Tuesday 1st March 2016
Fedora Project
Updated perl-DateTime to 1.24 in F-24 and Rawhide:
The last release partially broke $dt->time; if you passed a value to use as unit separator, it was ignored (CPAN RT#112585)
Updated perl-Tree-DAG_Node to 1.29 in F-24 and Rawhide:
- No code changes
Rework Makefile.PL so File::Spec, File::Temp and Test::More are in TEST_REQUIRES (CPAN RT#112568)
Expand the SYNOPSIS
Update MANIFEST.SKIP to include .gitignore
Test::Pod is only a developer dependency
Updated perltidy to 20160302 in F-24 and Rawhide:
Corrected a minor problem in which an unwanted newline was placed before the closing brace of an anonymous sub with a signature, if it was in a list (CPAN RT#112534)
Corrected a minor problem in which occasional extra indentation was given to the closing brace of an anonymous sub in a list when the -lp parameter was set
Local Packages
Updated perl-DateTime to 1.24 as per the Fedora version
Updated perl-Moo to 2.001000:
- Documentation:
Added documentation for has's ability to accept an arrayref of attribute names to create with the same options
Removed mention that we may not call BUILDARGS, since that behavior was removed in 2.000002
Reorganized documentation of class methods to separate those provided as a public API (new/does/meta) from those used by Moo in the object lifecycle (BUILDARGS/FOREIGNBUILDARGS/BUILD/DEMOLISH)
- Updated documentation of most class methods for clarity
Updated BUILDARGS documentation to show an around rather than just overriding
Added examples to FOREIGNBUILDARGS and BUILD
Added explicit documentation for DOES and meta methods
- Fixes:
Fixed grammar in error message when @ISA is changed unexpectedly before a constructor is fully generated
Fixed Moo classes and Sub::Quote subs in packages that are nearly 252 characters long
Fixed Sub::Defer::undefer_package emitting warnings
- Fixed detection of constructors that have already been inlined
- Performance:
- The generated code in constructors and setters has had a number of microoptimizations applied
Deferred subs (and quoted subs like some accessors) in roles will be undeferred before copying them to classes; this prevents the need for a goto on every call, which would slow down the subs
Fixed Moose inflation code resulting in constructors with deferred wrappers
- Other:
Recommend Sub::Name 0.08, which fixes a memory leak
The values given to BUILD subs will be the original values passed to new, rather than after coercions have been applied; this brings the behavior in line with Moose
Updated perl-Perl-Tidy to 20160302 as per the Fedora perltidy package
Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.048:
Add option 'strict', like 'use re "strict"'
In the presence of strict(), I opted to set perl_version_introduced to the version of Perl where the construct became an error
Parse '\N{}' as no-op
The previous parse was a character class ('\N') followed by two literals ('{' and '}'), but perl5238delta said that it had been ignored up to that time; starting with 5.23.8 it is an error if 'use re strict' is in effect
Quash 'NOT a POSIX class ...' warning under 5.23.8
Updated perl-Term-ReadLine-Gnu to 1.29:
Pop the stdio PerlIO layer only when utf8 layer is included for remote debugging (CPAN RT#110121)
Call utf8::decode() for a UTF8-enabled input filehandle (CPAN RT#104239)
Call newTTY() any time to set filehandles
Make use of 'our' instead of 'use vars'
- Add tests for UTF-8 handling
Pass _rl_store_iostream 'FILE *' instead of 'PerlIO *'
Remove T_STDIO definition from typemap
- Requires 5.8.1
Updated perl-Tree-DAG_Node to 1.29 as per the Fedora version
Wednesday 2nd March 2016
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS to 3.0213 in F-24 and Rawhide:
Silence JSON::PP::Boolean redefine warnings (GH#60)
Updated perl-Path-Tiny to 0.082 in F-24 and Rawhide:
The relative() method no longer uses File::Spec's buggy rel2abs method; the new Path::Tiny algorithm should be comparable and passes File::Spec rel2abs test cases, except that it correctly accounts for symlinks
Added 'edit' and 'edit_lines' plus _utf8 and _raw variants; this is similar to perl's -i flag (though without backups)
Fixed lines_utf8() with chomping for repeated empty lines
Fixed lines_utf8+chomp and relative() bugs on Windows
- Documented that subclassing is not supported
Local Packages
Updated perl-File-Which to 1.20:
Fix bug where executable named "0" would not be found (GH#7)
Updated perl-Path-Tiny to 0.082 as per the Fedora version; as the dependency on a recent File::Spec has now gone, the oldest distribution I can build this for is now F-11 rather than F-19, the limiting factor now being the version requirements for File::Path and File::Temp
Updated perl-Term-ReadLine-Gnu to 1.30:
t/utf8_binary.t: Add a fix to handle escape sequences that rl_initialize may output
Updated perl-File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir (1.000008), perl-Path-IsDev (1.001002), perl-Path-FindDev (0.5.2) and perl-Pod-Spell (1.19) to add support for old distributions back to F-11 now that their dependency Path::Tiny does

