--- Comment #3 from Petr Pisar <ppisar@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
The only information I have is
<https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/epel-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/HXFHAPXPG2FX4NHP2WDNE3J3JXE53LML/>.
My interpretation is that it's not possible to build Modularity modules in EPEL
8.

And there is yet another issue: There are a few Perl packages modularized in
RHEL. I'm sure people will want EPEL to provide their modularized rebuilds, so
that users can switch to a different perl and still enjoy all the other Perl
packages. A straightforward implementation is copying sources from CentOS to
EPEL, wrapping them with a module and building the module in EPEL 8 while
letting a stream expansion to build it for all perls. The downside is that the
modular package would mask RHEL package. That was forbidden in EPEL 7 and I
believe the same rule will apply to EPEL 8. There are few ways how to deal with
it but none of them is simple. We need to clarify it with EPEL project owner
and choose a right strategy in Perl/EPEL sig. I'd like to elaborate about it
more in some list. Do you prefer Fedora's perl-devel or EPEL's epel-devel? I'd
rather use perl-devel for discussing the strategy.
