Hi Phil, most rpmforge perl packages do not have perl requirements set explicitly as the get added at build time by perl-find-requires. Recently we have seen a lot of dependencies wich perl-find-requires did not catch. I am thinking about using an alternative find-requires script or a reworked version of dar. Anyway i will add that one manually tomorrow. Thanks you for reporting!
