The F-9 package of dbxml-perl has modules in "perl 5.8.8" paths, which are not found by F-9's perl 5.10.0. The package therefore needs rebuilding for perl 5.10.0. There was a mass rebuild of perl packages late in the F-9 development period but this package missed out on it, possibly because it is missing a perl version "module compat" dependency and hence didn't have broken deps when perl was upgraded to 5.10.0. In order to avoid a repeat of this problem in the future, I suggest adding the following dependency to the package (which can be found in virtually all Fedora perl packages): Requires: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_%(eval "`%{__perl} -V:version`"; echo $version)) P.S. If (as I think is the case), the package is licensed under the same terms as perl itself, the license tag should be "GPL+ or Artistic", not "GPL+ or Artistic 2.0".
