Installation requires perl-bignum on Fedora (likely CentOS/Redhat) for bigint package

[adamparker]

bigint was moved into a new package perl-bignum.

This was with Fedora 29.

Are you sure that all dependencies are installed? I just tried it with a fresh Docker container for Fedora 29, this works like a charm.

$ docker run -ti -v `pwd`:/mnt fedora:29 bash

I'm not sure about Fedora but on RHEL/CentOS8 I saw the same error message as @adamparker.
I tried these packages:

perl-Math-BigInt # (was installed by default)
perl-Math-BigInt-GMP
perl-Math-BigInt-FastCalc

but they didn't contain the needed bigint.pm. After installing perl-bigint the plugin started working.
