in reply to Correct way to use stricures in CPAN module

strictures was never in core:

g:\Systeme\Regis-TR\XML>corelist strictures strictures was not in CORE (or so I think)

You should specify such prerequisites in your Makefile.PL (and from there, in your META.yml and META.json):

... PREREQ_PM => { strictures => 0, ...

Debugging your list of prerequisites is always fun :)

    I noticed there was an omission in my prerequisites for YAML::XS (but I made that optional through an eval, so I figured that was fine).

    Good to know strictures needs to be in the prereq list, but I'm wondering why Makefile.PL didn't pick it up. Hmmm.
