Still a loop, or what am I missing? Assume you start from scratch:
1. rpmbuild perl-Readonly => works
2. rpmbuild perl-Readonly-XS => needs BuildRequires perl-Readonly,
which in turn Requires perl-Readonly-XS, which hasn't been built yet
=> *boom*
Ah. Nice :)
Ok, on examination, perl-Readonly-XS doesn't strictly buildrequires
perl-Readonly, so I've dropped that BR and patched the Makefile.PL to
not complain. That should cut the loop.
