Possible missing dependency declaration: Test::Identity?

[Cnly]

When running ./install-deps.pl on Debian Testing, the script fails at:

<omitted>
Running Build test for PEVANS/IO-Async-SSL-0.22.tar.gz
t/00use.t ............... ok   
t/01upgrade.t ........... Can't locate Test/Identity.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Test::Identity module) (@INC contains: <omitted>
<omitted>
Stopping: 'install' failed for 'IO::Async::SSL'.
<omitted>

Running cpan install Test::Identity (as instructed above) and then ./install-deps.pl again fixes the problem.

Does Test::Identity need to be in cpanfile?

I don't see any use of Test::Identity in SyTest itself, it looks like it might be required by the IO::Async::SSL package though? Could it be a bug there?

I'm installing a local debian testing box to test.

[richvdh]

yes, if anything, that sounds like a bug in IO::Async::SSL which should be raised on its bug tracker.

Interestingly, I didn't run into this problem on a fresh install of Debian testing. Problems I did run into though that are poorly documented:

• Installing build-essential is required on Debian/Ubuntu. Not sure exactly which package though but the error was related to make
• Installing postgres build dependencies are required: sudo apt install libpq-dev
• cpan install File::Which needed to be done manually

Yeah, Test::Identity was automatically installed for me as part of running ./install-deps.pl:

sounds like we can close this?
