Name : perl Product : Fedora 10 Version : 5.10.0 Release : 51.fc10 URL : http://www.perl.org/ Summary : Practical Extraction and Report 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. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Fix issues with POSIX module -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Fri Nov 28 2008 Tom "spot" Callaway <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 4:5.10.0-51 - to fix Fedora bz 473223, which is really perl bug #54186 (http://rt.perl.org/rt3//Public/Bug/Display.html?id=54186) we apply Changes 33640, 33881, 33896, 33897 * Mon Nov 24 2008 Marcela Mašláňová <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> - 4:5.10.0-50 - change summary according to RFC fix summary discussion at fedora-devel :) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References: [ 1 ] Bug #473223 - duplicate definition between POSIX and Fcntl https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=473223 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
