Fedora Project
Became owner of perl-Module-Signature in Fedora (I was already owner in EPEL)
Submitted a Review Request for perl-CPAN-Changes
Local Packages
New package perl-CPAN-Changes (0.16)
New package python-pyasn1 (0.0.12a)
Updated perl-Params-Util to 1.04:
Fix have_compiler returns false, can_xs returns true (CPAN RT#67522)
Updated perl-Params-Validate to 0.97, which was quite a big change packaging-wise as I needed to add a big patch to support building with Test::More < 0.88 on older distributions, lots of extra buildreqs for new tests, a patch to add some extra stopwords to the spelling test for words not in Fedora/Red Hat dictionaries, and a patch to support building/running with Perl 5.8.0:
The XS version of the code always called Carp::confess, regardless of whether you provided your own on_fail callback (CPAN RT#66359)
There were a couple of spots that called eval without localizing $@ first (CPAN RT#58087)
Include (but disabled for now) parameter spec validation (CPAN RT#57831)
Lots of little pod fixes (CPAN RT#61002)
- This module now requires Perl 5.8.1
- Switched to version 2.0 of the Artistic License
Updated python-twisted-conch to require python-pyasn1 (Bug #696100)
