It is much, much nicer now, but one of the changes he made was to include a -devel subpackage, which make sense, but causes problems such as these. The package even needs a little more work because some additional things could be split out instead of just the .h files. Or, we could roll everything back into 'perl' and put an Obsoletes: perl-devel for awhile to take care of people who have perl-devel installed. What do you guys think is best? I like the -devel idea, but if you think it will be more trouble than it's worth, we can roll it back into 'perl'. -RN -- Robin Norwood Red Hat, Inc.
