Summary: RFE: add %{?perl_default_filter} to the perl spec template https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=502403 Summary: RFE: add %{?perl_default_filter} to the perl spec template Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: medium Priority: low Component: rpmdevtools AssignedTo: ville.sky...@iki.fi ReportedBy: cw...@alumni.drew.edu QAContact: extras...@fedoraproject.org CC: fedora-perl-devel-list@redhat.com, ville.sky...@iki.fi Classification: Fedora arch-specific perl-* packages often have library provides picked up and exposed vi rpm's autoprov system, where it shouldn't; that is, these provides are useless, not in the system lib path, and will never be used for proper perl dependency resolution. e.g. perl-YAML-Syck.i386 provides Syck.so(), mod_perl provides a slew of them, etc. We're working on bundling a set of new macros with the perl package; these macros will allow us to sensibly filter useless provides out. http://fedorapeople.org/~cweyl/macros.perl Please update the perl spec template to conditionally invoke the default perl filtering macro, by inserting "%{?perl_default_filter} before %description.
