Summary: filelist cleanup: drop unnecessary files, eliminate duplicates Product: Fedora Core Version: devel Platform: All OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: normal Component: perl AssignedTo: jvdias@redhat.com ReportedBy: altblue@n0i.net QAContact: dkl@redhat.com CC: fedora-perl-devel-list@redhat.com
Drop more cruft that comes with the usual installation (Attribute/Handlers/demo, CGI/eg, TODOs, READMEs, etc) and let DBM_Filter live (as we just want NDBM* out).
(patch for 5.8.7-0.7.fc5 spec attached)

------- Additional Comments From jvdias@redhat.com 2005-11-18 12:56 EST ------- OK, I'll put in most of these changes with the next perl-5.8.7-0.8.fc5 release - I'm still working on more upstream backports and a fix for bug 172792 . I disagree that README files, changelogs, and examples are "useless" - I think they should stay in.

------- Additional Comments From ville.skytta@iki.fi 2005-11-19 03:54 EST ------- It would be nicer to have the READMEs etc in the doc dir instead of being scattered somewhere below /usr/lib/perl5/x.x.x though.

------- Additional Comments From altblue@n0i.net 2005-11-19 09:17 EST ------- Indeed, "useless" is not an appropriate word for the matter, but the issue is valid - those files should really disappear _from /usr/lib/*_ I think it's better to not have them at all rather than scattered wherever on the filesystem. As Ville said, if you want to keep them, move them in %docdir. Farther, if you do that, than place those demo files there too, they should be useful too :)
OTOH, do you remember any redhat/fedora perl package that includes changelogs? They don't even include the license :|
If you want to fix this, then add this line to the %files list: %doc Artistic AUTHORS Changes* Copying README
And this to %install or something: # wanna have them, but compressed though ;-) %{__gzip} Changes*
