Description Ralf Corsepius 2012-05-22 06:23:57 UTC 
Description of problem:

The automake-rpm in rawhide carries bogus perl(Automake::...) provides/requires:

# rpm -q -provides -p automake-1.11.5-1.fc18.noarch.rpm 
...
perl(Automake::...)
...


# rpm -q --requires -p automake-1.11.5-1.fc18.noarch.rpm 
...
perl(Automake::...)  
...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
automake-1.11.5-1.fc18.noarch.rpm

Actual results:
The automake package provides/requires perl(Automake::...).

Expected results:
The automake package not to provide/require perl(Automake::...).

Additional info:
* AFAIS from automake.spec, the cause is its perl-module filter not having been updated to recent rpm conventions. The old filter, the spec still contains, now is dysfunctional.

* The F17 package suffers from the same issue.

* The F16 package also would suffer from this issue, if it was rebuilt.
So far, however, F16 ships an F14 built automake, where these perl-module filters had been functional.

Patch used by previous patch

This patch addresses a bug in automake-1.11.5's testsuite's tests/compile_f90_c_cxx.test, which deterministically shows when building automake-1.11.5 for rawhide.
Comment 3 Pavel Raiskup 2012-09-26 14:01:03 UTC 
Ralph, thanks for your work! .. all possible changes are (maybe slightly
modified) addressed in rawhide/f18 now.  I changed it little because automake
has been rebased in the meantime.

Relevant build for rawhide:

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4528242

And for F18 (still running):

  http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4528845

I'm marking this like resolved, feel free to reopen it when something goes
wrong,

Pavel
