I thought that the package naming guidelines would have adviced to
use
perl-$CPANDIST, but instead it goes on to say things about "the CPAN module
name".
Can we agree upon this and make this mandatory for FE?
Is there consenus on this?
IMO, that makes no sense because the unit of CPAN module packaging is
a CPAN
_distribution_, and the vast majority those distributions contain more than
one module. What's "the CPAN module name" then? Just using the CPAN
distribution name would work, and is already used in all CPAN packages I'm
aware of.
I would not bet on FC, but I guess, you are right as far as FE is
concerned.
How to proceed with this package?
1. Apply cvs tricks (I.e. an admin moving the files in CVS)?
2. Re-import the package into CVS under "perl-gettext" and "cvs rm"
perl-Locale-gettext?
3. Let it be in FC-4 and re-import it as "perl-gettext" into "devel"?
