Subject: request: remove dependency on Perl::Critic
Perl::Critic does not install under 5.19.x, and so modules upstream of it, such as this one, do not install cleanly. This has a knock-on effect on several Dist::Zilla modules and bundles. Is it possible to remove the dependency on Perl::Critic in this module?
I agree. It looks like the dependency is just Perl::Critic::Utils. Perhaps that can be forked off into a PPI::Utils (or some other name) module and stripped of the few Perl::Critic dependencies (like exceptions). Needing all of Perl::Critic just to have PPI helpers is a shame.
