IO::CaptureOutput says it is deprecated, so why is it being used here? #54

Closed robrwo closed 9 months ago

robrwo commented 2 years ago

If Capture::Tiny can be used to replace IO::CaptureOutput, then it should be used instead.

so why is it being used

Because it works, has in the code for 16 years (a fair bit longer than IO::CaptureOutput has been marked deprecated), and nobody has provided a patch to do otherwise.
