Hello.

During this review:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=444755

This noarch package seems to create an empty arch dependant directory.
%{perl_vendorarch}/auto/*

If %{perl_vendorlib}/* is used (as the skeleton perl spec file suggest).
Then it leads for this empty directory to be listed in the package.
(at least if the package is built on %{_lib} == lib systems.)

At this time, I haven't seen any other case where this problem appears.
But I wonder why this directory is created ?

The workaround would be to have
%{perl_vendorlib}/Lingua/
But this remains weird...
