composer.json doesn't list dependencies

[richard-damon]

The module zetacomponets/mail can not be used without having also loaded zetacomponents/base, but does not have a requires section in its composer.json file listing this dependency. This means that a project that lists zetacomponents/mail as a dependency may error out unless it also adds zetacomponen/base as a dependency. This goes against the philosophy of composer where every module is supposed to declare all of its requirements so that composer can make sure they are all met.

Could you perhaps create a patch?

It looks that dep is in there though:

    "type": "library",
        "require": {
            "zetacomponents/base": "*"
        },

It looks like it is an item fixed in 1.18-beta as part of adding unit tests. 1.17 was released April 2012, the fix was committed May 2012, and is part of the 1.18-Beta release.
