Did I miss something I was supposed to be doing? Sounds a bit like this bug: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=436807 https://www.redhat.com/archives/fedora-packaging/2008-March/thread.html#00070 I fixed the spec file to add an explicit Requires, but the fix is a bit unsatisfactory: BuildRequires: perl-ExtUtils-Embed %global libperldir %(perl -MExtUtils::Embed -e ldopts 2> /dev/null | egrep -o '/[^[:space:]]*CORE' | head -1) %if "%{?libperldir}" != "%{nil}" Requires: %{?libperldir}/libperl.so %endif I don't know if you can see a simpler way to do this.
