Hey all --
Perl provides a number of provides flags, e.g.:
perl(:WITH_ITHREADS)
perl(:WITH_LARGEFILES)
perl(:WITH_PERLIO)
perl(:WITH_THREADS)
Most perl module spec files only deal with perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.8.8),
etc. But I see a number of them (arch-specific, typically), do use
these flags, along the lines of:
Requires: %(perl -MConfig -le 'if (defined $Config{useithreads}) {
print "perl(:WITH_ITHREADS)" } else { print "perl(:WITHOUT_ITHREADS)"
}')
etc, etc.
So, when should a packager use these? Should lines along the one
above be included for all flags in an arch-specific spec file? What's
a good rule of thumb here? (And, are these flags documented anywhere?
A cursory search of the wiki isn't turning up anything for me.)
