Paul,

I don't feel confortable creating a bundle of Log::Dispatch,
Log::Dispatch::FileRotate, and Log::Log4perl because:

 i) these three perl distros are maintained by different people (the three
DateTime modules that have been bundled are all maintained by Dave Rolsky)

  ii) the circular dependencies are only caused by the test suite
as this module only extends Log::Dispatch but uses Log::Log4perl as it
main log infrastructure in the test suite (most likely, the test suite
should be redone using only Log::Dispatch or, at least, conditional
require Log::Log4perl).

iii) The author of Log::Dispatch::FileRotate doesn't appear to be very
responsive, at leasat judging from the rt tickets
(http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/Bugs.html?Dist=Log-Dispatch-FileRotate); at least I
haven't got any answer for #14563.

/jpo

PS - I will start submitting Log::Log4perl and its building requiments in the
next hours/days: I need to review one more time the ones I have at
http://gsd.di.uminho.pt/jpo/software/fedora/
