Thank you for reporting. I think that this is caused by #127430.

Hi Claus, I am not totally sure, but I think you should simply add a `PREREQ_PM` (or `TEST_REQUIRES`) entry in your `Makefile.PL` for `Graphics::ColorNames::HTML`. Indeed, the error preventing installation is the following: t/WWW_HTML.t ...... Cannot load color naming scheme module Graphics::ColorNames::HTML at t/WWW_HTML.t line 8. t/WWW_HTML.t ...... 1/18 # Looks like your test exited with 2 just after 1. t/WWW_HTML.t ...... Dubious, test returned 2 (wstat 512, 0x200) due to this line: tie my %colors, 'Graphics::ColorNames', 'HTML'; If one first install `Graphics::ColorNames::HTML`, everything runs fine. Best regards, Denis

Thank you for your suggestion. This is indeed unrelated to the older bug in G::CN where sometimes color schemes would not load. As Graphics::ColorNames::HTML is now deprecated, it seems more appropriate to simply remove the dependency. G::CN::HTML was only used in testing to make sure that C::GN::WWW produces the same results.
