That's irrelevant. 

This is a CPAN distributed distribution
http://search.cpan.org/dist/mogilefs-server/
=> "cpan update" will pull them in.
=> it is being installed under the perl installation hierarchy.
=> its modules are being searched under the standard perl module directories
=> it can be used by other perl modules.

It's not any different from any other CPAN distributions, it's the same as for
why all perl packages are being named perl-<distro>

It's the same as for why perl's "gettext"
http://search.cpan.org/dist/gettext/
is called perl-gettext (cf. it's review. This particular package had been
renamed for exactly the same rationale)

Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to add a 
"Provides: moglilefs-server = <package-version>" 
to the corresponding package.

I do.

> Maybe the packaging commitee should have a discussion about this?
Tibbs, Spot and I are package committee members. Ville (another FPC member) had
enforced this rule in the past.
