Additional info:
Thank you for your bug report. I have fixed this bug in amanda-3.2.0-1.fc15. If you want to have this bug fixed in earlier version of Fedora, please reopen this bug. Closing Rawhide.
RPM provides/excludes mechanisms changed in rpm 4.9, introduced in Fedora 15, with the result that in Fedora 15 onwards, this bug has re-appeared. Adding the following line alongside the existing filter should fix this without breaking compatibility with older distributions: %global __provides_exclude ^perl\\(Math::BigInt\\)
This message is a notice that Fedora 15 is now at end of life. Fedora has stopped maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 15. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At this time, all open bugs with a Fedora 'version' of '15' have been closed as WONTFIX. (Please note: Our normal process is to give advanced warning of this occurring, but we forgot to do that. A thousand apologies.) Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, feel free to reopen this bug and simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were unable to fix it before Fedora 15 reached end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged to click on "Clone This Bug" (top right of this page) and open it against that version of Fedora. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping
Still broken in F-17.
F19, F18 broken too.
After applying this change to fix the Math::BigInt: -%global __perl_provides /bin/sh -c "/usr/lib/rpm/perl.prov | grep -v \\\"perl(Math::BigInt)\\\"" +%global __provides_exclude %{?__provides_exclude:%__provides_exclude|}^perl\\(Math::BigInt\\) I get following following unresolved requires: perl(Amanda::BigIntCompat) perl(Amanda::ClientService) perl(Amanda::Config) perl(Amanda::Constants) perl(Amanda::Debug) perl(Amanda::Feature) perl(Amanda::Header) perl(Amanda::IPC::LineProtocol) perl(Amanda::MainLoop) perl(Amanda::NDMP) perl(Amanda::Paths) perl(Amanda::Process) perl(Amanda::Script) perl(Amanda::Script_App) perl(Amanda::Util) perl(Amanda::Xfer) Actually this is problem in current unpatched 3.3.2-2 too. This package needs more love.
Sorry, I used bad glob. It's Ok.
