Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Data-Alias to 1.20 in F-23 and Rawhide:

    • Avoid some C undefined behaviour from unsequenced side effects that in practice bit when using a newer gcc (4.9 rather than 4.7) with the parser token stack change in Perl 5.21.9

    • Add doc note advising users to prefer the core aliasing facility on Perl 5.22

  • This is the first Data-Alias release that has built successfully on F-23/Rawhide with Perl 5.22, so had to be un-retired as F-23 was going to be released without a perl-Data-Alias package

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-BSD-Resource to 1.2908:

    • Add more RLIMIT_ values from various systems, especially from Linux 2.6: RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE, RLIMIT_NICE, RLIMIT_NPTS, RLIMIT_PTHREAD, RLIMIT_RTPRIO, RLIMIT_RTTIME, RLIMIT_SBSIZE, RLIMIT_SIGPENDING, RLIMIT_SWAP

    • Add PRIO_THREAD, if available

  • Updated perl-Data-Alias to 1.20 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Data-Visitor (0.30) to reinstate use of Data::Alias on all builds

  • Updated perl-DateTime-TimeZone to 1.94:

    • This release is based on version 2015g of the Olson database
    • Contemporary changes for Turkey, Norfolk, Fiji, and Fort Nelson
