Fedora Project

  • Cleaned up and rebuilt perl-namespace-clean (0.27) in Rawhide

Local Packages

  • Rebuilt check (0.12.0), curl (7.58.0) and libxml2 (2.9.7) for the Fedora_28_Mass_Rebuild

  • Updated gnome-libs (1.4.2), libglade (0.17), libgpg-error (1.27), libxslt (1.1.30) and xz (5.2.3) to drop ldconfig scriptlets (replaced by RPM File Triggers) from Fedora 28 onwards

  • Updated perl-Net-DNS to 1.15:

    • GOST R 34.11-94 hash algorithm: end of life 1st Jan 2018 per sunset clause in successor standard GOST R 34.11-2012; Digest::GOST removed from the recommended module metadata, but will still be used if available

  • Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.055:

    • Tokenizer method prior() is now fatal; this was documented as package-private, but as it was documented, I am putting it through a deprecation cycle anyway - six months from now it will be removed

    • Add Script_Run classes as subclasses to their superclass docs; this was missed in the last update
