+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> view to committing it.
+</I>&gt;<i> Here you have...
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Many thanks Guillaume
+
+&gt;<i> You'd better use an author-neutral URL for the sources, such as
+</I>&gt;<i> <A HREF="http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Sys/%{upstream_name">http://www.cpan.org/modules/by-module/Sys/%{upstream_name</A>}-%{upstream_version}.tar.gz
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> This way, if another maintainer submit a new version, the URL will stay
+</I>&gt;<i> valid (and automatic update tool will work).
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Yes - I learned something
+&gt;<i> The runtime depency on perl is useless: you can't install mageia without
+</I>&gt;<i> perl anyway, and the minimal version isn't very helpful either.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Done
+&gt;<i> But you do need a build dependency (buildrequires) on perl-devel, as it
+</I>&gt;<i> is a native perl package, you won't be able to build without it.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Done
+&gt;<i> you should not include the debug files (the .debug, and the source
+</I>&gt;<i> files), they will be automatically included in the implicit
+</I>&gt;<i> perl-Sys-Mmap-debug package. Especially as the path you're using here is
+</I>&gt;<i> x86_64-specific :) So just forget them.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> You should not own the %{perl_vendorlib} directory (it belongs to perl
+</I>&gt;<i> package), but just the subdirectory %{perl_vendorlib}/Sys, which is the
+</I>&gt;<i> base directory for your package files.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>Thanks - that explains the problem with the debug etc. as well - they
+were being listed as installed but not packaged hence my comment and
+their inclusion ;)
+ &gt;
+&gt;<i> The %clean section isn't needed anymore with rpm 4.8
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>OK sth else I learned.
+&gt;<i> Usually, the document files (%doc macro) are listed first, but that's
+</I>&gt;<i> purely cosmetic.
+</I>Moved.
+
+Some of your above comments would also apply to the current
+perl-Sys-Mknod.spec which I used as a template ;)
+
+Updated version attached.
+
+Barry.
