--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2004-085 2004-03-02 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Name : perl Version : 5.8.3 Release : 10 Summary : The Perl programming language. Description : Perl is a high-level programming language with roots in C, sed, awk and shell scripting. Perl is good at handling processes and files, and is especially good at handling text. Perl's hallmarks are practicality and efficiency. While it is used to do a lot of different things, Perl's most common applications are system administration utilities and web programming. A large proportion of the CGI scripts on the web are written in Perl. You need the perl package installed on your system so that your system can handle Perl scripts. Install this package if you want to program in Perl or enable your system to handle Perl scripts. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Wed Feb 25 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-10 - add perl(:MODULE_COMPAT_*) provides; make sure all of @INC is owned by perl package * Thu Feb 19 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-8 - rebuild * Thu Feb 19 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-7.9.rhl9 - rebuild * Thu Feb 19 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-7.10.fc1 - rebuild * Sun Feb 15 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-6 - fix very broken @INC calculations with slightly less broken @INC calculations (not perfectly handled but the result is correct) - fix broken -Dsitearch declaration * Fri Feb 13 2004 Elliot Lee <sopwith@xxxxxxxxxx> - rebuilt * Wed Jan 28 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-5 - update incpush patch to better handle multilib * Fri Jan 23 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-2 - add a dependency filter on perl(Tie::RangeHash) * Thu Jan 22 2004 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.3-7 - upgrade to 5.8.3 * Mon Dec 15 2003 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.2-7 - fix @INC so that all dirs go into it, not just those that exist at buildtime in the build system * Sat Dec 13 2003 Jeff Johnson <jbj@xxxxxxx> 3:5.8.2-4 - rebuild against db-4.2.52. * Sun Dec 07 2003 Ville Skyttà <ville.skytta at iki.fi> - 3:5.8.2-3 - Own site and vendor auto directories (#73970). * Wed Dec 03 2003 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.2-2 - upgrade to 5.8.2 * Fri Oct 31 2003 Chip Turner <cturner@xxxxxxxxxx> 3:5.8.1-92 - remove Vendor and Distribution macros from specfile (#108567) --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/1/ d0b8fdb32810c04893c1e9dd8be9c55c SRPMS/perl-5.8.3-10.src.rpm f7c86f5631a77a75903104b2c674b106 i386/perl-5.8.3-10.i386.rpm c34653f016895d26ae794b7d53d3304d i386/perl-suidperl-5.8.3-10.i386.rpm ba0806fc54636330ef923dc3752bd30e i386/debug/perl-debuginfo-5.8.3-10.i386.rpm This update can also be installed with the Update Agent; you can launch the Update Agent with the 'up2date' command. --------------------------------------------------------------------- -- Chip Turner cturner@xxxxxxxxxx Red Hat, Inc.
