Description Tanktalus 2017-04-06 20:58:02 UTC 
I get this with ack 2.18 and File-Next 1.120.0-r1 installed:

$ ack -?
File::Next version 1.16 required--this is only version 1.12 at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.1/App/Ack/Resources.pm line 16.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.24.1/App/Ack/Resources.pm line 16.
Compilation failed in require at /usr/bin/ack line 16.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/bin/ack line 16.

When I upgrade File-Next to 1.160.0, the problem goes away. This indicates to me that ack-2.18 should set >=dev-perl/File-Next-1.160.0 as a dependency.

Thanks,

Tim, if you want Perl team to handle stuff like this in future, please stuff us in metadata.xml :)
