           Summary: Please do not depend on perl devel packages
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: low
          Priority: low
         Component: spamassassin
        AssignedTo: wtogami at redhat.com
        ReportedBy: nicolas.mailhot at laposte.net
         QAContact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org
                CC: fedora-perl-devel-list at redhat.com,kevin at tummy.com


Description of problem:

Somehow spamassassin sets a dependency on perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker)

That means any desktop user with spamassassin as evo filter will pull the whole
perl devel stack

Please limit the dependencies on perl-devel to actual devel packages

# rpm -e perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker
error: Failed dependencies:
	perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker) is needed by (installed) spamassassin-3.2.4-1.fc9.x86_64
