Description of problem: Perl package no longer includes bigint.pm Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.22.0-349.fc23.x86_64 How reproducible: 100% Steps to Reproduce: Run this command at a prompt perl -Mbigint -e 'print 1->as_hex()."\n"' Actual results: Can't locate bigint.pm in @INC (you may need to install the bigint module) (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .). Expected results: 0x1 Additional info: It seems that bigint.pm is now contained in perl-bignum, which is not installed by default. This results in breakage when scripts are run on Fedora 23. Since this is a standard feature of perl, it seems reasonable to expect such scripts to run in a standard install of Fedora 23. This is a regression since Fedora 22.
The perl package in fedora is intended to deliver /usr/bin/perl only. If you you want a module, install 'perl(THE_MODULE)'. If you want to install all core modules delivered with upstream perl, install perl-core package.
