Description Paul Howarth 2008-07-07 09:34:56 UTC
The F-9 package of geoqo 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. To avoid a repeat of this problem in the future, I suggest
adding the following dependency to the package (virtually all Fedora perl
packages have this):

Requires: perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_%(eval "`%{__perl} -V:version`"; echo $version))

P.S. I'm a little confused about the license tag: almost every file in the
package that specifies a license says "GPLv2"; the only exception I can see is
GeoDB/Export.pm, which contains both GPLv2 and (GPL or Artistic) code, which
makes the result also GPLv2. So why isn't the overall package simply GPLv2?
