Update: perl-YAML-0.79-1.rhel3

Thu, 09 Feb 2012 09:58:38 +0000

Package: perl-YAML
Summary: YAML Ain't Markup Language (tm)

Description:
The YAML.pm module implements a YAML Loader and Dumper based on the YAML 1.0 specification (http://www.yaml.org/spec/). YAML is a generic data serialization language that is optimized for human readability. It can be used to express the data structures of most modern programming languages, including Perl. For information on the YAML syntax, please refer to the YAML specification.

Update: perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta-1.4402-1.rhel3

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 11:45:18 +0000

Package: perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta
Summary: Parse META.yml and META.json CPAN metadata files

Description:
Parse::CPAN::Meta is a parser for META.json and META.yml files, using JSON::PP and/or CPAN::Meta::YAML. It provides three methods: load_file, load_json_string, and load_yaml_string. These will read and de-serialize CPAN metafiles. Parse::CPAN::Meta provides a legacy API of only two functions, based on the YAML functions of the same name. Wherever possible, identical calling semantics are used. These may only be used with YAML sources. All error reporting is done with exceptions (die'ing).

Changes:

perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta-1.4402-1.rhel3.noarch [14 KiB]

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-08):

Package: perl-CPAN-Meta-YAML
Summary: Read and write a subset of YAML for CPAN Meta files

Description:
This module implements a subset of the YAML specification for use in reading and writing CPAN metadata files like META.yml and MYMETA.yml. It should not be used for any other general YAML parsing or generation task. This module is currently derived from YAML::Tiny by Adam Kennedy. If there are bugs in how it parses a particular META.yml file, please file a bug report in the YAML::Tiny bugtracker: http://rt.cpan.org/NoAuth/ReportBug.html?Queue=YAML-Tiny

Changes:

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 09:48:55 +0000

Package: perl-Pod-Coverage
Summary: Checks if the documentation of a module is comprehensive

Description:
Developers hate writing documentation. They'd hate it even more if their computer tattled on them, but maybe they'll be even more thankful in the long run. Even if not, perlmodstyle tells you to, so you must obey. This module provides a mechanism for determining if the pod for a given module is comprehensive.

Changes:

Wed, 08 Feb 2012 09:42:06 +0000

Package: perl-Archive-Zip
Summary: Perl library for accessing Zip archives

Description:
The Archive::Zip module allows a Perl program to create, manipulate, read, and write Zip archive files. Zip archives can be created, or you can read from existing zip files. Once created, they can be written to files, streams, or strings. Members can be added, removed, extracted, replaced, rearranged, and enumerated. They can also be renamed or have their dates, comments, or other attributes queried or modified. Their data can be compressed or uncompressed as needed. Members can be created from members in existing Zip files, or from existing directories, files, or strings.

Changes:

perl-Archive-Zip-1.30-6.rhel3.noarch [117 KiB]

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-08):

Package: perl-File-Which
Summary: Portable implementation of the 'which' utility

Description:
File::Which is a portable implementation (in Perl) of 'which', and can be used to get the absolute filename of an executable program installed somewhere in your PATH, or just check for its existence. It includes the command-line utility 'pwhich' which has the same function as 'which'.

Changes:

perl-File-Which-1.09-6.rhel3.noarch [17 KiB]

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-07):

- Don't BR: perl(Test::MinimumVersion) if we're bootstrapping

Update: perl-parent-0.225-6.rhel3

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 19:59:15 +0000

Description:
Allows you to both load one or more modules, while setting up inheritance from those modules at the same time. Mostly similar in effect to: package Baz; BEGIN { require Foo; require Bar; push @ISA, qw(Foo Bar); }

Changes:

perl-parent-0.225-6.rhel3.noarch [10 KiB]

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-07):

Update: perl-Class-Inspector-1.27-2.rhel3

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 18:42:24 +0000

Package: perl-Class-Inspector
Summary: Get information about a class and its structure

Description:
Class::Inspector allows you to get information about a loaded class. Most or all of this information can be found in other ways, but they aren't always very friendly, and usually involve a relatively high level of Perl wizardry, or strange and unusual looking code. Class::Inspector attempts to provide an easier, more friendly interface to this information.

Changes:

perl-Class-Inspector-1.27-2.rhel3.noarch [32 KiB]

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-07):

- Don't BR: perl(Test::MinimumVersion) if we're bootstrapping

Update: perl-Test-NoWarnings-1.04-2.rhel3

Tue, 07 Feb 2012 18:38:08 +0000

Package: perl-Test-NoWarnings
Summary: Make sure you didn't emit any warnings while testing

Description:
In general, your tests shouldn't produce warnings. This module causes any warnings to be captured and stored. It automatically adds an extra test that will run when your script ends to check that there were no warnings. If there were any warnings, the test will give a "not ok" and diagnostics of where, when and what the warning was, including a stack trace of what was going on when it occurred.

Changes:

perl-Test-NoWarnings-1.04-2.rhel3.noarch [27 KiB]

Package: perl-Devel-StackTrace
Summary: Perl module implementing stack trace and stack trace frame objects

Description:
The Devel::StackTrace module contains two classes, Devel::StackTrace and Devel::StackTraceFrame. The goal of this object is to encapsulate the information that can found through using the caller() function, as well as providing a simple interface to this data. The Devel::StackTrace object contains a set of Devel::StackTraceFrame objects, one for each level of the stack. The frames contain all the data available from caller() as of Perl 5.6.0.

Changes:

perl-Devel-StackTrace-1.27-6.rhel3.noarch [26 KiB]

Package: perl-Params-Validate
Summary: Validate method/function parameters

Description:
The Params::Validate module allows you to validate method or function call parameters to an arbitrary level of specificity. At the simplest level, it is capable of validating the required parameters were given and that no unspecified additional parameters were passed in. It is also capable of determining that a parameter is of a specific type, that it is an object of a certain class hierarchy, that it possesses certain methods, or applying validation callbacks to arguments.

Changes:

perl-Params-Validate-1.00-3.rhel3.x86_64 [69 KiB]

Package: perl-Version-Requirements
Summary: Set of version requirements for a CPAN dist

Description:
A Version::Requirements object models a set of version constraints like those specified in the META.yml or META.json files in CPAN distributions. It can be built up by adding more and more constraints, and it will reduce them to the simplest representation.

Changes:

Net::DNS is a collection of Perl modules that act as a Domain Name System (DNS) resolver. It allows the programmer to perform DNS queries that are beyond the capabilities of gethostbyname and gethostbyaddr. The programmer should be somewhat familiar with the format of a DNS packet and its various sections. See RFC 1035 or DNS and BIND (Albitz & Liu) for details.

Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-02-01):

- Update to 0.68
  - CPAN RT#72314: Let a Net::DNS::Nameserver bind on
    Net::DNS::Nameserver::DEFAULT_ADDR as a last resort
  - Fix to suppress false warnings about subroutine profiles on ancient
    versions of perl
  - Fix to avoid constants with value undef, which prevents unwanted code from
    being optimized away on ancient versions of perl
  - Fix code error in PTR.pm, canonical RDATA not downcased
  - Enhancement to clarify the function of parse and data methods, by renaming
    them to decode and encode respectively
  - Feature IDN query support: Queries for domain names containing non-ASCII
    characters are now possible on Unicode platforms with CPAN Net::LibIDN
    installed
  - Introduction of Mailbox.pm module that will be used in the future to
    represent RDATA components containing DNS coded RFC822 mailbox addresses
  - Introduction of Text.pm module that will be used in the future to represent
    RDATA components containing text
- Update patch to suppress "useless use of constant in void context" warnings
