Fedora Project

  • Became owner of perl-JSON in new EPEL-4 branch and built it

  • Updated perl-Test-Spelling in F-14 and F-15 to 0.14; it's been in F-16 and Rawhide for months now, including through the Perl mass rebuild, and Test::Spelling ≥ 0.12 was needed for perl-Test-Mojibake

  • Submitted a review request for perl-Test-Mojibake

  • Updated tidyp to fix mangling of non-ASCII output filenames (Bug #725651) since an upstream release addressing the issue doesn't seem to be on the cards any time soon

Local Packages

  • New package perl-Test-Mojibake (0.3)

  • New package perl-Unicode-CheckUTF8 (1.03)

  • I raised CPAN RT#70210 to ask upstream to specify the license for this module

  • Updated perl-ExtUtils-ParseXS to 3.03, reinstating %{_bindir}/xsubpp and its manpage if we have perl ≥ 5.12.4, as per F-15 onwards (conflict with perl-devel in Bug #728393 was fixed in perl-5.12.4-160):

    • Test fix: Try all @INC-derived typemap locations (CPAN RT#70047)

  • Updated perl-JSON-XS to 2.32:

    • Fix a bug in the initial whitespace accumulation
  • Updated perl-Test-Version to not run the author/release tests when bootstrapping, BR: perl(Test::DistManifest) unconditionally now that it's available locally, and to additional BR's for improved release test coverage:

    • aspell-en/aspell-en-gb

    • perl(Pod::Wordlist::hanekomu)

    • perl(Test::CPAN::Meta::JSON)

    • perl(Test::Mojibake)

    • perl(Test::Vars)
