Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-indirect to 0.34 in F-22 and Rawhide:

    • The new environment variable to enable thread tests on older perls is PERL_FORCE_TEST_THREADS; note that this variable should only be turned on by authors

    • Add link in documentation to historical tchrist post (CPAN RT#100068)

    • Fix segfaults when the module is loaded by several threads (or Windows emulated processes) ran in parallel
    • Update the Windows ActivePerl + gcc 3.4 workaround for ExtUtils::MakeMaker version 7.04

    • Be really compatible with the optional OP_PARENT feature

    • Test: $ENV{$Config{ldlibpthname}} is now preserved on all platforms, which will address failures of t/41-threads-teardown.t and t/50-external.t with unusual compilers (like icc) that link all their compiled objects to their own libraries

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.039:

    • Recognize nested subscripts in interpolation
    • Add \b{g} (= \b{gcb})
