Monday 28th September 2026

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS to 4.53 in F-45 and Rawhide:

  • Fix C90 violations with arm neon (GH#258)

  • Added a native arm64 test runner

• Updated perl-Exception-Class to 1.46 in F-45 and Rawhide:

  • If you use Exception::Class to create a class whose module file is already loaded, it no longer overwrites the %INC entry for that module with the path to Exception/Class.pm; typically, this happens when you have a package that implements an exception with the same name as the package itself (GH#17)

  • Similarly, if a package defines a $VERSION, this is no longer overwritten when the exception class is defined with Exception::Class (GH#18)

• Updated perl-MooseX-Aliases (0.11), perl-MooseX-Types-Stringlike (0.003), perl-MouseX-ConfigFromFile (0.05), perl-MouseX-SimpleConfig (0.11) and perl-MouseX-Types-Path-Class (0.07) in Rawhide to use the %{make_build} and %{make_install} macros during the build

Local Packages

• Updated perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS to 4.53 as per the Fedora version

Wednesday 23rd September 2026

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-MIME-tools to 5.519 in F-45 and Rawhide:

  • Some (buggy) software creates base64-encoded parts as a concatenation of multiple base64-encoded streams, and some client software decodes each stream separately and concatenates the results; duplicate this behaviour in MIME::tools to prevent it from being used as a mechanism to sneak dangerous content past a security scanner

• Updated perl-Taint-Util (0.08), perl-Test-CPAN-Meta (0.25), perl-Test-CPAN-Meta-JSON (0.16), perl-Test-CPAN-Meta-YAML (0.25), perl-Test-Exception (0.43), perl-Test-HasVersion (0.014), perl-Test-Modern (0.013), perl-Test-RequiresInternet (0.05), perl-Test-Signature (1.11), perl-Test-TinyMocker (0.05), perl-Test-XML (0.08) and perl-Test-YAML-Meta (0.22) in Rawhide to use the %{make_build} and %{make_install} macros during the build
