Hello,

Current F18 delivers `perl(Module::Build) = 0.3800' and following packages
build-require versioned Module::Build:

EekBoek-0:2.00.04-1.fc18.src
perl-BackPAN-Index-0:0.40-4.fc17.src

However Perl 5.16.0 delivers `perl(Module::Build) = 0.39' ($VERSION=0.39_01
more precisly):

$ rpm -q --provides -p RPMS/perl-Module-Build-0.3901-218.fc18.noarch.rpm |sort
perl(inc::latest::private) = 0.39
perl(inc::latest) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Base) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Compat) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::ConfigData)  
perl(Module::Build::Config) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Cookbook) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Dumper) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::ModuleInfo) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Notes) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::aix) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::Amiga) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::cygwin) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::darwin) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::Default) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::EBCDIC) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::MacOS) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::MPEiX) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::os2) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::RiscOS) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::Unix) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::VMS) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::VOS) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Platform::Windows) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::PodParser) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::PPMMaker) = 0.39
perl(Module::Build::Version) = 0.87
perl(Module::Build::YAML) = 1.41
perl(Module::Build) = 0.39
perl-Module-Build = 1:0.3901-218.fc18

Also CPAN upstream returned to two-digit versions:

Module-Build-0.40
Module-Build-0.39_02
Module-Build-0.39_01
Module-Build-0.3800
[...]

Which is the reason why Fedora upstream monitoring has not noticed new
Module::Build version.

My question is what to do? We can

(1) prolong the provides to 0.3901 which will require a lot of code with
__exclude_provides and injection of artitifical Provides.

(2) contrack version to 0.39 and increase epoch (both package and Provides).
That means adding epoch to provides which again requires painful Provides
editing as in (1).

(3) keep short 0.39, increase package epoch only and remove the version
constrain from build-requires of above listed packages.

I like the last option.
