Hi,

On Monday, perl-devel will be removed from the f8 buildroots.  This
means that if you try to build a perl-* package that uses the perl build
tools, you will need to add those tools to the BuildRequires for the
package.  The most common will be:

BuildRequires: perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker)

But you should also watch the build output to make sure tests aren't
being skipped due to other missing modules.
