Description Frank Ch. Eigler 2012-02-15 15:41:41 UTC 
A lot of PMDAs in the base rpm are implemented as perl scripts,
all of which fail if the perl-PCP-PMDA subrpm happens not to be
installed.  The latter should most likely be Require:'d.
Comment 1 Mark Goodwin 2012-02-15 22:13:54 UTC 
Thanks for the report - this dependency has been noted before. Either we add
the prereq (most simple solution), or we roll the perl-PCP-PMDA bits into
the base RPM. Actually pcp-libs would probably be most appropriate since
the perl PMDA API is really a library, and pcp already requires pcp-libs.

Cheers

e.g. 3.6.8 includes this dependency.
