Re: build perl problem
* Nicolas Chauvet [24/10/2016 17:46] :
Can you show me a perl noarch package that would built without
perl-devel (in buildroot as a remote dependency).
It's not just perl packages, it's every package that contains a perl script
or a perl library. Back when perl-generators was been discussed on the perl
mailing list, these were the rule more than they were the exception.
If this has changed, it's probably best to file a bug in Fedora's bugzilla.
The problem is that perl-generator is a distro specific package, so
it
would be better hidden behind perl-devel or even
perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker.
What does "distro specific" mean here? The perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker and
perl-devel packages are just as distro specific as perl-generators (Debian
doesn't have packages with those names, for example).
