Hi, fell over the problem, that perl usually is using other versioning scheme than rpm is. Example: Version changes of perl-Sub-Uplevel 0.22 Tue Nov 17 05:38:42 EST 2009 0.21_01 Sat Nov 29 15:24:49 EST 2008 0.2002 Thu Sep 11 14:33:09 EDT 2008 0.2001 Tue Sep 9 22:22:40 EDT 2008 0.20 Tue Sep 9 19:23:35 EDT 2008 perl is using a decimalized versioning, where 0.22 > 0.2002, but for rpm it isn't. I think most perl Module Authors do not really know, that they are using a decimalized versioning. IMHO ther perl version should be normalized for packaging. 0.22 would be normalized to 0.220.0 (version->new(0.22)->normal) and 0.2002. would be normalized to 0.200.200. I can adopt cpanspec to do this for newly created packages, but this will only work for perl(version) >= 0.77 (openSuSE >= 1130). And the two scripts (perl.prov, perl.req) delivered with rpm should be adopted too, cause "find-provides". What do you think ?
