Description Paul Howarth 2024-01-26 12:00:12 UTC
The perl-Test-Vars package is FTBFS with Perl 5.38 and I intend to retire it soon since there has been no activity on this upstream for many months and I can't fix it myself.

This is a test dependency in perl-Net-DHCP that is not actually needed because the package build does not run the author and release tests.

Please consider dropping perl(Test::Vars) as a build dependency of perl-Net-DHCP.

Also, the license changed upstream to MIT in 2022.

Reproducible: Always

Comment 1 Emmanuel Seyman 2024-02-04 13:51:02 UTC
Dependcy dropped in perl-Net-DHCP-0.700-7.fc40
License change announced to devel ml and applied to the spec in perl-Net-DHCP-0.700-8.fc40

Thank you for the bug report, Paul.
