I don't see anything wrong with a perl metapackage, perl-core.
Would that be preferred to a yum group?
I have a bit of a surface loathing of metapackages.
Why is it that perl packages can't BuildRequire what they need? Is there real
good reason why a seemingly arbitrary rule like "don't BR 'core' perl
packages" should continue to exist, especially now that there is no clear
distinction of what is 'core' and what isn't?
