--- Comment #10 from Petr Pisar  ---
I finished adding ExtUtils::CBuilder dependency to spec files. I omitted some
of them where it came as a transitive dependency of some other already used
XS-builder used module because I do not feel competent nor motivate to hunt the
specific piece of line responsible for executing gcc in foreign packages. I
fell little bit uneasy with this change.

--- Comment #9 from Petr Pisar  ---
There were no objections. The change is implemented in:

perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder-0.280230-3.fc29
perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker-7.32-2.fc29
perl-Module-Build-0.42.24-6.fc29

I also removed a hard dependency on perl-devel from perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker.

I also noticed that perl-Module-Install pulls in perl-devel and gcc
transitively. I will find out why.

--- Comment #7 from Petr Pisar  ---
I did some tests and if we want perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder to require gcc, we need
to remove dependency on ExtUtils::CBuilder from perl-Module-Build. That will
break 36 packages in Fedora.

Module-Build requires ExtUtils::CBuilder in META data, but at the same time
documents that Module::Build users should require ExtUtils::CBuilder
explicitly.

I'm keen to go this way and fix the 36 packages. I will send an e-mail to
perl-devel list the attract more attention and more ideas.

--- Comment #6 from Petr Pisar  ---
Compare to cmake bug #923024. cmake does not run-require any compiler although
it defaults to C++ and dies if it cannot find g++.

I will probably add both compilers as a hard dependency.

Not all archful packages use EU::CBuilder; those that don't should pull in gcc
themselves, but those that do use EU::CBuilder could reasonably expect it to
"just work" I think.

--- Comment #3 from Paul Howarth  ---
Looking at the gcc-removal.txt file, all of the failures mentioning EU::CB are
failing when trying to run gcc rather than g++.

So I'm inclined to add a hard dependency on gcc (the module is pretty much
useless without it) and a soft one on gcc-c++.

--- Comment #2 from Petr Pisar  ---
CBuilder::Base::compile() does:

  my @cc = $self->split_like_shell($args{'C++'} ? $cf->{cxx} : $cf->{cc});
  $self->do_system(@cc, @flags, $args{source})

Should we also hard-require gcc-c++? Or do we aim to "good enough" solution?

--- Comment #1 from Petr Pisar  ---
I did not yet look at the problem thoroughly. I remember we had a dependency on
gcc somewhere sometime and people did not like that installing Perl core
modules installs gcc. I need to look into it more deeply. Because I do not want
noarch packages to bring gcc into build root via some transitive dependency.
Also Perl guidelines states that archfull packages should build-require
perl-devel. I do not want tell people that they should build-require
EU::CBuilder instead.
