if truly: noarch yes
-- some archives were formerly set up:
head
./i686/
./x86_64/
./noarch/
./repodata/ (covering all three 'arches')
which points up that 'noarch' is its own (special)
architecture .. usually the contents are written in a
scripting language (in your case, all perl or perl modules)
and not linked against any libraries that 'ldd' might find
You could just mirror the 'well stocked' ./noarch/ , and run
a:
createrepo .
and add a custom .repo stanza, and yum will solve and inferior
noarch dependencies out of it for you
