Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Params-ValidationCompiler to 0.16 in Rawhide:

    • Previously, using a default with a positional parameter would result in an error when compiling the validator subroutine; defaults now work with positional parameters (GH#5)

    • Moose and Specio types (and coercions) that provide variables to close over when being inlined did not always compile properly; most notably, this was not being handled at all for Moose types, and not completely handled for Specio coercions

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Params-ValidationCompiler to 0.16 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Term-ReadLine-Gnu to 1.35:

    • readline-7.0 support:

      • New functions: rl_clear_visible_line, rl_tty_set_echoing, rl_pending_signal

      • New variable: rl_persistent_signal_handlers

    • Gnu.xs: Fix a bug of rl_readline_state variable manifesting on a big-endian, sizeof(int)==4, and sizeof(long)==8 platform with the GNU Readline Library 7.0 (CPAN RT#118371)
