Description Ralf Corsepius 2009-09-24 04:16:54 UTC
Description of problem:

/usr/lib/rpm/perl.req crashes with a regex error message while extracting requires:
...
Unmatched ) in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/^';y;\r\n;;d;$_=pack'b*',$_;$_=eval;$@&&die$@;$_) <-- HERE ."\n$$ref\n\n/ at /usr/lib/rpm/perl.req line 89, <FILE> line 30.
...

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
rpm-4.7.1-1.fc11.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. On F11, try to rebuild F11's original perl-PAR-Packer-0.991-1.fc11.src.rpm: 
rpmbuild --rebuild perl-PAR-Packer-0.991-1.fc11.src.rpm

Actual results:
c.f. above

Expected results:
Function

Additional info:
rpmbuild doesn't abort on this error, but silently continues as if nothing has happened. No idea (yet) if the resulting rpm is correctly packaged.
