Description

We have two sections about dependencies in Contributing.asciidoc (http://open.qa/docs/#_perl_and_other_packages) that are relevant to updating Perl dependencies especially. The file dependencies.yaml needs to be updated, which make update-deps will use to update other files - but .circleci/ci-packages.txt is not updated by it. Arguably every time you change dependencies, you need to update those, too. And @Xiaojing_liu ran into this the other day.

Acceptance criteria

  • AC1: Running make update-deps updates .circleci/ci-packages.txt

Suggestions

  • Use e.g. zypper -x se --provides --match-exact "perl(YAML::LibYAML)" to lookup YAML::LibYAML which yields something like perl-YAML-LibYAML
