Regarding your plans for participation in Fedora, do you see yourself sticking to perl modules or might you have other things to bring in in the future?
I want to contribute packages which I need myself, but recently everything I have needed was already packaged except some Perl modules. So for now, I will stick with Perl modules. (context: I have been building RPM packages for at least 12 years now, does anybody here remember Red Hat Contrib|Net, the early community packaging effort for Red Hat Linux?).
Are there any more "leaf" packages, that don't have any non-Fedora dependencies?
E.g. perl-TeX-Encode, perl-Scalar-String, perl-IO-Socket-Multicast, perl-Data-Integer, perl-Data-Float, or perl-DBD-ODBC.
Also, they all currently have the problem mentioned in comment #1 (directory ownership of %{perl_vendorarch}... as created by cpanspec).
This is more a matter of taste.
Well, perhaps the Packaging:Perl wiki page should be modified to not have this requirements then? (I cannot check the exact wording as Fedora wiki currently says 503 Service Unavailable for me).
