The spec could probably stand to have some additional conditionals in it for 
el4/el5/other vendor's rpm-based distros/etc., but perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker is 
definitely needed as a BR: for all currently-supported-by-the-Fedora-Project 
Fedora releases (F7 for another week, F8, F9 and rawhide). Might want to 
coordinate that with Chris Ricker, who recently took over Fedora/EPEL 
maintainership of rrdtool from me.
