| Subject: | Unspecified dependency on Sub::Exporter results in test suite failure |
The dependency on Sub::Exporter isn't specified, since the whole point of this module is to
make it optional, but you *do* require it in the test suite. That means you can install this
module and use it without Sub::Exporter, but you can't test it. The test suite fails with:

To resolve this, I think you can probably get away with specifying Sub::Exporter as a test
dependency, or you could just refine it a normal runtime dependency. Alternately, make that
entire test conditional on Sub::Exporter being installed at all.
I suspect you didn't see this simply because you probably built and tested this in an
environment where S::E was already installed.
