Subject: libterm-editoredit-perl: uses deprecated Any::Moose

Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2016 22:30:44 +0200

Package: libterm-editoredit-perl
Version: 0.16-1
Severity: normal
User: debian-perl@lists.debian.org
Usertags: any-moose autopkgtest
Forwarded: https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=104918
Control: affects -1 pinto

This package uses Any::Moose, which is deprecated. Since
libany-moose-perl_0.27-1, a deprecation warning is issued on usage.

 $ perl -we 'use Term::EditorEdit'
 Any::Moose is deprecated. Please use Moo instead at /usr/share/perl5/Term/EditorEdit.pm line 13.

The only reverse dependency is pinto, which now warns similarly.
Both packages fail their autopkgtest checks due to this; see

  http://ci.debian.net/packages/libt/libterm-editoredit-perl/unstable/amd64/
  https://ci.debian.net/packages/p/pinto/unstable/amd64/

The upstream ticket has had no comment from the maintainer in 1.5 years.

There's a thread related to Any::Moose around

 https://lists.debian.org/debian-perl/2016/11/msg00035.html  

and it's not clear yet if the deprecation warning should be disabled
one way or another. The primary bug of using Any::Moose still remains
of course.
