Hello, I prepared perl-5.12.0 for F-14. You can download test srpm [1] and check spec file for mistakes. I'd like to remove compatibility macros MODULE_COMPAT, but we'll need rebuild few modules which needs MODULE_COMPAT 5.10.0. I'm not sure about 5.10.1, but I didn't run into problems after update (yet). Also I didn't applied patch with debug symbol, because in spec is written temporarily applied (perl-add-symbols.patch). Not sure if it's still needed. This is only initial build, because there are still needed few fixes. Mainly switch to the minimal/core package and check new sub-package - test-suite. I'll appreciate comments, patches, bugs. The major changes in upstream: [2] [3] in our rpm: * perl-IO-Compress provide now IO::Compress::{Base,Zlib} & perl-Compress-Zlib * perl-suidperl is not provided anymore, because build option for suid was deprecated * remove MODULE_COMPAT's Possible bugs: * 'make test' worked fine in smoke test. In rpm failed some tests, which could be caused by setting of paths in spec. I was able to build successfully rpm with tests, after I install rpm with perl-5.12.0. * release number has to be bigger than the last perl in rawhide > 118 at the moment. The second option is - add .1 to every sub-package which wasn't updated since perl-5.10.1.
