Monday 23rd March 2015

Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-CPAN-Meta-Check to 0.011 in F-22 and Rawhide:

    • Declare the minimum version required for the "merged_requirements" interface

  • Updated perl-FileHandle-Unget to 0.1624 in F-22 and Rawhide:

    • Moved code to github
    • Added POD test
    • Improve testability of binmode_bug.t, stdin_tell_bug.t

    • Implement a potential fix for test failures where FileHandle::getline() seems to be reading a single line even though $/ is undef

    • Use "local $/" instead of reassigning global $/

    • Improve documentation for input_record_separator()

  • Updated perl-JSON-MaybeXS to 1.003005 in F-22 and Rawhide:

  • Updated perl-Mail-Mbox-MessageParser to 1.5100 in F-22 and Rawhide:

  • Updated perl-Test-Warnings to 0.021 in F-22 and Rawhide:

    • Add a x_breaks entry for conflicting versions of File::pushd that inadvertently call our exported warnings() rather than invoking warnings.pm, and documented this undesired interaction

  • Updated perl-Tree-DAG_Node to 1.25 in Rawhide:

    • Deleted the undocumented sub _dump_quote(), which butchered Unicode characters when it tried to convert ASCII control characters into printable strings (on the assumption all data is ASCII); methods that used to call _dump_quote() now just output the node's name by calling quote_name(), which is discussed next, and undefined names are output as the string 'undef'

    • Add method quote_name(), which simply returns its input string surrounded by single-quotes

    • Add method decode_lol(), which converts the output of tree_to_lol() and tree_to_simple_lol() into something that is easy to read

    • Re-order a couple of methods called tree_*(), so that they are in alphabetical order

    • Expand the docs for methods tree_to_*(), regarding undefined node names

    • Add scripts/write.tree.pl, which creates the test input file t/tree.utf8.attributes.txt (note: this file is now much more complex than in previous versions)

    • Add scripts/read.tree.pl, and its output file scripts/read.tree.log; this program demonstrates the output produced by various methods

    • Fix the faulty syntax I had used in Build.PL to identify the github repo

    • Delete and re-create github repo after 'git push' failed to upload the new version

    • Add LICENSE file to MANIFEST