Updated perl-File-Which to 1.21:
- Workaround for nutty cygwin filesystem rules
Updated perl-Test-Synopsis to 0.15 as per the Fedora version

Local Packages
Updated libssh2 (1.7.0) to move the large NEWS file to the libssh2-docs package
Updated perl-Term-ReadLine-Gnu to 1.31:
t/utf8_binary.t, t/utf_text.t: skip on non UTF-8 environment
t/readline.t: skip the cursor move test for an active CPAN tester's environment
Updated perl-version to 0.9915:
Clarify details of Lyon Compromise: https://gist.github.com/dagolden/9559280
- Version comparison should be done irrespective of the presence of underscores in the string used to initialize the version object
Underscore should no longer be used as a tuple separator in vstrings or vstring-like strings; vstrings are converted to tuples by splitting into characters (not bytes) and converting to codepoints; any elements after the first must be in the range 0-999
numify/normal should produce a standardized string representation without underscores
stringify should produce the best possible representation of the value used to initialize the version object; it should include underscores only if the initializing value was a non-vstring string
- Floating point numbers used as initializers are converted to a decimal string form at the precision limit of the architecture; people will be warned about this in the documentation
Monday 7th March 2016
Fedora Project
Updated perl-DateTime to 1.25 in F-24 and Rawhide:
DateTime->from_object would die if given a DateTime::Infinite object; now it returns another DateTime::Infinite object (CPAN RT#112712)

