Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.968 in Rawhide:

    • Behaviour Change: removed implicit defaults of certs/server-{cert,key}.pem for SSL_{cert,key}_file and ca/certs/my-ca.pem for SSL_ca_file; these defaults were deprecated since 1.951 (July 2013)

    • Usable CA verification path on Windows etc.:

      • Do not use Net::SSLeay::CTX_set_default_verify_paths any longer to set system/build dependent default verification path, because there was no way to retrieve these default values and check if they contained usable CA

      • Instead, re-implement the same algorithm and export the results with public function default_ca() and make it possible to overwrite it

      • Also check for usable verification path during build; if no usable path is detected, require Mozilla::CA at build and try to use it at runtime

Local Packages

  • New package perl-Exporter-Tiny (0.036)

  • New package perl-Test-API (0.003)

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.968 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Perl-Tidy to fix insecure temporary file usage (CVE-2014-2277)

  • Updated perl-Text-CSV_XS to 1.05:

    • Allow case insensitive attributes and attribute aliases (quote_always = always_quote)

    • Enhanced the csv() function (diagnostics)

    • Start callbacks support
    • Minor doc fixes
    • Make subclassing safer

  • Updated perl-XML-LibXML to 2.0112:

    • Fix segfaults when accessing attributes of DTD nodes (CPAN RT#71076)

    • Make $schema->validate work with elements; this uses xmlSchemaValidateOneElement under the hood (CPAN RT#93496)

    • Passing { recover => 2 } directly to load_html didn't work (CPAN RT#93429)

    • Apply patch to build with MSVC on Windows (CPAN RT#90064)

  • Updated php-Smarty to 3.1.17:

    • Bugfix: Smarty_CacheResource_Custom did not handle template resource type specifications on clearCache() calls (Issue 169)

    • Bugfix: SmartyBC.class.php should use require_once to load Smarty.class.php (Forum Topic 24683)

    • Bugfix: "* }" (spaces before right delimiter) was interpreted by mistake as comment end tag (Issue 170)

    • Internals: content cache should be clear when updating cache file

    • Bugfix: the compiler failed when using template inheritance and recursive {include} (smarty-developers group)

    • Bugfix: undo block nesting checks for {nocache} for reasons like Forum Topic 23280 (Forum Topic 24762)

    • Bugfix: $smarty->debugging = true; showed the variable of the $smarty object, not the variables used in display() call (Forum Topic 24764)

    • Bugfix: clearCompiledTemplate(), clearAll() and clear() should use realpath to avoid possible exception from RecursiveDirectoryIterator (Issue 171)

    • Bugfix: shared.literal_compiler_param.php threw an exception when literal contained a '-' (smarty-developers group)

    • Bugfix: a '//' or '\\' in template_dir path could produce wrong path on relative filepath in {include} (Issue 175)

    • Bugfix: Smarty failed when executing PHP on HHVM (Hip Hop 2.4) because uniqid('',true) returns string with ',' (Forum Topic 20343)

    • Bugfix: relative file path {include} within {block} of child templates threw exception on first call (Issue 177)
