Yeah, yours is much simpler because Mail::Address doesn't have an import method, which is the entire complexity in the Error.pm wrapper. I'll probably submit a wrapper-for-the-wrappers patch at some point after this gets in, i.e. both of these would become: package Git::Error; use Git::WrapCPAN 'Error'; 1; package Git::Mail::Address; use Git::WrapCPAN 'Mail::Address'; 1; Then the Git::WrapCPAN package would do all the magic the Git::Error wrapper is doing now, but with a configurable package. But this doesn't have to wait for that. > I would also be fine with using our local copy unconditionaly. Some notes on your patch: * If I comment out your whole eval/or-do I was puzzled because tests still pass, turns out the eval { require Email::Valid } will bring in Mail::Address from CPAN. Not a bug, just something to note for others poking at this. * You didn't update t/t9000/test.pl to use the wrapper, which I thought was a bug until I realized this is built on top of gitster/mm/send-email-fallback-to-local-mail-address.
