Fedora Packaging Guidelines for Perl 6 Modules

Naming Guidelines

Perl 6 module packages generally follow the naming scheme of rakudo-<Perl-6-Module-Name>.

For example if the code to load a perl 6 module would be:

use XML::Writer;

then the Name tag is:

Name: rakudo-XML-Writer

More examples for package names are: rakudo-LibraryCheck, rakudo-Readline, rakudo-Inline-Perl5

Macros

Macro	Description
%rakudo_rpm_version	release number
%perl6_vendor_dir	vendor directory (%{_libdir}/perl6/vendor)

Directory Ownership

The directories and the version file

• %perl6_vendor_dir/*
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/bin
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/dist
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/precomp
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/resources
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/short
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/sources
  • %perl6_vendor_dir/version
• %perl6_site_dir/*
  • ...

are owned by the rakudo interpreter package. The Perl 6 module packages only own the files and directories underneath the directories %perl6_vendor_dir/*

%files
