With pkg_pretend you can also implement USE deps, would you like to abolish |
12 |
them as well? This is data and should be treated as such. Using code to |
13 |
describe it is possible but suboptimal, if there's a suggestion that allows |
14 |
for describing this as data rather than with code then it is superior for |
15 |
all the reasons already stated. |
