Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-IO-AIO to 4.76 in Rawhide:

    • Add autoconf test for siginfo_t, which is, of course, not available on Windows

    • Disable syscalls on Solaris, as perl seems to provide an incompatible syscall prototype that clashes with sys/syscall.h

    • Add MAP_FIXED_NOREPLACE, MAP_SHARED_VALIDATE, MAP_SYNC and MAP_UNINITIALIZED

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-Archive-Tar to 2.40:

    • Generalize for EBCDIC

    • Update GitHub workflow with deprecated add-path

  • Updated perl-IO-AIO to 4.76 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Test-NoWarnings to 1.06:

    • Clarify docs around tests without a plan
    • Documentation clean-ups and typo fixes
    • Minor code clean-ups

    • use warnings in tests

    • Skip fork test if perl can't fork

    • Note conflicts with Carp::Always in documentation

    • Made had_no_warnings turn off the checking at END time for use with done_testing based tests with no test count; also added docs

  • Rebuilt libssh2 (1.9.0), perl-Specio (0.47) and python-passlib (1.7.4) for the Fedora_35_Mass_Rebuild
