            Bug ID: 1052853
           Summary: Unnecessary dependencies
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
         Component: perl-Throwable
          Assignee: iarnell at gmail.com
          Reporter: bochecha at fedoraproject.org

Description of problem:
perl-Throwable requires perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker) >= 6.11 which seems wrong to
me.

Looking at the sources:

  $ grep -rI ExtUtils .
  ./Makefile.PL:use ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.31;
  ./Makefile.PL:    'ExtUtils::MakeMaker' => '6.31'
  ./Makefile.PL:unless ( eval { ExtUtils::MakeMaker->VERSION(6.56) } ) {
  ./Makefile.PL:  unless eval { ExtUtils::MakeMaker->VERSION(6.52) };
  ./META.json:            "ExtUtils::MakeMaker" : "6.31"
  ./META.yml:  ExtUtils::MakeMaker: 6.31

So the BuildRequires seems ok, but the Requires should be removed?

This applies to all Fedora branches, not just Rawhide.
