            Bug ID: 906007
           Summary: Please revert the "unbundling" of
                    "inc::Module::Install::DSL", at least when
                    bootstrapping
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
         Component: perl-File-Remove
          Severity: unspecified
          Priority: unspecified
          Reporter: paul at city-fan.org

A recent change to the perl-File-Remove package involved removing the bundled
Module::Install::DSL and adding a BuildRequires for it. A side-effect of this
is that perl-File-Remove and perl-Module-Install now BuildRequire each other,
which will prevent a clean bootstrapping of the next major perl release.

Please consider reverting this change, or conditionalizing it on not being a
bootstrap build (using the %{?perl_bootstrap} macro).

I can't understand why this was done in the first place, as it's not a library
bundling issue (the bundled module is not shipped in the built package), and
seems akin to deleting a "configure" script and re-running the autotools, which
goes contrary to upstream methodology.
