Description of problem: If you try to install perl-Mail-Box on rhel6beta, if fails with: Error: Package: perl-Mail-IMAPClient-3.25-1.el6.noarch (rhel6-beta-epel) Requires: perl(Mozilla::LDAP::Conn) Error: Package: perl-Mail-Box-2.095-1.el6.2.noarch (rhel6-beta-epel) Requires: perl(MIME::Entity) Error: Package: perl-Mail-Box-2.095-1.el6.2.noarch (rhel6-beta-epel) Requires: perl(MIME::Parser) You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): How reproducible: yum install perl-Mail-Box Steps to Reproduce: 1. 2. 3. Actual results: Expected results: Additional info:
Looks like perl-Mozilla-LDAP didn't branch for el6 and I can't find it in the el repos. perl-MIME-tools on the other hand is in the optional repos which need to be manually enabled. (MIME::Entity and MIME::Parser)
Ah, it looks like Mozilla LDAP was dropped in beta2 refresh
perl-Mail-IMAPClient has docfile dependencies due to upstream adding exec bits to their example scripts at version 3.24. I've updated Rawhide and EL6 to fix that. As for the perl-MIME-tools, that's a well-known issue (Bug #553142) that looks like it's going to have to wait until we know for sure what's going to ship in RHEL-6 GA before a decision is made on what to do about it (e.g. clone the needed Workstation-only packages in EPEL if there's no RHEL channel for Server users to provide these packages). Alternatively you might raise a bug on the RHEL-6 "distribution" component and ask if not including perl-MIME-tools in RHEL-6 Server is a mistake (it's not unheard of - see Bug #636763 for example).
With the fixed perl-Mail-IMAPClient and perl-MIME-tools everything seems to work ok now. Thanks, Florian La Roche
