Fedora Project

  • Rebuilt perl-BerkeleyDB in F-16 and Rawhide for the libdb 5.2.36 update

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.39 in Rawhide:

    • Downgraded Module::Install to 0.93 since 1.01 was causing problems in the Makefile

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-BerkeleyDB to BuildRequire: perl(Cwd) since that module's no longer in the Perl core; the rebuild picked up the libdb 5.2.36 update in F-16 and Rawhide

  • Updated perl-Module-CoreList to 2.56:

    • Updated for v5.15.3
    • Corrected version of Module::CoreList shipped with v5.10.0

    • Corrected Errno being shipped with v5.6.0 and v5.6.1

    • Corrected VMS::Filespec being shipped with v5.12.3

    • Corrected DB_File being shipped with v5.8.2

    • Added http://perlpunks.de/corelist to SEE ALSO

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.39 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-XML-LibXML to 1.88:

    • Add libxml2 2.7.8 as tested and working fine for the Makefile.PL

    • Apply a patch to perl-libxml-sax.c to use xmlChar * instead of char *

    • Correct the README so it doesn't refer to XML-LibXML-Common (see http://code.activestate.com/lists/perl-xml/8907/)

    • Add a patch to implement the no_defdtd option in recent libxml2 versions (CPAN RT#70878)

    • Add scripts/bump-version-number.pl to modify the version number globally (previously the version numbers of the modules under lib/ were 1.73)
