And it so. Installing perl-Net-DNS does not trigger installing perl-Net-DNS-SEC: # rpm -q perl-Net-DNS-SEC package perl-Net-DNS-SEC is not installed # dnf install perl-Net-DNS Last metadata expiration check: 0:37:19 ago on Fri 06 Nov 2020 12:24:29 PM CET. Dependencies resolved. =========================================================================================================================================== Package Architecture Version Repository Size =========================================================================================================================================== Installing: perl-Net-DNS noarch 1.27-1.fc34 rawhide 368 k Transaction Summary =========================================================================================================================================== Install 1 Package > There is no reason for the RPM Perl dependencies not to be in sync with the > CPAN metadata. From the end-user pov, loading the RPM should be more or less > equivalent to installing from CPAN. You conflate build-time and run-time dependencies. The RPM package is built in Fedora infrastructure were BuildRequires are applied. An owner of the infrastructure takes the legal aspects of the build-time dependencies seriously <https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Licensing>. The built RPM package is installed on the end user system where BuildRequires do not apply. And as I showed above it does not trigger installing perl-Net-DNS-SEC. The only RPM packages which trigger installing perl-Net-DNS-SEC are dnssec-tools and dnssec-tools-perlmods. -- 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 Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
