Description Barry Jackson 2011-09-07 00:19:44 CEST 
Description of problem: perl-Sys-Mmap is required by zoneminder which I am working on.
The attached perl-Sys-Mmap package builds in mga1 (perl 5.12.3)  but not in Cauldron (perl 5.14.1) where it fails tests.

Would someone please review this.

Thanks - however it has appeared in Cauldron as
perl-Sys-Mmap-0.160.0-1.mga2.x86_64.rpm when it is actually 0.16.0.
Is this a bug in cpan2pkg? 
I notice many perl modules with the same versioning error.
Comment 4 Jerome Quelin 2011-09-20 17:20:35 CEST 
that's normal, and done by %perl_convert_version rpm macro (used in *all* perl module rpms). the goal is to harmonize all perl module versions to a x.y.z scheme, for easier comparison by rpm.

see http://jquelin.blogspot.com/2009/05/rationalizing-perl-module-versions.html for the rationale.
