Spec URL: http://ppisar.fedorapeople.org/perl-App-find2perl/perl-App-find2perl.spec SRPM URL: http://ppisar.fedorapeople.org/perl-App-find2perl/perl-App-find2perl-1.003-1.fc21.src.rpm Description: This package delivers find2perl tool which is a little translator to convert find command lines to equivalent Perl code. Fedora Account System Username: ppisar --- This package will dual-live with perl.spec's sub-package (after it will be sub-packaged).
The files were sub-packaged from perl.spec in perl-5.18.2-300.fc21.
Should this package have a subpackage of "find2perl"? Since the following are the only installed files for this package; /usr/bin/find2perl /usr/share/doc/perl-App-find2perl /usr/share/doc/perl-App-find2perl/Changes /usr/share/doc/perl-App-find2perl/LICENSE /usr/share/doc/perl-App-find2perl/README /usr/share/man/man1/find2perl.1.gz it might be easier for users to "yum install find2perl" rather than "yum install perl-App-find2perl"?

In the past it's not. But I think we could add "Provides: find2perl" after the split.
The Fedora policy is to stick to upstream name. Upstream name is App-find2perl. I don't see much positive points in providing find2perl while the package provides /usr/bin/find2perl. I haven't seen coreutils providing cp or mv. Although I understand your arguments, I think it would just bring yet another dilemma and inconsistencies which tool name to provide explicitly and which not. BTW when was the last time you used find2perl? I believe the tool is as forgotten as Perl 5 porters expunged it from the Perl core.

License is correct. Build and RunTime Requires are good. Package builds ok at http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7074610 rpmlint is clean. Approved.
