Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-AnyEvent to 7.05 in F-20 and Rawhide:

    • uts46data.pl couldn't be found due to wrong naming of the file

    • Handle lone \015's properly in AE::Handle's default line read

    • Untaint IP addresses found in /etc/hosts

    • The memleak fix in 7.03 caused resolving via /etc/hosts always to fail on first use

    • Expose AnyEvent::Log::format_time, and allow users to redefine it

    • Expose AnyEvent::Log::default_format, and allow redefinition

    • Expose AnyEvent::Log::fatal_exit, to allow redefinition

    • AnyEvent::Debug shell can now run coro shell commands, if available

    • t/63* tests were wrongly in MANIFEST

    • kernel.org's finger server went MIA, switch to freebsd.org and icculus.org

    • Clarify that IO::AIO and AnyEvent::AIO are needed for AnyEvent::IO to function asynchronously

    • Hard-disable $^W in most tests; it generates too much garbage output

    • Use a (hopefully) more future-proof method to emulate common::sense

    • Upgrade to UTS-46:6.2.0
    • Switch to INSTLIB from INSTLIBDIR, as INSTLIBDIR was wrongly documented; should not affect anything

  • Updated perl-Module-Metadata to 1.000015 in F-18, F-19, F-20 and Rawhide:

  • Updated perl-YAML-Tiny to 1.53 in F-20 and Rawhide:

    • Updated repository metadata to reflect move to github
  • Ralf Corsepius kindly reviewed and approved my perl-Parallel-Runner package submission
