Fedora Project
Updated perl-IO-AIO to 4.5 in Rawhide:
aio_mtouch: touch all pages as requested, not just the first page
New function: IO::AIO::mremap - linux-specific mremap, with constants MREMAP_MAYMOVE and MREMAP_FIXED
Add O_ACCMODE
Add (undocumented) MSG_CMSG_CLOEXEC and SOCK_CLOEXEC constants
Updated perl-Log-Dispatch-FileRotate to 1.36 in Rawhide:
If the "permissions" parameter is set, use the same permissions for the lock file that the log file will use (GH#21)
Updated perl-Params-ValidationCompiler to 0.30 in Rawhide:
Added a new option for named params, "return_object", which causes the validation sub to return an object with methods for each param rather than a hashref; this is a great way to avoid typos in hash keys (idea shamelessly stolen from Toby Inkster's Type::Params module)
- Tweaked the POD formatting so that the table of contents generated by MetaCPAN is more useful
Optionally use Class::XSAccessor
Updated perl-Path-Tiny to 0.108 in Rawhide:
Fixed a bug where failure to load optional modules would trigger an external $SIG{__DIE__} handler

Type::Params now has 'compile_named_oo'
Type::Params supports defaults for missing parameters

Thursday 2nd August 2018
Fedora Project

Monday 13th August 2018
Fedora Project
Updated perl-IO-AIO to 4.52 in Rawhide:

Provide nanosecond-accuracy stat time accessors for both perl and IO::AIO stat functions
Removed non-portable C++ functions from eio.c

Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 2.059 in Rawhide git, but didn't try to build it because the test suite fails with OpenSSL 1.1.1
Local Packages

Fix memory leak when CRLs are used (CPAN RT#125867)
Fix memory leak when using stop_SSL and threads (https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=125867#txn-1797132)
Updated perl-Net-SSLeay (1.85) to move retry from Net::SSLeay::{read,write}() to Net::SSLea::ssl_{read,write}_all() (CPAN RT#125218) and to drop OpenSSL 1.1.1 patches from everywhere but Rawhide as they break the IO::Socket::SSL test suite in older releases

Friday 17th August 2018
Fedora Project
Updated geoipupdate to 3.1.0 in F-29 and Rawhide:
- Changes in version 3.0.0:
Breaking Change: When downloading the free databases without a MaxMind account, you must either not have 'AccountID', 'UserId', or 'LicenseKey' set in your configuration file or they must be set to the zero values previously recommended in our documentation; any other value will cause an authorization error
Breaking Change: The configuration options 'Protocol', 'SkipPeerVerification', and SkipHostnameVerification are no longer supported; if they are present in the configuration file, they will be ignored - HTTPS with peer and hostname verification will be used on all requests
Breaking Change: The configuration file must have the 'AccountID' or the deprecated 'UserId' when downloading a paid database; previously, when downloading the GeoIP Legacy Country database, you were able to only provide the 'LicenseKey'
Important: 'geoipupdate-pureperl.pl' has been removed and will no longer be distributed with 'geoipupdate'; this Perl script had known issues and did not have feature parity with the C implementation
- This program no longer uses the following endpoints:
'/app/update_getipaddr', '/app/update', and '/app/update_secure'; '/geoip/databases/{edition_id}/update' is now used instead
Fixed issue in 'gu_strnlen()' dereferencing a pointer before checking that it was in array bounds
We now update the default GeoIP.conf during installation so that directory paths match build parameters; previously this config always said the data directory was under /usr/local/share, which was not always accurate
Improve the error checking and display the underlying reason for the error when possible (GH#82, GH#84)
Document that the 'LockFile' is not removed from the filesystem after a successful exit from the program (GH#79)
- Make default configuration directory agree with default installation directory
- Changes in version 3.0.1:
- When there were no updates available, 3.0.0 incorrectly returned an exit code of 1 instead of 0; this release reverts to the pre-3.0.0 behaviour, returning an exit code of 0 in this case
- Changes in version 3.1.0:
This version restores the ability to use the 'AccountID'/'UserId' 999999 along with an all-zero license key when downloading free databases; however, the use of this combination is not recommended and may break in future versions
When printing verbose output, only the first four characters of the 'LicenseKey' will now be displayed
Local Packages
Updated geoipupdate to 3.1.0 as per the Fedora version
Updated perl-Coro to 6.52:
libcoro update: Allow sharing of coro threads using the pthreads backend among different pthreads, as is required by Coro::Multicore
Always allow ->call and ->eval when the coro is the current coroutine; this makes it possible, among other things, to call these on $Coro::main
- Minor code clean-ups
Updated perl-Net-SSLeay (1.85) to revert retry in Net::SSLeay::write_partial() (Bug #1614884, CPAN RT#125218) and to include OpenSSL 1.1.1 patches unconditionally again

Updated perl-IO-AIO to 4.6 in F-29 and Rawhide:
Add st_btime, st_btimesec, st_btimensec and st_gen accessors, mostly for BSDs that expose birthtime and st_gen members (netbsd, freebsd but only st_gen on openbsd because they compiled their perl without support for birthtimes)
Fix madvise and munlock to properly support negative offsets
Allocate fd for the aio_close at boot time, to guarantee it working later, rather than calling abort when it fails; this also avoids close-on-exec race issues after module load
#undef utime on win32, which might help some reports of utime hangs
- Minor documentation improvements
- Minor configure clean-ups
Use $Config{perllibs} instead of libs for configure, which might help people who didn't install all perl dependencies (might break things as well)
Updated perl-MCE to 1.837 in F-29 and Rawhide:
Seeds the Math::Random::MT::Auto generator automatically when present for non-threads, similarly to Math::Random and Math::Prime::Util, to avoid child processes sharing the same seed value as the parent and each other; the new seed is computed using the current seed
Updated perl-MCE-Shared to 1.839 in F-29 and Rawhide:
Seeds the Math::Random::MT::Auto generator automatically when present in MCE::Hobo, similarly to Math::Random and Math::Prime::Util, to avoid child processes sharing the same seed value as the parent and each other; the new seed is computed using the current seed
