Because all Fedora branches recognize perl-interpreter dependency now
I will start renaming the dependency in all affected packages. There
will be two rounds:
(1) I will rename BuildRequires in 2300 spec files. The only change will
be the rename. Not Release bump. The commit message will be "perl
dependency renamed to perl-interpreter
<https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/perl_Package_to_Install_Core_Modul...;.
This was completed yesterday.
(2) I will rename Requires (and BuildRequires where presented) in
another 74 packages. These will receive Release bump and they will be
rebuilt in Koji. Everything in one commit with the same commit message.
(The 75th package is "kernel" that will receive only the rename. No
release bump, no rebuild.)
This is almost done. Few packages failed to rebuild due to other
reasons. I will file bugs and possibly try fixing them.
Then I will rename binary perl package to perl-interpreter in
perl.spec
and rebuild perl. This will effectively materialize the goal of this
change.
I'm going to do this tomorrow.
You can consider the mass rename having been finished.
