Description : One shortcoming of the CPAN clients that currently exist is that
: they have no way of specifying conflicting downstream dependencies
: of modules. This module attempts to work around this issue by
: allowing you to specify conflicting versions of modules
: separately, and deal with them after the module is done
: installing.
:
: For instance, say you have a module Foo, and some other module Bar
: uses Foo. If Foo were to change its API in a
: non-backwards-compatible way, this would cause Bar to break until
: it is updated to use the new API. Foo can't just depend on the
: fixed version of Bar, because this will cause a circular
: dependency (because Bar is already depending on Foo), and this
: doesn't express intent properly anyway - Foo doesn't use Bar at
: all. The ideal solution would be for there to be a way to specify
: conflicting versions of modules in a way that would let CPAN
: clients update conflicting modules automatically after an existing
: module is upgraded, but until that happens, this module will allow
: users to do this manually.
