Hi there.

Looks like devel/p5-DateTime builds but is failing with the following
at runtime.

Can't locate Params/ValidationCompiler.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Params::ValidationCompiler module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/mach/5.20 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.20/mach /usr/local/lib/perl5/5.20 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20 /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.20/mach .) at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/DateTime/TimeZone/OffsetOnly.pm line 12, <DATA> line 1.

The author, Dave Rolsky, says of Params/ValidationCompiler:

"This is very alpha. The module name could change. Everything could
change. You have been warned."

So why he's using it in DateTime-1.39 who knows.

Just in case you hadn't noticed given the popularity of p5-DateTime.
This broke a lot of scripts for me.

Thanks,
Gary
