Description Tomas Hoger 2011-05-16 15:16:39 UTC
Description of problem:
perl-SOAP-Lite packages got their Requires / BuildRequires cleaned up as part of the rebase to 0.712:

http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/gitweb/?p=perl-SOAP-Lite.git;a=commitdiff;h=7ef3be6ac53152a2f4eca7c906829af3631d9b73

As part of this cleanup, it got new dependency on mod_perl (via Apache2::*) and hence httpd too.  This is unneeded for use cases where the package is used to provide XMLRPC client functionality.

The code using those extra modules should be optional and only be used when running under mod_perl.  It would be nice to not have RPM requires for Apache2::* to avoid extra deps in use cases when they are not needed.  Omitting should not have any negative impact on those use case where it's expected to be used by mod_perl-run scripts.  Similarly, perl-SOAP-Lite seems to allow using FCGI module (HTTP::FCGI transport), but does not require perl(FCGI).

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-SOAP-Lite-0.712-3

Additional info:
This obviously is about trade-off related to optional requirements - more complete (and correct) requirements vs. requirements not longer than required in typical use case.
