Why perl-Wx fails to find perl-Alien-wxWidgets
----------------------------------------------

This package is strange: it installs itself in arched directories even though
not one of its files is binary (I forced the perl_vendorarch in the %files
section when I first started packaging this in the past and forgot it). 

The current package (tagged as noarch) in the repos has the following content:
------
$ rpm -qpl extras/5/i386/perl-Alien-wxWidgets-0.21-1.fc5.noarch.rpm
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien/wxWidgets
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien/wxWidgets.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien/wxWidgets/Config
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien/wxWidgets/Config/gtk2_2_6_3_uni_gcc_3_4.pm
/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/ppc-linux-thread-multi/Alien/wxWidgets/Utility.pm
/usr/share/doc/perl-Alien-wxWidgets-0.21
/usr/share/doc/perl-Alien-wxWidgets-0.21/Changes
/usr/share/man/man3/Alien::wxWidgets.3pm.gz
/usr/share/man/man3/Alien::wxWidgets::Utility.3pm.gz
------


Dropping the line

   BuildArch:      noarch

from the specfile solves the problem but rpmlint will start complaining

   $ rpmlint perl-Alien-wxWidgets-0.21-2.i386.rpm
   E: perl-Alien-wxWidgets no-binary
