Subject: Config::Any::General requires a non-existent Config::General
In https://metacpan.org/source/HAARG/Config-Any-0.32/lib/Config/Any/General.pm, we see the following line: sub requires_all_of { [ 'Config::General' => '2.47' ] } That version does not appear to exist. It's referenced in the Changes file (https://metacpan.org/changes/distribution/Config-General), but the next version, 2.48, mentions an issue with the 2.47 upload. This caused an issue with our Carton install today because for me (others didn't have this issue), Config::Any kept trying to force an install of Config::General 2.47 (and not a newer version). I had to force an install of a new version to work around this. The specification of 2.47 for Config::General first appeared in Config::Any::General in 0.30. Best, Ovid

This seems like a problem with your Carton setup. Specifying a version minimum, even if that specific version doesn't exist, should not cause any problems with normal install tools. Additionally, 2.47 does exist (https://metacpan.org/release/TLINDEN/Config-General-2.47) and can be found by cpanm. 2.47 does appear to be a broken release, but that's because of a compile time error and thus a test failure, not a failure to find the release. I could bump the prerequisite to 2.48, but I believe your issue lies elsewhere.

I was suspecting that, but wasn't sure. Show quoted text

I wonder if that should be considered a bug in metacpan. I assumed it somehow wasn't indexed because when I select the "Jump to version" dropdown on the Config::General pages, 2.47 doesn't appear. Hence, my assuming it wasn't there! Show quoted text

Again, I suspect you're right as other devs for my client didn't report this issue. But it still might be nice to get a bump as it's pointing to a broken release. In any event, thank you for your time, Graham! Best, Ovid
