Spec URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~cweyl/review/perl-Log-Trace.spec SRPM URL: http://fedorapeople.org/~cweyl/review/perl-Log-Trace-1.070-1.fc10.src.rpm Description: This module provides a unified approach to tracing. A script can 'use Log::Trace qw( < mode > )' to set the behaviour of the TRACE function.By default, the trace functions are exported to the calling package only. You can export the trace functions to other packages with the 'Deep' option. See the "OPTIONS" manpage for more information.

Sure :-) DB is used by the Perl debugger, and as such, is sometimes poked at... It shouldn't be provided by this package. In this case, turning off autoprov and manually providing perl(Log::Trace) is significantly easier than filtering the two provides autoprov finds. ...we've also done this before, e.g. perl-DateTime-Format-DBI.
Thanks for explanation.

I consider this kind of packaging to be grossly negligant sloppiness.
