Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Log-Dispatch-FileRotate to 1.35 in F-28 and Rawhide:

    • Fix lockfile race condition test in Strawberry Perl
    • Skip file open failure test on Cygwin - chmod behaviour varies on Cygwin

    • Minor test clean-ups
    • Fix 'Use of "localtime" without parentheses# warning on older Perls
    • Migrate issues/bug tracking from rt.cpan.org to GitHub issues

  • Updated perl-Test-Simple to 1.302130 in F-28 and Rawhide:

    • Make hubs tag events with a new facet

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-PPIx-Regexp to 0.056:

    • Support removal of un-escaped literal left curlys after left parens, which was deprecated in 5.27.8; no actual change in output yet, since deprecation is not tracked, but the perl_version_removed() logic is there

    • Add next_element() and kin; these are analogous to next_sibling() and kin, but will cross over from content proper into structure (beginning and end delimiters, etc.) and vice versa

    • Correct requirements_for_perl() for impossible regular expression; it now returns '! $]' when the components of the regexp are valid, but none are valid under any specific version of Perl - it used to think all Perls were OK when this happened

    • Add the alpha_assertions introduced in 5.27.9

    • Handle 5.27.9's change from +script_run to *script_run, and support *sr as a synonym

  • Updated perl-Test-Simple to 1.302130 as per the Fedora version
