Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-JSON-PP to 4.04 in Rawhide:

    • Document indent_length option (GH#48)

  • Updated python-paramiko to 2.6.0 in Rawhide:

    • Add a new keyword argument to 'SSHClient.connect' and '~paramiko.transport.Transport', 'disabled_algorithms', which allows selectively disabling one or more kex/key/cipher/etc. algorithms; this can be useful when disabling algorithms your target server (or client) does not support cleanly, or to work around unpatched bugs in Paramiko's own implementation thereof (GH#1463)

    • Tweak many exception classes so their string representations are more human-friendly; this also includes incidental changes to some 'super()' calls (GH#1440, GH#1460)

    • Add backwards-compatible support for the 'gssapi' GSSAPI library, as the previous back-end ('python-gssapi') has become defunct (GH#584, GH#1166, GH#1311)

    • 'SSHClient.exec_command' now returns a new subclass, '~paramiko.channel.ChannelStdinFile', rather than a naïve '~paramiko.channel.ChannelFile' object for its 'stdin' value, which fixes issues such as hangs when running remote commands that read from stdin (GH#322)

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-JSON-PP to 4.04 as per the Fedora version
