Bug #124058 for Mail-Box: Useless dependency on Mail::Transport

Thu Jan 11 10:23:37 2018 ppisar [...] redhat.com - Ticket created

Subject:

Useless dependency on Mail::Transport

Makefile.PL declares Mail::Transport 3.0 as run-time dependency, but the module is nowhere used from Mail-Box. I think it should be removed from the metadata.

Mail-Box v3 is one of the four components of Mail-Box v2: the distribution got split-up. For backwards compatibility, all components of v2 will get installed when you ask for v3. However, some new parts can be used without Mail::Box. -- Regards, MarkOv ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mark Overmeer MSc MARKOV Solutions Mark@Overmeer.net solutions@overmeer.net http://Mark.Overmeer.net http://solutions.overmeer.net

This will not be changed, to be backwards compatible with MailBox before v3
