sounds good.

Thanks for highlighting this one. It is solved now. A new package
for Term::ReadKey will be uploaded soon, just in case you want to
default to the sfe package some day.

Btw, the RSS feed of the IPS package server is pretty useful to just "see"
that there is an update or new packages available.


Behind the scenes, there was a change from older perl integrated in the
older OI installs where the path was /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.10.0/.
That included the "micro" part of the perl version as it did perl 5.8.4.

That has changed to /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.16 with updates to OIH
and then to /usr/perl5/vendor_perl/5.22. That removal of the "micro"
part was missed on the SFE side at the time when oihipster has been
integrated into the macros used in SFE.
We use that macros to have simple spec files but still use the os-distro
specifics by some macros. 

I've used the chance to fix the osdistro detection for OIHipster,
so that was a good trigger.

Regards,
Thomas
