Looking at 5.8.8-16 in CVS, neither perl-devel nor perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker) is sufficient for the majority of cases. perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker should most likely pull in perl(Test::Harness) (see the perl review bug in Bugzilla), but in addition to that a lot of packages would need to have an explicit perl(Test::More) build dependency added, that's commonly used in ./test.pl and/or t/*.t in CPAN distributions. There are also some Epoch issues in 5.8.8-16 which makes some of its subpackages uninstallable, hopefully a fix will arrive soon. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
