Description Colin Macdonald 2014-11-19 11:53:46 UTC
Spec URL: https://github.com/cbm755/fedora-spec/blob/master/perl-ExtUtils-LibBuilder.spec
SRPM URL: http://people.maths.ox.ac.uk/macdonald/fedora/perl-ExtUtils-LibBuilder-0.06-2.fc21.src.rpm

Description:
Some Perl modules need to ship C libraries together with their Perl code.
Although there are mechanisms to compile and link (or glue) C code in your
Perl programs, there isn't a clear method to compile standard, self-
contained C libraries.

This is dep for Biber, bug #1165620

I need sponsorship, but I'm not a perl user so I'm equally happy for perl people to take this one.

Comment 2 Petr Šabata 2014-11-20 14:05:22 UTC
Just a suggestion before you push this -- according to META.*, the minimum required version of Module::Build is 0.42.  You can add that bit to your BR list.

This is a non-blocker.  No need to update the review.

Approving.

Comment 3 Petr Pisar 2014-11-20 14:14:48 UTC
I think the summary text could be more descriptive. While "ExtUtils::LibBuilder Perl module" is true, it does not say much. Upstream uses "A tool to build C libraries". However because this is a library and not a tool and because it can produce not only libraries, I would rephrase it as "Perl library to build C libraries and programs".

Comment 4 Colin Macdonald 2014-11-22 00:18:47 UTC
Ok, I have done those changes and %license.
