You asked for a reason why in the past the module used -lgdbm. I gave you the reason based on the situation back in RHEL 6, as I remembered it. That was the technical reason. Petr furthermore commented that Fedora has patched XML::LibXSLT, and you can see the patch here: http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/rpms/perl-XML-LibXSLT/blob/master/f/XML-LibXSLT-1.95-Do-not-link-against-perl-extension-libraries.patch If things have changed since the RHEL 6 days and -lgdbm has been removed from $Config{libs} / $Config{perllibs} in the mean time, I guess it makes sense under the consistency umbrella to remove the Requires form perl-devel as well. -- 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
