Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.88 in Rawhide:

  • Summary of major changes since version 1.85

    • Mike McCauley has stepped down as maintainer: the new maintainers are Chris Novakovic, Heikki Vatiainen and Tuure Vartiainen

    • The source code has moved from the now-defunct Debian Subversion server (alioth.debian.org) to GitHub

    • Net-SSLeay is provided under the terms of the Artistic License 2.0; this has been the case since version 1.66, but references to other licenses remained in the source code, causing ambiguity

    • Perl 5.8.1 or newer is now required to use Net-SSLeay; this has already been the case for some time in practice, as the test suite hasn't fully passed on Perl 5.6 for several years

    • Much-improved compatibility with OpenSSL 1.1.1, and improved support for TLS 1.3

    • Fixed a long-standing bug in cb_data_advanced_put() that caused memory leaks when callbacks were frequently added and removed

    • Support in the test suite for "hardened" OpenSSL configurations that set a default security level of 2 or higher (e.g., in the OpenSSL packages that ship with recent versions of Debian, Fedora and Ubuntu)

  • Updated perl-YAML to 1.29 in Rawhide:

    • Fix regex for alias to match the one for anchors (GH#214)

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.88 as per the Fedora version
