Fedora Project

  • Submitted a review request for a perl-Data-Binary (0.01) package, which was kindly reviewed and approved by Jitka Plesnikova

  • Built perl-Data-Binary (0.01) for F-28, F-29, Rawhide and EPEL-7

  • Updated perl-Module-CPANTS-Analyse to 0.99 in Rawhide:

    • Module::CPANTS::Kwalitee now uses Module::Find to find Kwalitee modules (instead of Module::Pluggable, which unconditionally spits a deprecation warning); you usually don't need to care but if you have your custom Kwalitee plugin loader (such as Module::CPANTS::SiteKwalitee), you need to change it - sorry for the inconvenience

    • Allow dash and dot in script name in the NAME section for non-pm, non-pod files

    • Added has_meta_json metric (CPAN RT#107885)

    • Accept a few more README extensions

    • Accept two more Moose modules as strict equivalents

    • Various micro optimization for performance
    • Dropped a few dependencies
    • Various documentation updates
    • Not to check use_strict/use_warnings for Perl 6 modules in a Perl 5 distribution

    • Worked around a File::Find::Object issue

    • Fixed dynamic_config handling

    • Improved LICENSE file detection (CPAN RT#114247)

    • Skip everything in MANIFEST.SKIP while testing symlinks (GH#33)

Local Packages

  • New package perl-Data-Binary (0.01)

  • Updated dovecot (2.3.4) to build with libsodium support from Fedora 25 and EL-7 onwards

  • Updated java-1.8.0-oracle to Hava SE 8 Update 202 (bugfix and security update)

  • Updated perl-Module-CPANTS-Analyse to 0.99 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated ppp (2.4.7) to fix some issues found by coverity scan

  • Rebuilt proftpd (1.3.6) and sendmail for libcrypt.so.2 in Rawhide (Bug #1666033)
