| Subject: | requires() fails if the requirement has dependencies. |
The attached Makefile.PL and output illustrates the problem. When using
MI, if your dependencies have unresolved dependencies the build for the
dependency is considered a failure. This does not occur when simply
installing the dependency under the CPAN shell.
In my environment I do not have File::Find::Rule nor Number::Compare
installed to trigger the bug. I've tried it also on Test::Dependencies
(lacking it and File::Find::Rule) and JSAN::Client (lacking it and
HTML::Location).
I noticed this bug because I am unable to install anything which depends
on Test::Dependencies without first manually installing TD. This
includes Class::Accessor::Named.
