Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Class-Load to 0.19 in F-17 and Rawhide (no functional changes)

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.46 in F-17 and Rawhide (changes too numerous to mention)

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Class-Load to 0.19 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements to "provide" a six-digit version number of the module since there are other packages in Fedora that have such dependencies from when it was bundled with perl-CPAN-Meta

  • Updated perl-Moose to 2.0403 (no functional changes)

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.46, not without problems:

    • First, it wouldn't even build with perl < 5.8.8: 

    • gcc -c -I/usr/include -D_REENTRANT -D_GNU_SOURCE -DTHREADS_HAVE_PIDS -DDEBUGGING -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -I/usr/local/include -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -I/usr/include/gdbm -O2 -g -pipe -m32 -march=i386 -mtune=pentium4 -DVERSION=\"1.46\" -DXS_VERSION=\"1.46\" -fPIC "-I/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/CORE" SSLeay.c
SSLeay.xs: In function `pem_password_cb_invoke':
SSLeay.xs:912: error: `n_a' undeclared (first use in this function)
SSLeay.xs:912: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
SSLeay.xs:912: error: for each function it appears in.)
make: *** [SSLeay.o] Error 1

    • This turned out to be because POPpx required a variable STRLEN n_a in scope prior to Perl 5.8.8; I raised this upstream as CPAN RT#76267

    • Second, the test suite failed on all x86_64 builds prior to F-15:

    • It appears that openssl versions prior to 1.0.0g return different values for an AES1_INTEGER value of -1; this was already raised upstream as CPAN RT#76266
