RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Eric Eisenhart 2010-11-12 21:55:52 UTC 
Description of problem:
perl-XML-Dumper package is missing the perl() dependencies required for it to actually work.  In particular, perl(XML::Parser).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-XML-Dumper-0.81-6.el6.noarch

How reproducible:
yum install perl-XML-Dumper
perl -MXML::Dumper -e 0
rpm -q --requires perl-XML-Dumper

Steps to Reproduce:
yum install perl-XML-Dumper
perl -MXML::Dumper -e 0
rpm -q --requires perl-XML-Dumper
  
Actual results:
# perl -MXML::Dumper -e 0
Can't locate XML/Parser.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/share/perl5/XML/Dumper.pm line 144.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/XML/Dumper.pm line 144.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

# rpm -q --requires perl-XML-Dumper
perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.1)  
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1
rpmlib(PayloadIsXz) <= 5.2-1

Expected results:
# perl -MXML::Dumper -e 0
(should return nothing)

# rpm -q --requires perl-XML-Dumper
perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_5.10.1)  
perl(Exporter)  
perl(XML::Parser)  
perl(overload)  
perl(strict)  
perl(warnings)  

(all the other perl() dependencies are provided in the perl package, but perl(XML::Parser) is in perl-XML-Parser)
Comment 2 Marcela Mašláňová 2010-11-15 07:48:32 UTC 
The perl-XML-Parser is included in RHEL-6, it's missing only in spec file. This should be easy fix, thanks for report.
Comment 3 Suzanne Logcher 2011-02-15 21:45:13 UTC 
This issue was proposed for RHEL 6.1 FasTrack but did not get resolved in time.
It has been moved to RHEL 6.2 FasTrack.
