That's my concern too, so I've been working on a script to evaluate the build order and spot circular build dependencies for my local repo, and manually inserting conditional buildreqs based on %{?perl_bootstrap} where appropriate. I've worked out that I can rebuild my repo in 27 passes at the moment, plus an extra one to rebuild without %{?perl_bootstrap} set afterwards. I'm now going to look at doing something similar for Rawhide, which I'll hopefully have ready by the time it comes to do the rebuild for Perl 5.16. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl perl-devel mailing list perl-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/perl-devel
