Also the rules didn't suddenly change. Perl modules are a corner case where the normal rules of dependency extraction wrt executable bits don't apply, never have (perl modules generally aren't supposed to be executable so that can't be used for detection). The current "file" utility (whose library rpmbuild internally uses for classifying files) just seems to be far more eager at claiming files to be "perl modules" than the older versions, that's where the change in behavior comes from in this and the other related bugs. Like I said, extracting dependencies for documentation doesn't make sense to me either. But the rpmbuild file classifier is built with the assumption that it can figure out everything from the files on disk, it doesn't "see" what is specified as %doc etc in the spec. I'm just looking at how to best fix this, hopefully eliminating bunch of other related hacks in the process instead of adding new ones. If that starts looking like more of a long-term thing, we can always just drop in another hardcoded hack such as the "fix" in comment #12 to exclude the docdir where necessary. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl Fedora-perl-devel-list mailing list Fedora-perl-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-perl-devel-list
