A lot -- If you look at the page I linked, you still have a bunch of stuff hanging off PPI, Log::Dispatchouli, Config::MVP::Reader, and MooseX::*, plus many other random things. It shouldn't be hard for you to come up with an exact number.	[reply]

I have no idea. I'll try to find time tomorrow to answer your question. No criticism of Dist::Zilla was intended, my post was merely informational. Some modules do a lot, and I think it's right that they use CPAN to do the "lotness".	[reply]

I had to install some undeclared prereqs first: `cpanp i Module::Metadata Perl::OSType` [download] Then, `cpanp i Test::Most Moose LWP DateTime` [download] added another 53 modules, plus the 3 prereqs, for a total of 56. So, Dist::Zilla needs another another 76 modules.	[reply] [d/l] [select]
