https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1409812 --- Comment #2 from Andrew Bauer <zonexpertconsulting@xxxxxxxxxxx> --- Hi Jason, The short answer to the "why" question is because zoneminder depends on it. I've given a more in-depth answer over in the fedora devel list if you are interested: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/G4LBTRW52OAGEO3AFE6APZUHXUGHBIUQ/ I am just learning the ropes of the Fedora system so my apologies if I am doing something incorrectly or in an atypical fashion. Rest assured, I am quite serious about getting all of zoneminder's (non-ffmpeg) dependencies into both EPEL & Fedora. I do have someone willing to sponsor me if needed. I've been managing my own packages, including perl-Sys-Mmap, in a small repo at zmrepo.zoneminder.com, and I just uploaded perl-Sys-Mmap to my Copr repo as well: https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/kni/zoneminder_deps/build/495048/ Don't know if any of that helps. Small tweaks were made, but I don't recall having to do anything special to get it to install or build properly on el6. I think I know where to request a new branch. Since I'm not yet an official packager, I don't know if I can, but I will certainly try. thank you. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ perl-devel mailing list -- perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to perl-devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
