Interesting bug. My findings so far:
- libdist-zilla-plugin-test-podspelling-perl doesn't use Path::Class
- Dist::Zilla::Path issues the above warning and then tries to load
  Path::Class (called from t/attributes.t with ->subdir here)
- Dist::Zilla has dropped (upstream and in Debian) the Path::Class
  dependency

Forwarding the issue upstream for a proper fix.


Cheers,
gregor
