Re: Will I break CPAN?

Have you seen Test::DependentModules?

[Tux]

Yes, I did, after reading Moose test file I was pointed to, which also uses MetaCPAN::API. By that time my own script already worked.

Moose does have a good reason to roll its own. Look at the list of expected failures, which they nicely documented.

I used the modules I already had available and did not realize I also had MetaCPAN::API installed. Now I do.

I see a value for all three approaches. Maybe I'll simplify to using Test::DependentModules now that I am aware of it. I did look, but probably typoed on Dependant :/

$ modlist depending
$ modlist dependant

$ modlist dependent

My English can probably be improved a lot
