            Bug ID: 2161639
           Summary: Pregenerated File-RsyncP-0.76/FileList/configure is
                    missing a source
           Product: Fedora
           Version: rawhide
            Status: NEW
         Component: perl-File-RsyncP
          Assignee: [email protected]

  Target Milestone: ---
           Link ID: Red Hat Bugzilla 199647
    Classification: Fedora



perl-File-RsyncP-0.76-10.fc38 source package delivers
File-RsyncP-0.76/FileList/configure file which itsels was generated with
Autoconf, but the original source for Autoconf tool (configure.in according to
File-RsyncP-0.76/FileList/Makefile.PL is missing from the source archive and
thus from the source package.

While the file is licensed as FSFULL which does not require distributing
sources, it is deemed to be against Fedora spirit (and Packaging guidelines?)
<https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/[email protected]/thread/PLZ55U3F7I24DUUNK55WZ7GBLF3OIWJE/>.

We should either reimplement configure.in or remove this package from a
distribution.
