Re: RPM vs. Perl scripts

Nevermind. :)

User-error!  Apparently there was a .cgi file in my html directory
which actually had a #!/usr/bin/perl#!/usr/bin/perl and since web
servers use the mime type or whatnot instead this line was not really
being used (so I never noticed the issue).  The neweset RPM detected
it.  I figured it out by running the rpm-dep checks manually in each
directory until I saw the odd depenancies.

Thanks anyway :)