Fix CPAN RT#108908: Installing recent version gets shadowed by old version; warnings added to Makefile.PL and t/00-version.t
Fix CPAN RT#66900: Net::DNS::Async unable to retry truncated UDP using TCP because of limitations in Net::DNS
I disabled the online tests as they appear to be broken
Wednesday 9th March 2016
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Apache-Session-Browseable to 1.2 in F-24 and Rawhide:
- Replace MD5 by SHA256
- Replace serialization by JSON
Local Packages
Updated perl-MCE to 1.700:
Bug Fixes
- Fixed race condition on Windows for non-threaded workers
Updated MCE Models to not fail when running inside an eval statement; this addresses CPAN RT#105557 and CPAN RT#105559
Added new MCE option loop_timeout to prevent the MCE Manager process from hanging perpetually; the manager process wrongly assumes a worker is still running when the worker died in an uncontrollable manner (CPAN RT#111780)
Enhancements
Perl 5.10.1 or later is required to run MCE 1.7; Perl < 5.10.1 lacks 'overloading.pm'
Added code in MCE::Grep's documentation for parsing huge files
Added support for running MCE with Perl under MobaXterm on Windows
MCE/examples and MCE/images are no longer included with the distribution: these are maintained separately at https://github.com/marioroy/mce-examples and https://github.com/marioroy/mce-assets respectively
MCE performs channel locking via a pipe or socket depending on platform; previously, locking was through file locking using flock - this resolves the slow locking performance on Cygwin
- Optimized signal handling including improved support on Windows
Reduced overhead during spawning and job submissions on Windows and Cygwin; this enables IPC to complete up to 20x faster, thus benefiting Monte-Carlo simulations; e.g. calling ->run(0) or ->process(...) repeatedly
The MCE::Flow and MCE::Step Models can take an anonymous array for specifying use_threads uniquely for sub-tasks
New Features
Added MCE::Hobo for running code asynchronously, which provides async/join functionality for processes similarly to async/join in threads; it includes ->is_joinable, ->is_running, ->join, ->kill, ->list, ->waitall, ->waitone, and other methods not mentioned here
Added MCE::Shared for sharing objects/data between threads/processes
Added MCE::Shared::{ Array, Handle, Hash, Ordhash, and Scalar }
Added MCE::Shared::{ Condvar, Minidb, Queue, and Sequence }
Added MCE::Shared::{ Server }
Added methods ->await, ->enq, and ->enqp to MCE::Step
Added method ->await to MCE::Queue
Added option max_retries => N for retrying a failed chunk from a worker dying while processing input data or sequence of numbers
Added option posix_exit => 1 to avoid END and destructor processing; this is necessary for running with Tk and child processes or with use_threads => 0
Seeds the Math::Random generator automatically when present for non-threads to avoid child processes sharing the same seed value as the parent and each other; the new seed is computed using the current seed, thus it's okay to set the seed at the application level for predictable results
Thursday 10th March 2016

"Incorrect string value" reported by mod_sql_mysql for some UTF8 characters (upstream bug 4191)
SSH rekey failed when using RSA host key smaller than 2048 bits (upstream bug 4097)
MLSD/MLST fact type "cdir" is incorrectly used for the current working directory (upstream bug 4198)
HiddenStores temporary files not removed when exceeding quota using SCP (upstream bug 4201)
MLSD lines not properly terminated with CRLF (upstream bug 4202)
Zero-length memory allocation possible, with undefined results (upstream bug 4209)

Permissions on files uploaded via STOU did not honor configured Umask (upstream bug 4223)
Support SFTP clients that send multiple INIT requests (upstream bug 4227)

Updated dovecot:
Updated dovecot to 2.2.23:
Various fixes to doveadm; in particular, running commands via doveadm-server was broken
director: Fixed user weakness getting stuck in some situations
director: Fixed a situation where directors keep re-sending different states to each other and never becoming synced
director: Fixed assert-crash related to a slow "user killed" reply
Fixed assert-crash related to istream-concat, which could have been triggered at least by a Sieve script
Updated pigeonhole to 0.4.13:
redirect action: Added the list-id header to the duplicate ID for mail loop prevention; this means that the message sent directly to the user and the message coming through the mailing list itself are treated as different messages by the loop detection of the redirect command, even though their Message-ID may be identical
Changed the Sieve number type to uint64_t, which means that Sieve numbers can now technically range up to 2^64; some other Sieve implementation allowed this, making this change necessary for successful migration
Implemented the sieve_implicit_extensions setting; the extensions listed in this setting do not need to be enabled explicitly using the Sieve "require" command (this behavior directly violates the standard, but can be necessary for compatibility with some existing implementations of Sieve - do not use this setting unless you really need to!)
redirect action: Made mail loop detection more robust by forcibly adding a Message-ID header if it is missing
Prevent logging a useless "script not found" error message for LDAP scripts for which the entry exists but no attribute containing a script; this is not necessarily an error
extprograms plugin: Changed the communication channel between parent and child process for a directly forked program from a socketpair to a double pipe; Linux does not support /dev/stdin, /dev/stdout and friends for sockets, which for some shell program authors may be confusing, so that is why it is changed - when using the script service, these device nodes are still not usable though
