All,
For the package I want build, I need about 15 perl packages from CPAN.
My first real success is perl-Net-Pcap in home:gregfreemyer:Tools-for-forensic-boot-cd
I want to make sure I handle this right so I can submit it to a devel project. No reason for it not to be there.
So, I created it by branching a copy from Leo Eraly
The spec file needed one little tweak to work wiht 11.4, but now it seems to be working and I replaced the static source with a service pulling the tgz file from CPAN.

Once tested and I run the specfile cleaner on it, I'd like to SR this to a devel project.
I don't really feel like the packager. Should I leave his name in the specfile and SR it when I'm ready? Or change the packager to be me?
You can create cpan perl modules by installing cpanspec and run it as cpanspec Net::Pcap - you will create packages most often perfectly fine for devel:languages:perl without having to feel like a packager. And we don't use the Packager: field, it's mainly for upstream projects where the packager is the first line of contact, we set Packager: to http://bugs.opensuse.org Greetings, Stephan -- Sent from openSUSE -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
