Subject: Prerequisite Variable::Magic not defined
The current version of HTML::FormFu doesn't seem to have Variable::Magic defined as a prerequisite or at least the tests fail when Variable::Magic is not installed.
HTML-FormFu doesn't use Variable::Magic itself, but I can see on the cpan-deps site [1] that Variable::Magic is listed as a dependency of B::Hooks::EndOfScope, which is a dependency of namespace::clean, which is a dependency of Data::Visitor, which HTML-FormFu requires. This will at least ensure that any clean installations will work. I don't think it would be correct to add it as a direct prerequisite of HTML-FormFu, so I don't think I'll take any action on this. Your install logs should give an indication of which module in HTML-FormFu's dependency chain actually caused this, if you want to ensure the error can't happen again. Thanks, [1] http://deps.cpantesters.org/?module=HTML::FormFu;perl=latest

I did an `upgrade` within cpan.

I agree.

I will have a look!

Thanks, Carl!
