The Perl packaging guidelines are big on the need to filter provides
and requires using some complex shell scripting:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Perl
I'm reviewing some Perl packages which don't do this. Furthermore I
grabbed 10 approved Perl specfiles from CVS and only 2 of them
(perl-Catalyst-Plugin-Static-Simple and perl-Class-MOP) actually did
it.
So is this packaging requirement real?
Rich.
