Comment 2 Jitka Plesnikova 2014-09-22 11:40:42 UTC

perl-Data-Dumper doesn't have any valid epel branches.

perl-Data-Dumper is retired at EPEL 6 branch. 
It will be blocked at Koji <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5999>.

Data::Dumper is provided by perl-5.10.1-136.el6 in RHEL 6 and by standalone package perl-Data-Dumper at RHEL 7.
