Local Packages

  • Updated cdrtools to 3.01 alpha release 22

  • Updated check to 0.9.12:

    • Additional unit tests created for internal and external Check APIs
    • Check now compiled on Windows using MSVC when using CMake and NMake; all unit tests pass, though shell script based ones need to be run in the MSYS environment

    • Check now compiles on Windows using Visual Studio 10 when using CMake; check_check passes when run from Visual Studios

    • Always capture the start and end times of tests when using NO_FORK mode; previously the end time was not captured, resulting in arbitrary durations being recorded when tests failed (Bug #87)

    • Added additional configure script checks for support of timer_create() on the target system, which allows for OpenBSD to compile and run all Check's unit tests successfully

    • Added a unit test, check_mem_leaks, which can be used against valgrind to test for memory leaks (no memory leaks were found)

    • Added tcase_add_loop_test support in checkm (Patches #46)

    • Add support for logging in Test Anything Protocol (TAP) format
    • Refactor Check's assertions to be more like the assert() call in assert.h, in that static source code analyzers can use gcc attributes in the header to make assumptions about the flow of the code (see Feature Request #29)

    • Fix ck_assert_ptr_* causing const compilation warnings (Bug #91)

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-IP to 0.27:

    • Apply a short timeout to unit tests that probe for Internet connectivity, in case of bad firewalls, etc. (Perl RT#121037)

    • Defend against machines with IN6ADDR_LOOPBACK not being "::1" in unit tests, similar to the INADDR_LOOPBACK case (CPAN RT#92295)

  • Updated perl-Module-Build-Tiny to 0.033 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Module-CoreList to 3.04:

    • Prepared for v5.19.8
  • Updated perl-XML-SAX-Expat to 0.51:
