Subject:

Circular dependency

(This report is for 2.014, RT did not let me select this version) When trying to test IO::Compress::Bzip2 using CPAN.pm, I ran into a circular dependency error: Catching error: ' Recursive dependency detected: IO::Compress::Bzip2 (have: 2.012; want: 2.014) => PMQS/IO-Compress-Bzip2-2.014.tar.gz => IO::Uncompress::UnLzf (have: 2.012; requires: 2.014) => PMQS/IO-Compress-Lzf-2.014.tar.gz => IO::Uncompress::Inflate (have: 2.012; requires: 2.014) => PMQS/IO-Compress-Zlib-2.014.tar.gz => IO::Compress::Lzop (have: 2.012; requires: 2.014) => PMQS/IO-Compress-Lzop-2.014.tar.gz => IO::Uncompress::RawInflate (have: 2.012; requires: 2.014) => PMQS/IO-Compress-Zlib-2.014.tar.gz.

It seems that the circular dependency happens in IO-Compress-Zlib. IO::Compress::Gzip::Constants happens to be handled like a PREREQ_PM, but is already included in the distribution. Regards, Slaven

Thanks for the bug report Slaven. I'm already putting a fix together to deal with this problem. Should be uploaded to CPAN later today. Paul
