Subject: | LWP::Simple not listed in prerequisites, and used without explicit permission |
I don't know when Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee::Distros.pm was added to the
distro -- it is not mentioned in Changes --, but as of 0.82 it uses
LWP::Simple, which is not listed among the prerequisites in META.yml.
Not having LWP::Simple installed will break the test suite as well as
cpants_lint.pl. I'd rather like to opt-in to Internet downloads when
analyzing modules anyway, so not requiring any download tools would be a
good thing. You could check whether the module is present before you
use it. Please add a configuration parameter defaulting to "no
downloads" while you are at it.
