Description Mason James 2023-01-18 02:25:49 UTC
this patchset attempts to remove test and dev module dependencies from koha-common pkg

this will reduce maintenance effort and complexity
Comment 1 Mason James 2023-01-18 02:27:24 UTC
perhaps we move these test/dev packages to a separate 'koha-dev' package
Comment 2 Mason James 2023-01-18 02:36:17 UTC
these look like dependency pkgs we can remove from koha-common

Sounds good to me!
Comment 4 Jonathan Druart 2023-01-18 13:31:22 UTC
I am suggesting to remove the scripts, and so the problematic dependency, on libhttpd-bench-apachebench-perl.

on... bug 32673.
Comment 6 David Cook 2023-06-18 23:41:21 UTC
libtest-dbix-class-perl is another one that would need to be moved.

It has a dependency on libdata-uui-perl which conflicts with libossp-uuid-perl which is a dependency of libsoap-lite-perl, which is used by other systems like Sympa and which is used by devscripts.
