Bug 416250

kdesrc-build requires perl-IPC-Cmd package to run on fedora.

That's not listed in the instructions here:

https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Follow the steps here on a new Fedora 31 installation:
https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/development
starting with "One-time setup: your development environment".

OBSERVED RESULT

./kdesrc-build --initial-setup
* Unable to even load the simplistic initial setup support for some reason??

More detail might be available in error-6619.log

EXPECTED RESULT

KDE development environment should be set up.


SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS

cat /etc/fedora-release 
Fedora release 31 (Thirty One)
uname -a
Linux clamps 5.4.8-200.fc31.x86_64 #1 SMP Mon Jan 6 16:44:18 UTC 2020 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
perl --version

This is perl 5, version 30, subversion 1 (v5.30.1) built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi

-------------------------------

This can be resolved by changing

Fedora: sudo dnf install git cmake dialog perl

to

Fedora: sudo dnf install git cmake dialog perl perl-IPC-Cmd

but I didn't see how to sign in and edit the wiki page myself, so I'm posting it here so someone with the required access can make the change.
