These modules are supposed to be used with the Apache server together with an embedded perl interpreter like mod_perl. They provide support for basic authentication and authorization as well as support for persistent database connections via Perl's Database Independent Interface (DBI). o DBI.pm provides persistent database connections: - connections can be established during server-startup - configurable rollback to ensure data integrity - configurable verification of the connections to avoid time-outs. o AuthDBI.pm provides authentication and authorization: - optional shared cache for passwords to minimize database load - configurable cleanup-handler deletes outdated entries from the cache Apache::DBI has been in widespread deployment on many platforms for years. Apache::DBI is one of the most widely used mod_perl related modules. It can be considered stable. --- I'm not used to package PERL extension, but this one is needed by a project i work on (ocsinventory).
The perldoc generated license files are not needed, and should go. Instead, it would be a good idea to ask upstream to include license files in the distribution. Improved Summary suggestion: Persistent database connections with Apache/mod_perl How about a "Requires: mod_perl"? I'm not sure if this package would work at all without it, but I suppose at least it's not that useful without it. OPTIMIZE="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" should go, this is a noarch package. Include traces.txt and eg/ in docs? Remember to do something like this in %prep: %{__perl} -pi -e 's|/usr/local/bin/perl|%{__perl}|' eg/startup.pl chmod 644 eg/startup.pl

It can be used in cgi mode, so without mod_perl (ok, not very usefull). Other perl-Apache extension didn't require it too.

Ok, approved.
