cpan2port: fix dependency checking

[mojca (Mojca Miklavec)]

Here is part of META.yml from Catalyst::Plugin::Session::Store::Delegate (version 0.06)

build_requires:
  ExtUtils::MakeMaker: 6.42
  Test::More: 0
  Test::use::ok: 0
configure_requires:
  ExtUtils::MakeMaker: 6.42
requires:
  Catalyst::Plugin::Session: 0.27
  MRO::Compat: 0
  Moose: 0
  MooseX::Emulate::Class::Accessor::Fast: 0
  namespace::clean: 0

It generates the following list:

    depends_lib-append \
                    port:p${perl5.major}-catalyst-plugin-session \
                    port:p${perl5.major}-moose \
                    port:p${perl5.major}-moosex-emulate-class-accessor-fast \
                    port:p${perl5.major}-mro-compat \
                    port:p${perl5.major}-namespace-clean

In particular the dependency Test::use::ok is missing. I don't understand the code well enough yet to be able to fix it though.

Can someone please help me?

Another weird thing is that

cpan2port -t Sysadm::Install

suggest

port:p${perl5.major}-termreadkey

but we only have

port:p${perl5.major}-term-readkey

In particular the dependency Test::use::ok is missing. I don't understand the code well enough yet to be able to fix it though.

Note that Test::use::ok (and Test::Tester) are provided by Test::Simple as of version 1.001010. See ​Test-Simple-1.001014/Changes.

However, the version of Test::Simple in perl5.20 core is only 1.001002. Therefore, a dependency on p5-test-simple is called for to supply this module.

Just wondering, why is this assigned to me? I only maintain the Portfile for cpan2port; I don't maintain the actual script itself...

Uh, yeah. This is what happens when you’re a port maintainer. You get assigned tickets.

But this isn't about the port, it's about the script itself, which lives in contrib. I'd consider this an upstream issue, except that MacPorts itself is the upstream here...
