Re: libfile-spec-perl vs libpathtools-perl

[David Bremner <bremner@unb.ca>]

Hi All;

Waldi has agreed to let the pkg-perl group maintain libfile-spec-perl
[0].  So I svn-injected and svn-upgraded the package.  Probably the
package needs a quick review by a more experienced packager.

From my point of view there are one or two areas of mystery left:

1) (This is really Martín's question) Do we need to follow dam's
cunning plan [0] and create a dummy package for libpathtools-perl, or
can we just fix the rdepends (since there is only one and it lives in
pkg-perl svn).

2) Should libfile-spec-perl conflict with libpathtools-perl or replace
it?

3) There is no explicit packaging copyright information. Is this OK
for us?
