Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Business-ISBN and perl-URI in Rawhide to solve a mutual build dependency cycle in a much cleaner way, dropping LWP::Simple (which pulls in perl-URI) as a build requirement of perl-Business-ISBN (it's only needed for an optional test) instead of fiddling perl-URI not to require perl-Business-ISBN as a runtime dependency when bootstrapping

  • Updated perl-YAML-Syck to 1.23 in Rawhide:

    • Synchronize JSON::Syck with YAML::Syck version number

    • Add DumpInto functions (YAML+Syck), which dump into a provided scalar instead of a newly-allocated one

    • Modify DumpFile functions to output directly to the specified file/filehandle instead of buffering all output in memory

    • Avoid modifying numbers into strings when emitting
    • Fix error message typo: s/existant/existent/g

    • Fix for non-printable character detection
    • Quote if non-printable characters are present
    • Make sure that LoadBlessed=0 blocks all blessing

    • Start listing primary repo as http://github.com/toddr/YAML-Syck

    • README refreshed via perldoc -t
