Bug ID: 1547165 Summary: perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder should require gcc Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Component: perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder Assignee: ppisar@redhat.com Reporter: paul@city-fan.org QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: jose.p.oliveira.oss@gmail.com, jplesnik@redhat.com, perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org, ppisar@redhat.com, steve@silug.org, tcallawa@redhat.com
In view of the likely upcoming removal of gcc from the default buildroot, it would make sense to add gcc as a dependency of perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder, given that the entire purpose of the module is to compile the C portions of perl modules.
This would fix a significant of number of perl modules that FTBFS without gcc in the default buildroot, as can be seen by looking at the logs from the failed builds: https://ignatenkobrain.fedorapeople.org/gcc-removal.txt
