The CPAN::SQLite module is dependent on Compress:Zlib, via CPAN::SQLite::Index, but does not have it anywhere in its dependency tree. Attempting to install without it results in failed tests due to 'Can’t locate Compress/Zlib.pm in @INC' errors. -- So many books, so little time... - Anon.

I thought I had handled this case; CPAN::SQLite: http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/htdocs/CPAN-SQLite/Makefile.PL.html requires IO::Zlib: http://cpan.uwinnipeg.ca/htdocs/IO-Zlib/Makefile.PL.html which itself requires Compress::Zlib. Wasn't Compress::Zlib installed when IO::Zlib was installed?

I don't know how that dependency tree resolved itself. When I installed CPAN:SQLite, I just set it on automatic and left it alone. All I can say is that after it finished automatically resolving all dependencies, running: Show quoted text

CPAN> test CPAN::SQLite

got me 'Can’t locate Compress/Zlib.pm in @INC', and after running: Show quoted text

CPAN> install Compress::Zlib

it didn't anymore. 2009/5/16 RKOBES via RT <bug-CPAN-SQLite@rt.cpan.org> Show quoted text

I'm still not sure why Compress::Zlib wouldn't have been resolved, but I've added it as a separate dependency in the next version of CPAN::SQLite. Thanks for reporting this.
