Whether or not those automatic Provides are added depends on the build environment contents. And sometimes it can happen that the automatic dependencies are lost due to bugs or missing BuildRequires. In this case it could be due to missing "BuildRequires: perl-generators" before building those Fedora Perl packages. > Actually it would be good if somedoby decided to generate the perl for the fedora distribution. > I generate the file by myself but there are plenty of issues with the dependences.

If that fixes them, somebody may need to file bug reports about those packages or sign up as co-maintainer and contribute updates to fix the packages. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
