Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Data-Alias to 1.21

    • Update for context stack changes in Perl 5.23.8
    • Update to accommodate PERL_OP_PARENT builds of Perl 5.21.11 or later (which is the default from Perl 5.25.1)

    • Update for removal of LEX_KNOWNEXT in Perl 5.25.1

    • Update test suite to not rely on . in @INC, which is no longer necessarily there from Perl 5.25.7

    • Use cleaner wrap_op_checker() API to control op checking

  • Note that the module still doesn't work with dtrace-enabled Perls ≥ 5.24 such as that in Fedora, and so isn't available after Fedora 24

  • Updated sendmail (8.15.2) to drop tcp_wrappers support from F-28 onwards (Bug #1518782) and to build with TLS EC support from EL-7, F-23 onwards
