| Subject: | AutoPrereqs should scan xt/author/ and xt/release/ to report Prereqs/DevelopRequires deps |
Some code in a distribution may be only for developer (patcher) usage,
and will never be used either at runtime or during the install process
on a final user machine.
This is the case for extra tests for author and release testing. Such
tests are usually distributed in the xt/ directory, respectively in
xt/author/ and xt/release/ as established by the ExtraTests plugin.
Those directories should be scanned for dependencies, and those should
be reported in Meta as "develop" / "requires".
