Subject: Unchecked dependency in Tree::Simple

To: bug-Tree-Simple [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Jonathan Stowe <jns [...] gellyfish.com>
Hi, I was just trying to install Tree::Simple and it was failing its tests horribly with "Error: Weak references are not implemented in the version of perl" - it seems that it does actually depend on a particular version of Scalar::Util, I have just upgraded the version of Scalar-List-Utils and it seems to work fine. You might want to stick the dependency in the Makefile.PL /J\ -- This e-mail is sponsored by http://www.integration-house.com/

Tree-Simple-1.16/META.yml lists Scalar::Util 1.18 as requirement. But 1.18 isn't actually required, as any version of Scalar::Util will work, provided it was compiled with weak reference support.

Er, then it should check for this at build time rather than letting it be built and failing tests. However the report I made predates the release of Tree-Simple-1.16 by three weeks. /J\ -- This e-mail is sponsored by http://www.integration-house.com/

requirement of Task::Weaken will help. -- Alexandr Ciornii, http://chorny.net

Version 1.17 on CPAN makes loading of Scalar::Util::weaken, completely optional. THis should take care of your issue. - Stevan
