Proposed patch

Two minor issues (cf. the patch):

* rpmlint perl-XML-XQL-0.68-0.2.noarch.rpm
E: perl-XML-XQL useless-explicit-provides perl(XML::XQL)

* Missing: "BR: perl(XML::DOM) >= 1.29"
(This causes the package to abort building early instead of at the end of
building, if an insufficient XML::DOM is installed)

Re: XML::DOM BR version: ack.  
  
Regarding the "useless-explicit-provides" one, surely you  
meant /perl(XML::XQL)$/d, right?  Without the trailing "$" (or similar), the 
package wouldn't provide any versioned nor versionless perl(XML::XQL).  
  
And of course, this being a perl module package, we'll use either perl or grep  
for stream editing, not sed, for crying out loud ;)

Of cause, stupid oversight of mine ;)

Nah, as a portability adict I prefer using a lean and POSIX-compliant tool, 
like "sed".

APPROVED

2 minor issues, without visible effect:

* I'd add 
BuildRequires: perl(XML::Parser) >= 2.30
BuildRequires: perl(Date::Manip) >= 5.33
to make these deps easier traceable should perl-packaging change (e.g. a module
be dropped) in future.

* XQLParser/Makefile.PL contains a hidden build-time dep on /usr/bin/yapp.
/usr/bin/yapp currently is part of perl-Parse-Yapp.
ATM, you BR perl(Parse::Yapp) [i.e. .../Parse/Yapp.pm]. I.e. /usr/bin/yapp is
only being pulled-in as a side effect of BR-ing perl(Parse::Yapp). Should the
location of /usr/bin/yapp ever change, this will break.

Thanks for the review, committed.  Will try to build later when the buildsys 
can see "perl(XML::DOM) >= 1.29".  Dunno why it currently can't. 
     
I didn't add any of the suggestions in comment 5, though:    
- Nothing in XML-XQL directly depends on XML::Parser    
- Date::Manip 5.36 was already in Red Hat 6.2, unversioned BR already in pkg  
- /usr/bin/yapp is only needed if XQLParser/Parser.pm is outdated or missing     

Build succeeded.

Me thinks something rpm's perl module dependency tracking probably is broken.
(C.f. the perl(DBI::Pg) issue.

Doesn't matter, Makefile.PL explictly checks for it, for whatever reasons.

Or being split out ;)

Not the same thing here.  This was apparently a buildsys local issue, repos not
updating or something.  Works now.

That results in a warning at worst, and doesn't affect the build.

What being split from where?  /usr/bin/yapp being split from perl-Parse-Yapp? 
XQLParser/Parser.pm being split from perl-XML-XQL?  Anyway, /usr/bin/yapp is not
needed to build whatever package XQLParser/Parser.pm is in as long as it's up to
date wrt XQLParser/Parser.yp, no matter what packages things are in.  Already
tested before committing by manually moving /usr/bin/yapp elsewhere and rebuilding.
