Okay looks like the devel version did not  fix the colon parsing issues
in the deps.  I just tried upgrading :perl-Digest-HMAC which has colon
embedded deps...the devel package still freaks out about it

rpm -q --requires perl-Digest-HMAC
perl(Digest::SHA1)  
perl(Digest::MD5)  
rpmlib(PayloadFilesHavePrefix) <= 4.0-1
rpmlib(CompressedFileNames) <= 3.0.4-1
rpmlib(VersionedDependencies) <= 3.0.3-1
perl(Digest::HMAC)  
perl(Digest::MD5)  
perl(Digest::SHA1)  
perl(Exporter)  
perl(strict)  
perl(vars)  

here is what grab-devel tells me is the problem:

-Choose number(s): ('?' for help): 3
-Here is what I will download:
  perl-Digest-HMAC

-You selected 11K of archives
 ->Do you want to continue? [Y/n]: y
-Building local package provides database
-Searching for unresolved dependencies
 checking (100%):
perl-Digest-HMAC-1.01-8.noarch.rpm                           
        -perl(Digest
-The following packages have unresolvable
dependencies:                       
  perl(Digest

-Do you wish to continue? [Y/n]:


I can choose yes and continue on and grab installs it...but the problem
is grab isnt see the dep correct its seeing the dep as perl(Digest   
becuase grab is not parsing colons in the deps correctly. 
I think I'm going to downgrade to the last version of grab to double
check that the bug is new.
