--- Comment #2 from Panu Matilainen <pmatilai@xxxxxxxxxx> ---
Right... /usr/lib/rpm/macros.{perl,php,python} are mostly nothing but ancient
cruft, for all practical purposes they've been untouched since their addition
to upstream sources circa 10 years ago.

The __find_* macros for perl have always pointed to non-existent files and
redefining them this way wouldn't have been a very sane thing to do even back
then, these days even less so. OTOH those macros dont actually affect anything
unless the deprecated external dependency generator is used.

Fixed upstream by removing the offending __find_* definitions -> CLOSED
UPSTREAM as this doesn't seem worth specifically fixing in Fedora.
