But the set is slightly bigger, you have to add - perl-devel (requires ExtUtils::MakeMaker) - perl-CPAN (download and build modules from CPAN - perl-Module-Build: we are in perl, so TMTOWTDI: ``Module::Build is a system for building, testing, and installing Perl modules. It is meant to be an alternative to ExtUtils::MakeMaker.'' > Maybe We could have a warning if such dependencies are detected ? > Either appearing in build.log or as a rpmlint test ? > So we could check why this dependency are extracted at source. This type of problem seems to appear too often, so you are probably right that such a check is needed.. I'm not sure where it should be hooked to, though.
