--- Comment #6 from Paul Howarth <paul at city-fan.org> ---
This issue is unrelated to Bug #924938.

The perl dependency generator does not pick up this requirement because
Thread::Queue is only required conditionally:

  if ($perl_threads)
    {
      require threads;
      import threads;
      require Thread::Queue;
      import Thread::Queue;
    }

However, since Fedora's perl is built with threads, in practice it's always
needed. The correct fix has already been added to the automake package, namely:

Requires: perl(Thread::Queue)

However, the same applies to the "threads" module, which should also be
required:

Requires: perl(threads)
