#13745: p5-archive-tar: dependency on p5-test-harness should be removed ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Reporter: vinc17@macports.org | Owner: narf_tm@macports.org Type: defect | Status: new Priority: Normal | Milestone: Port Bugs Component: ports | Version: 1.6.0 Resolution: | Keywords: ----------------------------------+----------------------------------------- Comment (by narf_tm@macports.org): I can't understand why the dependancy should be removed. It IS a dependancy. The Portfile doesn't have some_dependancies or most_dependancies. I have been complaining about how MacPorts' Perl has handled installing modules for years. Instead of fixing the real problem we are coming up with every way we can think of to get around it. Like removing dependancies that aren't REALLY need just because nobody will fix the actual Perl install. And then there is my favorite solution... Let's have modules replace core modules buy requiring force. Please read my reply to #12710. I really think it is time to fix the real problem. -- Ticket URL: <http://trac.macosforge.org/projects/macports/ticket/13745#comment:4> MacPorts </projects/macports> Ports system for Mac OS
