Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Archive-Tar to 2.02:

  • Updated perl-Coro to 6.41:

    • Restore portability to perl 5.8.x
    • Give new Coro's a valid GvHV(PL_hintgv) - this is slow and takes up some memory, but fixes "use feature" and similar modules when used inside a Coro

    • Allow zero as argument to Coro::Channel to mean the same thing as no argument; this works with older versions as well, but wasn't legal until now

    • Slightly better C header file detection
  • Updated perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements to 2.128:

    • Works around limitations in version::vpp detecting v-string magic

    • Requires version.pm 0.88 in metadata, but code should work with any version of version.pm
