Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Test-EOL to 1.0 in Rawhide:

    • Fix misleading test failure diagnostics when only issue is trailing whitespace
    • No longer blindly assume utf8 on input files (CPAN RT#59877)

    • Properly document testing options
  • Rebuilt bluefish, curl, glib, gtk+, libpng10, libxml, imlib, libglade and rbldnsd with gcc 4.7.0 in Rawhide

Local Packages

  • Updated gtkwave to 3.3.29:

    • Added OSX integration when compiled against gtk-osx

    • Added MIME types and icons for file types and desktop menus
    • Changed .sav (deprecated but not removed) to .gtkw, with .gtkw itself being able to bring up the original dumpfile

    • Numerous bug fixes
    • Preliminary GConf support supporting session ID-based restore
    • Preliminary GConf support to emulate OSX "open" functionality such that dumpfiles/savefiles can be targeted to an open gtkwave viewer/session ID

  • Updated perl-DateTime to 0.72:

    • There will be a new leap second on June 30, 2012
    • Remove Test::DependentModules from the dependency list

  • Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.025:

    • Tolerate leading and trailing whitespace around the regular expression; these are still round-trip safe, since the whitespace is tokenized
    • Make Changes file conform to CPAN::Changes, and add xt/author/changes.t to ensure continued compliance

  • Updated perl-Test-EOL to 1.0 as per the Fedora version
