Subject: Fails with Mixin::Linewise::Readers 0.101
I only discovered it by chance and there is already a newer version (0.102). Rating as unimportant but important enough to document it. This is a great chance to say thank you for your well conceived t/00-all_prereqs.t, it alone made it possible to diagnose the faulty dependency. Sample fail report: http://www.cpantesters.org/cpan/report/85205f96-43e6-11e3-a781-ea16f34aa4a3 Mixin::Linewise::Readers 0.102 fixe the test again and should probably become a new dependency declaration. HTH && Thanks && Regards,
This bug should be filed against Pod::Eventual, not Pod::Loom. Pod::Loom doesn't use Mixin::Linewise::Readers directly. And yes, this is exactly the sort of dependency-of-a-dependency that I wrote 00-all_prereqs.t to diagnose. (I got bit by a similar situation before, and it wasn't easy to figure out what was going on.) Feel free to include it with your own modules. (I normally add it using a Dist::Zilla plugin, but it's actually a static file that could just be copied into your dist.)

Tickets can be moved to a new queue by editing the 'queue' line in the bug's metadata.
Reported also as https://github.com/rjbs/Pod-Eventual/issues/1 against Pod::Eventual WRT the test script t/00-all_prereqs.t, could there be a future-friendlier solution than to copy a static file? I very much like the idea to have the test script reused, but it would be sad if it would grow in various directions by various authors. A canonical place to get it from and a version number would help in preventing bastardization. Do you have a suggestion for how to proceed? Thanks,
