Well, what I am observing is the opposite of what you describe. f15-built modules land in %{_libdir}/perl5/vendor_perl while f14-built modules land in %{_libdir}/perl5, That's why I am wondering - Has a bug crept into perl's setup? > If core and vendor > > are the same as it is in F-14, then it's non-existent module looked up > twice in the same > > path without luck. > > So, my suggestion is change all modules to install into core directories and > > leave vendorarch empty for personal RPMs, which also cut down time for > looking up How comes, f14 already did so and f15 has stopped doing so?
