--- Comment #5 from Reini Urban <rurban@xxxxxxxx> ---
Please see https://github.com/rurban/yaml-libyaml-pm/issues/1 which answers
your questions.

My CPAN uploads are entirely unauthorized. Please remove them from Fedora.

But they should be.
The Pegex tests are broken, due to the broken interpretation of the YAML specs,
which caused the problems with the various perl YAML libraries over the years.
See the links.
So in the end Pegex and YAML have to change it's tests to liberate it's
whitespace rules, amongst other bugs and inconsistencies.

But this will need a while. I started fixing it in March 2016, and got no
feedback so far. Only the cperl toolchain is fixed, but this is a perl5 fork
nobody is distributing. And the upstream maintainers are silent.
