Subject: Hidden dependency

The package Socket::GetAddrInfo is used in the testing of this module, but is not listed as a dependency of the package. If the Socket::GetAddrInfo is not installed, this causes the tests to fail, as the package can not be found in @INC. Please add Socket::GetAddrInfo to the list of dependencies to avoid this problem. To those that want to install this package, please install Socket::GetAddrInfo prior to installing FCGI::Async to avoid this problem. -- David Nuttall Course Developer Starnix Inc.

Curious... Socket::GetAddrInfo isn't being used directly, but it is used indirectly, as IO::Async uses it. This should have been installed as part of the dependencies of IO::Async, which FCGI::Async builds on. Can you show me a full output of "cpan FCGI::Async" on a box with none of these three modules already installed? -- Paul Evans
No response in ~4 months. Closing ticket. Please reopen if the issue is still outstanding and we can look into it further. -- Paul Evans
