Subject: Apache2::Request is an undeclared prereq
Gantry's tests require Apache2::Request but it isn't listed as a prerequisite. Not a huge problem of course :)

Gantry can run on mod_perl 1, 2 and CGI. This is the reason Apache2::Request can't be a prereq. However, Gantry does have some tests for Apache2::Request. If mod_perl2 is detected on your box then the mod_perl2 tests will run which includes and specific test for Apache2::Request. If Apache2::Request doesn't exist then it will fail with some libapreq2 install instructions. If you know of a better way to handle this, I'm all ears. Thanks for the feedback, Tim On 6/15/07, Andy Armstrong via RT <bug-Gantry@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text

Easy. Once you detect that mod_perl2 is available, then test for the existence of Apache2::Request: eval "use Apache2::Request"; if($@) { # Oops that didn't work! plan skip_all => "Need Apache2::Request to use mod_perl2"; } It is ugly to have these tests fail because an optional module is assumed to exist merely because something else does. This also makes it very difficult to compile Gantry into a Debian package. All the best, Jacinta

Fair enough, test fixed and committed. Thanks for the suggestion Jacinta. -Tim On Thu, Sep 25, 2008 at 2:11 AM, jarich@perltraining.com.au via RT <bug-Gantry@rt.cpan.org> wrote: Show quoted text
