    • update broken link in FAQ
    • strip a few extra problematic characters when generating oldmail filenames

  • Updated perl-DateTime-Format-Strptime to 1.3000 (changed license to Artistic 2.0, fixed bug where specifiers such as %e that allowed for leading space before a number would previously cause DateTime.pm to throw an error if the date being parsed actually contained leading space - CPAN RT#58459); I also added buildreqs Test::EOL, Test::NoTabs, Test::Pod, Test::Pod::Coverage, and Test::Spelling and enabled AUTHOR_TESTING and RELEASE_TESTING for higher test coverage and added patches to support building with ExtUtils::MakeMaker < 6.31 and to get the spell check test working reliably

  • Updated perl-Exception-Class to 1.31 (changed license to Artistic 2.0, made it possible to use Exception::Class::Base without loading Exception::Class - CPAN RT#57269); I also added buildreqs Test::EOL and Test::NoTabs for higher test coverage and added a patch to support building with ExtUtils::MakeMaker < 6.31

  • Updated perl-Net-CIDR to 0.14:

    • corrected some documentation errors
    • cidrvalidate() will validate either an IP address or a CIDR

    • re-implemented addr2cidr without Math::BigInt, which is much faster for IPv6 addresses
