Hi. This is indeed a tricky problem. Ideally, people might want to have several different versions of the perl-core packages installed, and might want the ability to easily switch back and forth among them. So I am a bit concerned that the "perl-core-not" packages you propose would interfere with this.
However, I also agree that people can end up with a dependency that really doesn't work properly, because the proper x.y.z package for the perl module isn't installed. I hope we could find a solution to this problem that doesn't interfere with easy switching between perl versions, though... -- Dave ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
