Oh... I see. Sorry, didn't think about that! :-P

Actually, I gave it a try to a version of the spec file without the
"noarch", which produced an "fc18.x86_64" package, but got the same
result when trying to install it...

That does not seem to change much, at the end o the output of `rpmbuild
-ba' I'm still seeing this:

Requires(rpmlib): rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1 rpmlib(FileDigests) <= 4.6.0-1 rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
Requires: /bin/sh /usr/bin/perl perl(Carp) perl(Digest::MD5)
perl(English) perl(Env) perl(File::Copy) perl(File::Path)
perl(File::Slurp) perl(File::Spec) perl(File::Temp) perl(Getopt::Long)
perl(Moose) perl(POSIX) perl(Pod::Usage) perl(Text::Template)
perl(Xen::Tools::Log) perl(any) perl(strict) perl(warnings)

i.e., "perl(any)" is still there, and that is still where trying to
install the package dies. :-(

Sorry, what do you mean by "try to remove it completely" ?

Thanks a lot for replying,
Dario
