Thanks.

The kernel.org machine I am using for testing does not seem to
have perl-Error installed, and I suspect Pasky arranged to ship
our own Error.pm for people building git from source because the
package is not so widely installed.  I guess I should ask the
admins there before I can build perl-Git RPMs for release. 

I am doing this preparation not for the upcoming 1.4.1 but later
than that -- perhaps way later than that -- so there is no rush.
