ah, right, now I understand why I thought we were already testing for it.

Is the above related to Apache::SizeLimit? In any case it'd be nicer if
this could be detected earlier, at perl Makefile.PL or compile time.


No, it's an Apache::Resource test


I thought so too, but nothing in the test output suggests SizeLimit was
tested:

It's not tested at run time, we just test that it's loaded. Feel free to submit a patch/post an idea how to add a test for A-SL w/o disrupting the rest of the test suite.


What do you mean detected? Like offer you a list of optional modules? We have discussed that, but didn't arrive to any firm plan on how the best to do it. How do you propose we deal with that?


Uh, sorry, I don't have any proposals, I'm new here :) From the other posts on this thread I understand that this it is not practical or feasible to detect this at compile time.

My proposal was to somehow report to users the optional modules during 'perl Makefile.PL' (.e.g Module::Build (or is it Module::Install) seems to provide this functionality. When running CPANPLUS it suggests to install optional modules. I don't know how to do it with MakeMaker.
