Re: Perl RC2 is upoloaded


Hallo Nicholas,

@ perl
category: Interpreters
requires: cygwin gdbm db4.0
version: 5.8.0-RC2-1

This isn't correct.  If DB is really in the requires list then it
should read 'libdb4.0', but:

$ cygcheck perl.exe
Found: .\perl.exe
Found: H:\bin\perl.exe
.\perl.exe
  .\cygperl5_8_0.dll
    .\cygwin1.dll
      C:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINNT\System32\ntdll.dll

If I look closer, both, gdbm and db aren't really required to run perl.
Just 'some' modules are linked against the dll's (DB_File, GDBM_File):

Use -h to see help about each section
./5.8.0/cygwin-multi-64int/auto/DB_File/DB_File.dll
  H:\bin\cygperl5_8_0.dll
    H:\bin\cygwin1.dll
      C:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINNT\System32\ntdll.dll
  H:\bin\cygdb-4.0.dll

Use -h to see help about each section
./5.8.0/cygwin-multi-64int/auto/GDBM_File/GDBM_File.dll
  H:\bin\cygperl5_8_0.dll
    H:\bin\cygwin1.dll
      C:\WINNT\System32\KERNEL32.dll
        C:\WINNT\System32\ntdll.dll
  H:\bin\cyggdbm.dll

Is it right to put them on the requires line in this case?
