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!

Chris
