Subject: Depending on Test::Class
Hi. I notice that you module is depending on Test::Class. Test:Class have a high test failure rate, and this means that a lot of the people that want to install you module won't be able to. Worse, you can't even see this failures in your CPAN testers reports, as dependency fail is not reported. Can you please fix that? Thanks, Shmuel.
Hi Shmuel Thanks for your request. However, I'm a little puzzled by what you want me to do exactly. My test suite is based on Test::Class so I'd either have to rewrite it or abandon my tests completely. Has this issue been brought up with the Test::Class authors? Are they working on a fix?

I don't want you to do anything. Just to be aware that your module is not installable on large percentage of the clients, as the CPAN testers don't give you this information. What will you do with this information? Show quoted text

Every author receive the testing results by email, so obviously they are aware of it. And as this is module's last release was half a year ago, I assume that they are not planing to fix it. Shmuel.
module was fixed. sorry to bother you.
