Description Carlos O'Donell 2015-06-11 03:46:30 UTC
The BuildRequires on glibc-headers should either be removed or converted into a BuildRequires: gcc. Either you need to be able to compile C programs, in which case the compiler will provide the required implementation headers (by requiring glibc-devel), or you don't need glibc-headers.

The Requires on glibc-headers should also be removed. The development libraries and headers will be used by developers via BuildRequires, but along with BuildRequires: gcc or similar, and thus they will have installed all the headers that are required to use perl-Config-AutoConf for C or other languages.

The reason I'm asking this is that glibc-headers may or may not be removed in the future, and I'm looking to remove what appears to be unnecessary dependencies on glibc-headers.

Comment 1 Jan Kurik 2015-07-15 14:01:50 UTC
This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 23 development cycle.
Changing version to '23'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 23 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 23 End Of Life. Thank you.)
