Is it possible to place the YAML library in the bundle’s support folder and add that to perl’s include path?
I just did that in the latest commit [GitHub]. Thanks for the helpful suggestion.
Thanks for making the change! :)
I would like to remove the library code from the bundle sometimes in the future tough. Is there a nice way to install external dependencies via TextMate? […]
There is not, and I also question the wisdom of doing that.
If you install something on the user’s system, there is a good chance that a) they will never update it and b) they will not know how to uninstall it (should they later not want the thing that installed it). And installing things globally can cause conflicts.
So I definitely recommend having the non-standard dependencies isolated in the bundle. Of course if there is a chance that the user is a CPAN user who is on top of updating their libraries, one could prefer to look for the library in the standard system path, before using the bundled version.
