--------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Test Update Notification FEDORA-2006-146 2006-03-13 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Product : Fedora Core 4 Name : perl Version : 5.8.6 Release : 24 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. --------------------------------------------------------------------- * Fri Mar 3 2006 Jason Vas Dias <jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx> - 3:5.8.6-24 - fix bug 185242: restore default minimum ioctl 3rd arg length of 256 - fix bug 84671: cleanup NDBM removal; restore DBM_Filter* . * Thu Feb 2 2006 Jason Vas Dias <jvdias@xxxxxxxxxx> - 3:5.8.6-24 - fix bug 178343: include cpp built-in macros in $Config{cppsymbols} --------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be downloaded from: http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/updates/testing/4/ a5305044cf137f0ecac6ada8307cfe72cca7ce14 SRPMS/perl-5.8.6-24.src.rpm cd4bc7ce4a8b5fdb329a040f6b6ed94860cc2772 ppc/perl-5.8.6-24.ppc.rpm 509a1c2b8a5c5b4d797cce1799f1bcfc5bfa5797 ppc/perl-suidperl-5.8.6-24.ppc.rpm d6428964bf6fa728480e6cf59a1aef58fb1a495f ppc/debug/perl-debuginfo-5.8.6-24.ppc.rpm 79819cbe0b6e85228847a73994bcd19bbfa05798 x86_64/perl-5.8.6-24.x86_64.rpm 5af2914c687681a7ccb0adca320658bf484aff27 x86_64/perl-suidperl-5.8.6-24.x86_64.rpm 35af107bd555f93934245dd530b877be48918d08 x86_64/debug/perl-debuginfo-5.8.6-24.x86_64.rpm d111c5eafc8b94fab85027f3074cddac86e421ed i386/perl-5.8.6-24.i386.rpm 7417b31714ea6e45b793121187177771b368f49e i386/perl-suidperl-5.8.6-24.i386.rpm 9e75afb17eac1012a622def9c5223b545cb9be61 i386/debug/perl-debuginfo-5.8.6-24.i386.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.
