In regard to: how to prevent rpmbuild from incorrectly discovering a Perl...:
What I have in one of my Perl programs something like:
print <<EOF;
use Net::SNMP::AgentX qw(:types :pdus :errors :options);
EOF
So my code 'emits' a line of text that contains a 'use' statement,
but it does not actually ever execute that 'use' statement,
therefore _my_ package is NOT dependent on that module.
Perl is incredibly challenging to parse correctly, which is why the
dependency generator sometimes gets it wrong.
The easiest thing to try would be to break your very small here-doc into
pieces that the dependency detector won't notice. Something like
print 'use ';
print 'Net::SNMP::AgentX ';
print 'qw(:types :pdus :errors :options);';
print "\n";
or
print join(' ', 'use', 'Net::SNMP::AgentX',
'qw(:types :pdus :errors :options);'), "\n";
