Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Coro to 6.29:

    • Clean remnants of existing __DIE__ and __WARN__ handlers so they lose their magic and will not cause segfaults later

    • Improved Coro::State documentation a bit

    • Coro::Debug::command now flushes the output

    • Add hack detection code for x32 ABI, because the braindead slugs who designed that made it look exactly like x86_64 without providing proper compile-time symbols to test for it; as a result, this detection cannot work reliably
    • valgrind stack registering was broken

    • Do not rely on Time::HiRes anymore in Coro::Debug

    • When an on_destroy handler destructs the coro currently being destructed, a perl scalar could be accessed after being freed, likely causing a crash

  • Updated perl-Moose to 2.0802:

    • Fix incompatibilities with Test::Builder 1.005+

    • Moose::Manual::Contributing updated to reflect the change of primary repository from git.moose.perl.org to github.com

  • Updated perl-Pod-Spell to 1.02:

    • Converted to dzil by new upstream maintainer
