Hmmm... I'm confused. Why are there _NO_ commands executed at all. That
"files" is not found is just the result of not executing any commands
in %install. I don't know what happens here for you, but RPM does not
execute the content of the %xxxx sections in perl-stats.spec. I've no
clue how this can happen, but I would try a "openpkg rpm --rebuild
perl-stats-*.src.rpm" with the latest "perl-stats" from openpkg.org
instead. Perhaps your local perl-stats.spec got garbled.
