List,

I need some guidance.  I would like to build packages for a few perl 
modules to be submitted.  What is the overall view of using something 
like cpan2rpm for building rpms or spec files?  How would a package 
built using this hold up during the review process?  I am not real 
experienced in building rpms but would really like to give getting these 
modules included a shot.

My long-term goal for doing this is to eventually get netdisco (Netdisco 
is an Open Source web-based network management tool.  See 
http://netdisco.org) packaged and submitted.  However, there are a 
number of dependencies (the perl modules) that need to be packaged and 
submitted first.  Any guidance and/or suggestions would really be 
appreciated.

Thanks,
