patch created from master (bd1f62137de)

steps used to create patch...

1/ install cpanm, (2 methods)
$ sudo cpan  App::cpanminus  or...
$ curl -L http://cpanmin.us | perl - --sudo App::cpanminus

2/ install carton
$ sudo cpanm carton

3/ install needed perl modules (and create a carton.lock file)
$ cd koha.git
$ carton install
Comment 4 Owen Leonard 2014-07-15 19:01:31 UTC
Should this bug be "needs signoff?"
Comment 5 Katrin Fischer 2019-04-28 11:47:52 UTC
Can someone weigh in if this can be closed? No activity since 2012 (no answer to Owens question 2014).
Comment 6 Tomás Cohen Arazi 2019-05-02 13:50:50 UTC
This would be interesting if we had a script to generate the carton files. Because we cannot ditch our current model as it is used for generating the Debian packages.

I like the idea overall, but this bug should probably be closed until someone can work on a complete solution.

Probably related => bug 19735 (carton uses the cpanfile)
