Paul's Blog Entries for July 2013

Monday 1st July 2013

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-Test-Requires to 0.07 in Rawhide:

  • If the RELEASE_TESTING environment variable is true, then instead of skipping tests, Test::Requires bails out

  • Document that use Test::Requires "5.010" works

Local Packages

• New package perl-File-ShareDir (1.03)

• New package perl-Spellunker (0.2.3)

• Updated curl to restore the functionality of 'curl -u :'

• Updated perl-Module-Build-Tiny to use File::ShareDir in its test suite

• Updated perl-Test-Requires to 0.07 as per the Fedora version

• Updated perl-XML-LibXML to 2.0019:

  • Correct typos (CPAN RT#86599)

Tuesday 2nd July 2013

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-DBM-Deep to 2.0009 in Rawhide:

  • Fix for pushing non-true values in DBM::Deep::Array (CPAN RT#85414)

• It also needed a patch for some broken POD (CPAN RT#85252)

Local Packages

• Updated perl-Array-Diff to add the missing build requirement of perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker)

• Updated perl-Class-Data-Inheritable to add the missing build requirement of perl(ExtUtils::MakeMaker)

• Updated perl-constant-boolean to tweak the perlcritic test, which has discovered something to moan about (the unimport function's name)

• Updated perl-DateTime-Locale to fix a FTBFS issue: DateTime::LocaleCatalog was renamed to DateTime::Locale::Catalog and is just a stub POD file now that details the renaming, so when the current version of Pod::Coverage tries to load the module to find the symbols, it can't and fails the test

  Failed 1/12 test programs. 1/10489 subtests failed.

• Fortunately, perl-DateTime-Locale has a non-standard POD Coverage test, which made it easy to tweak it not to check the LocaleCatalog.pm file:

• DateTime::LocaleCatalog has been renamed to DateTime::Locale::Catalog
  and cannot be loaded

Wednesday 3rd July 2013

Fedora Project

• Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.951 in Rawhide:

  • Major behaviour change:

    • ssl_verify_mode now defaults to verify_peer for client

    • Previously it used verify_none, but loudly complained since 1.79 about it

    • It will not complain any longer, but the connection will probably fail

    • Please don't simply disable ssl verification; instead, set SSL_ca_file etc. so that verification succeeds!

  • Major behaviour change:

    • It will now complain if the built-in defaults of certs/my-ca.pem or ca/ for CA and certs/{server,client}-{key,cert}.pem for cert and key are used, i.e. no certificates are specified explicitly

    • In the future these insecure (relative path!) defaults will be removed and the CA replaced with the system defaults

  • Use Net::SSLeay::SSL_CTX_set_default_verify_paths to use openssl's built-in defaults for CA unless CA path/file was given (or IO::Socket::SSL built-ins used)

• Updated perl-Tree-DAG_Node to 1.12 in Rawhide:

  • Change text in README referring to licence to match text in body of source, since it was in conflict with the Artistic Licence V 2.0

Local Packages

• Updated ppp to fix a possible NULL pointer dereference

Friday 5th July 2013

Local Packages

• Updated perl-Filter not to try to run the kwalitee test as it tries to verify the module's signature, which will fail if we have to patch Makefile.PL, tests etc. for old distribution support, and also to add an upstream fix to omit the empty Filter::decrypt from the POD coverage test

• Updated perl-Perl-Critic-Pulp to 80:

  • New policy Documentation::ProhibitParagraphEndComma

  • Tests UnexpandedSpecialLiteral.t don't exercise __PACKAGE__ => across newline since that might be going to change in Perl 5.20 (CPAN RT#87307)

• There were also issues with the POD and README, which I sent upstream along with that patch; there was a subsequent 3.72 release (which I updated to) but that only addressed the main install path issue

• Updated perl-CPAN-Meta-Check to 0.007 as per the Fedora version

• Updated perl-Eval-Closure to 0.11:

  • Add "alias => 1" option for making closure variables actually alias the closed over variables (so the variable referenced in the environment hashref will actually be updated by changes made in the closure)

• Updated perl-Sub-Exporter as per the Fedora version
