Subject: | Incorrect File::Spec prereq in Makefile.PL |
The Authen::Captcha module depends on File::Spec's splitdir() object
method. This method is not in all versions of File::Spec (0.6 on our
system, for example, does not have it) but the prereqs in
Authen::Captcha's Makefile.PL only require File::Spec have a version
number => 0.
If the method is missing, 'make test' returns the following error:
Can't locate object method "splitdir" via package "File::Spec" at
blib/lib/Authen/Captcha.pm line 27.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/1.t line 22.
The File::Spec problem is documented here in reference to another
package's prerequisites:
