That sounds much more plausible. Paul, is this what you were seeing ?

Removing perl-Module-Pluggable has the effect that checksetup can no longer
detect Email-Send. Running the command "perl -MEmail::Send -e '1'" gives the
following error :

Can't locate Module/Pluggable.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5
/usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at
/usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Email/Send.pm line 10.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Email/Send.pm
line 10.
Compilation failed in require.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted.

So Module::Pluggable is required by Email::Send but the package containing the
latter doesn't depend on the former. And bugzilla then fails because
Email::Send doesn't work.

Looking at Email::Send's source code, I suspect rpm doesn't understand the 'use
Module::Pluggable' line (note the lack of semi-colon at the end) and doesn't
include the dependency automatically.

> I think this module should be added as a dependency.

Definatly but it should be added in the perl-Email-Send package where it will
get pick up by all Email::Send users and not just bugzilla.

Spot, this one's yours.
