Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-JSON-MaybeXS to 1.004001 in Rawhide:

    • Document when is_bool became available
    • Now favouring Cpanel::JSON::XS over JSON::XS in more situations (the former is always added to prereqs when a compiler is available, although JSON::XS is still used at runtime if new enough and Cpanel::JSON::XS is not installed); this makes boolean handling more predictable and consistent

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-JSON-MaybeXS to 1.004001 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Type-Tiny to 1.010002:

    • Better bareword handling on Perl < 5.14 (CPAN RT#132455)

    • If Scalar::Util was below 1.18, the LaxNum type from Types::Standard would accept blobs as being numbers; this is now fixed (CPAN RT#132426)
