[p5-net-twitter] [@3.180.10] missing dependency MooseX::Aliases

[david.crook@…]

I am on OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion and have XCode 4.4.1

I attempted to install p5-net-twitter package on perl 5.12.4. I got the following runtime/compilation error with perl when trying to run a script using the module, making the p5-net-twitter module unusable

Can't locate MooseX/Aliases.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.12.4 /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.4 /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4/darwin-thread-multi-2level /opt/local/lib/perl5/5.12.4 /opt/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl .) at /opt/local/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.12.4/Net/Twitter/Core.pm line 4.

I think the following is the reason. While the portfile for p5-net-twitter includes a dependency for p5-moosex-multiinitarg ./Core.pm of Net::Twitter has :

use MooseX::Aliases;

so I think something like the following might solve the issue. Creation of a p5-moosex-aliases port and including that port in the portfile dependency map for p5-net-twitter

I left the 'Type' as defect, but it might involve submission/request tickets as well. This is my first ticket filed, and while I used the guidelines, I may have missed something.

I've updated the port to use v4
