Some Perl packages install header files deep into the internal Perl directory hierarchy. I guess these are used for something internal to Perl. Some packages which do this are perl-PDL, Gtk-Perl, perl-DBI (and now perl-cairo, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=187799). The packaging guidelines state: - MUST: Header files or static libraries must be in a -devel package. but it seems pointless to put two header files in a separate -devel package when they aren't intended to be included from user-written code. I suppose it's possible that Perl needs to have them present to run. Is this situation a valid exception to the above MUST? - J< -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
