[Pdl-porters] Fwd: [pdl:feature-requests] #81 PDL not supporting

[Chris Marshall]

It looks like ExtUtils::Depends may be a candidate for
PDL3 work. That plus working Alien::XXX support for
the external dependencies would be a nice combination.

The best place for a more technical discussion about
a change to PDL internals would be the pdl-porters
mailing list---starting with what ExtUtils::Depends support
means and why PDL doesn't...

I am looking to simplify (delete code from) Gimp-Perl. The other
dependencies it has are GNOME-related and support ExtUtils::Depends and its
resulting , and the resulting Makefile.PL is extremely simple EXCEPT for
my $pkg = new ExtUtils::Depends Gimp, Gtk2;
WriteMakefile(
[...]
$pkg->get_makefile_vars,

It would be amazing to be able to just support PDL by adding ", PDL" to
the previous initialisation line. It would be a one-liner addition to the
build for PDL. Please let me know if you would like this, and I will make a
git-format patch.
