action #88119

Updated by okurz over 3 years ago

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`
