Subject: WWW-Google-Places high bar for dependencies
Can you re-factor the code so as to lower the bar on dependencies. The API is quite trivial but due to the package's many dependencies. It cannot be easily installed. It appears that it could be written for 5.6 compatibility with very little effort. Not even the newest CentOS 6.5 meets your Moose requirements. CentOS release 6.5 (Final) $ rpm -q perl-Moose perl-Moose-1.15-1.el6.x86_64

CPAN dists are best built on top of Moo, rather than Moose, so as to be installable in more locations (as well as not requiring a compiler).
Hi Thanks for reporting the issue. I am working on it and will be uploading the patch very soon. On Wed Jun 18 21:17:49 2014, MRDVT wrote: Show quoted text

Hi, Just uploaded WWW::Google::Places v0.05 with dependency downgraded from Moose to Moo. It is light weight interface to common library WWW::Google::UserAgent. Please review. Many Thanks. Best Regards, Mohammad S Anwar
Closing as the dependencies have been downsized.
