[Nagiosplug-devel] Does Nagios::Plugin really need other modules?

Hi Folks:
I thought I would go and try out the new Nagios::Plugins library for
some new perl plugins. However trying to build the RPM resulted in:
> cpan2rpm Nagios::Plugin
-- module: Nagios::Plugin --
Using cached URL: http://search.cpan.org//CPAN/authors/id/T/TO/TONVOON/Nagios-Plugin-0.21.tar.gz
Tarball found - not fetching
Metadata retrieval
Tarball extraction: [/home/rouilj/rpm/SOURCES/Nagios-Plugin-0.21.tar.gz]
Unable to build module, the following dependencies have failed:
Class::Accessor >= 0
Test::More >= 0.62
Params::Validate >= 0
Math::Calc::Units >= 0
none of these dependencies are listed on the cpan manual page for
Nagios::Plugins. I truly don't see how we can distribute a copy of
Nagios::Plugin with the plugins and expect it to work with all these
dependencies.
Also cpan2rpm of Test::More resulted in:
-- module: Test::More --
Module not found on CPAN web site! at /usr/bin/cpan2rpm line 1201.
So please tell me something is wrong with cpan2rpm and that all of
these are optional dependencies and that basic functionality is
available without them.
