The cycle is more complicated than that. Bear in mind this is for a bootstrapping situation where none of these packages is currently available as a build dependency. We have: perl-Params-Validate build-requires perl(Test::Pod::LinkCheck) perl-Test-Pod-LinkCheck build-requires perl(Moose) perl-Moose build-requires perl(DateTime) perl-DateTime build-requires perl(Params::Validate) So currently none of these packages or anything that depends on them can be built in a bootstrap environment. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
