NP, no apologies needed.

I'd _LOVE_ to get the perl dependency autoextraction in RPM fixed and reliable. 
Most
recent attempt was a discussion with some CPAN guy at FOSDEM 2010.

The approach to fixing perl deps in RPM _MUST_ be global however. Otherwise you 
end-up
flip-flopping amongst bug-fixes endlessly. You really need to look at _ALL_ 
cases.

Been waiting patiently since first implemented in 2001, only a few have helped 
ever.
