aggregate. Regards, Slaven

The easiest thing to do would be to rename t-aggregate/* to t/* and remove t/aggregate.t.
Removed the use of Test::Aggregate in commit ce45c445231c49fc9ad044428714adf1aa3b0a98 https://github.com/fireartist/HTML-FormFu/commit/ce45c445231c49fc9ad044428714adf1aa3b0a98 This will go forward to 2.04
Unfortunately this is a long known issue with Test::Aggregate - https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=100035 - https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=64604 Redoing the internals of Test::Aggregate will be no small feat. Several people have expressed interest, but little progress has been made. On Mon Aug 22 11:53:01 2016, SREZIC wrote: Show quoted text

2.04-TRIAL onwards (release 2.05) no longer use Test::Aggregate
