--- Comment #14 from Petr Pisar <ppisar at redhat.com> ---
I did a review before upgrading to 5.18. So I will have to rereview it again.
These were my findings so far:

Encode-devel

Useful but no strictly needed. It generates XS files which need Perl headers
to be usefull.

ExtUtils-CBuilder

Needed by ExtUtils::CBuilder (Compile and link C code for Perl modules).

ExtUtils-Embed

Generates perl bindings and returns compiler options for linking to perl. It's
like a pkg-config file, it should need it.

ExtUtils-Install

Does not need perl-devel. It only installs files and handle packlists.

ExtUtils-MakeMaker

TODO: Entry point for Makefile.PL to build not only XS modules. Consider
splitting.

ExtUtils-Manifest

Not needed.

ExtUtils-ParseXS

Not needed. Self-contained converter from XS to C.

Module-Build

TODO: The same case as ExtUtils-MakeMaker.

core

Header files are part of Perl core. Needed.
