Fedora Project

• Updated perl-B-Hooks-EndOfScope to 0.20 in F-24 and Rawhide:

  • Remove unnecessary and erroneous extra crud in inc/

• Updated perl-Readonly to 2.04 in F-24 and Rawhide:

  • Create mutable clones of readonly structures with Readonly::Clone (GH#13)

  • Minor typo fix (GH#21)

  • Rewording some documentation

  • No longer require an explicit version of perl in META.json or cpanfile

  • Quiet compile time warnings about function prototypes and vars being used only once

Local Packages

• Updated perl-B-Hooks-EndOfScope to 0.20 as per the Fedora version

• Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.050:

  • Parse bracketed substitution with embedded comment; this is something like s{foo}\n#{bar}\n{baz}, which is equivalent to s/foo/baz/

  • We now recognize postfix dereferences by default, since Perl does beginning with 5.24; in other words, default new() argument 'postderef' to true

  • Unterminated substitutions (i.e. 's//') should no longer cause an exception; instead, they parse as an unknown token

• Updated perl-Readonly to 2.04 as per the Fedora version
