Summary: Unbundle DateTime::Locale and DateTime::TimeZone
Product: Fedora

Story Points: ---
Type: ---
Our perl-DateTime package bundles DateTime::Locale and DateTime::TimeZone. To
simplify maintenance, I would like to unbundle them and maintain them as
separate packages. (DateTime::TimeZone gets updated fairly frequently, but it's
not possible to get automatic notifications from Upstream Release Monitoring,
for example). It's also worth noting that neither suse nor debian bundle these
modules.
The original rationale for bundling was due to circular (build) dependencies.
This no longer applies for DateTime::Locale (DateTime::Locale does not require
DateTime). For DateTime::TimeZone, the circular dependencies can temporarily be
avoided using perl_bootstrap macro and appropriate filtering.
I've filed bug 730656 and bug 730657 for review of new perl-DateTime-Locale and
perl-DateTime-TimeZone packages.
