Product: Fedora https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=924938 --- Comment #19 from Jan Kaluža <jkaluza@xxxxxxxxxx> --- (In reply to comment #10) > file maintainer, any idea? File in rawhide should detect Perl files better. I've run my regression tests ( https://fedorahosted.org/file-tests/ ) and saw only improvements between 5.11 and 5.14. Some Perl files previously detect as "awk script, ASCII text" are now properly detected as "Perl5 module source, ASCII text". I have very limited understanding of interaction between File and rpmbuild. >From what I know, rpmbuild checks all files using the File tool and try to match File output according to regexps in /usr/lib/rpm/fileattrs (I'm testing that matching in my test-suite too). What happened here is that File probably (I don't have the old File installed right now to prove that) started reporting "/usr/share/perl5/perl5db.pl" as Perl script. Next thing is speculation, because I don't what exactly rpmbuild does when it finds some Perl file using File tool, but I think it probably checks for "package X" in that Perl File. And it finds this in our file: ./usr/share/perl5/perl5db.pl: package Carp; # Do not include us in the list That could explain why you see that particular Provides there. Please try to remove that file, do scratch-build and test the Provides to prove this theory. If it's true, I think it's rpmbuild bug. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
