Multi-owned perl directories in perl package in F-13

Hi,

Looking at a review, https://bugzilla.redhat.com/608470

I'd like to raise a question about multi-owned dir.

Until F-12, we have an exception
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Perl#Directory_Ownership

Since F-13, as perl use /usr/share/perl5 as perl_vendorlib, we probably
have to apply standard Guidelines:
	"MUST: Packages must not own files or directories already
	owned by other packages."

But this, will requires come conditional stuff...

	%if 0%{?fedora} >= 12
	%{perl_vendorlib}/Test/Script
	%else
	%{perl_vendorlib}/Test
	%endif

How this should be handled nicely ?

Regards,
Remi.
