[aur-general] Perl-Moose dependency failure.
It seems that https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/perl-moose requires version 1.45 of List::Util, right now the tests are what fail, however the version provided in CORE is like 1.42_2 and even the runtime dependency for List::Util calls for version 1.45 so I surmise that all manner of weird runtime errors would occur in the modules that depend on Moose, lists/arrays going wonky etc... I propose a temporary buttwag by just creating a perl-list-utils145 PKGBUILD, until the Perl devs put 1.45 or higher into core... does anyone have any objections to this? it's ugly and rather temporary too, meaning it'll have to be removed eventually, but I can't just leave perl-moose out of date until 1.45 goes core.

Any reason you don't just call it perl-list-utils? That way it could be used to always get the most recent version of that distribution and not just 1.45. Florian

Well, that's because the parent module, Scalar::List::Utils is marked as a provides in the core repo perl pkgbuild, so it will error out saying that the module is 'blacklisted' from AUR otherwise I'd be all over it. -- Thanks, John D Jones III UNIX Zealot; Perl Lover unixgeek1972@gmail.com jnbek1972@gmail.com http://zoelife4u.org/ Where Earth and Spirit Unite

Alright. For perl I'd actually prefer this solution given that core perl has a dedicated directory (core_perl) vs. CPAN modules that go into vendor_perl. @Lukas: Could we have exceptions to the blacklist for any provides by perl? Florian
