Concerning RPM specs.
I created rpm packages on a x86_64 SuSE 10.3 system.
There were two complains about unmatched dependencies for expat-devel
and perl(Error)
I could not get rid off.
Thanks.
perl-error and expat-devel are both packaged outside git.
Aren't they listed in dependencies? At least I think
expat-devel is on the build dependency.
Our Makefile tries to install our own copy of perl::Error if the
build platform does not have one, which we do not want to do
when building a binary package. Perhaps perl-error needs to be
on the build dependency to deal with this issue? I dunno, as I
am not an RPM person.

The packages are in the dependency list. Only that they are
not installed (under the name given in the dependency list)
on my system. Nevertheless the build and install
and some simple tests work well.
For perl(Error) you have explained why it works. For openssh-client
I guess that things may be provided by packages
named differently. This is probably only an issue with SuSE.
Cheers,
