Hi all,
I'm trying to package perl-Data-Dumper (RHEL4 and RHEL5), and rpmlint is returning the following warning:
perl-Data-Dumper.x86_64: W: private-shared-object-provides /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi/auto/Data/Dumper/Dumper.so Dumper.so()(64bit)
How can I correct this behavior?
Best Regards, Nelson Manuel O. Marques

Assuming you don't understand this warning yet, so run rpmlint with option -i and that will print a more detailed explanation that should be helpful. If not, feel free to ask further questions.
Hi Michael,
Thanks, I had found meanwhile the information I was looking for in this wiki page[1]. I'll fix this tomorrow morning.

The filter mentioned there won't have any effect as the provide you are trying to remove is generated by rpm's internal dependency generator, not the perl-specific provides script.
I would suggest you ignore the rpmlint warning; virtually all arch-specific perl packages in EPEL 4 and 5 produce this warning; later releases of Fedora (and EPEL-6) include better filtering mechanisms that can handle this more comfortably but it's not a big deal.
Regarding perl-Data-Dumper, you may be disappointed with the results of packaging it as the Data::Dumper module is bundled with the main perl package in a directory right at the start of @INC in RHEL 4 and 5, so even if you build your own version and install it, you'll end up using the original (bundled) one unless you fiddle with @INC in any applications that use it.
