  Wed May 05 14:36:13 2010 TODDR [...] cpan.org - Ticket created
Subject: XML::SAX should not distribute XML::SAX::Base package
Including XML::SAX::Base seems to have no value since it's a separate package. Could I reccommend releasing this to resolve the issue and then re-index the XML::SAX::Base package from PAUSE? Patch attached to modify XML::SAX
Subject: XML-SAX-0.96.txt

Message body is not shown because it is too large.

I completely agree. I just ran into the same problem described here: http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl4lib/2011/05/msg2906.html

As best I Can tell, Base has been removed in a previous release but now Makefile.PL needs a BUILD_REQUIRES clause for XML::SAX::Base

Is there any reason why you feel that the dependency on XML::SAX::Base should be moved from PREREQ_PM to BUILD_REQUIRES? As I understand it, BUILD_REQUIRES is for dependencies that are only needed at build time whereas XML::SAX::PurePerl needs XML::SAX::Base at runtime.

Ah. I didn't realize that. I did a sloppy grep of the distro and missed it. In which case this ticket is resolved?

Yes it is resolved. I think the same issue was raised on another ticket and I only closed one of them. Cheers Grant
