Hmmm, I swear I just closed this ... FIxed in CVS, should be in rpm-4.2.2-0.8 and later. Note: perl.req is being replaced with perldeps.pl soonish. An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report. This report is therefore being closed with a resolution of ERRATA. For more information on the solution and/or where to find the updated files, please follow the link below. You may reopen this bug report if the solution does not work for you. http://rhn.redhat.com/errata/RHBA-2004-098.html |
