Test2-based Test-Simple
Upstream has now released a Test2-based version of Test-Simple as a stable release, bundling Test2. I have a package update ready to go for Rawhide (only) but I'm holding off probably until Monday morning to see if upstream invokes a contingency plan (see http://blogs.perl.org/users/chad_exodist_granum/2016/05/test2test-simple-released.html) in the event of severe problems with this major refactoring of a module in very widespread use. The new package will obsolete/provide the existing perl-Test2 package. Transition information can be found at: https://metacpan.org/pod/release/EXODIST/Test-Simple-1.302015/lib/Test2/Transition.pod Paul. -- Fedora Extras Perl SIG http://www.fedoraproject.org/wiki/Extras/SIGs/Perl perl-devel mailing list perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org http://lists.fedoraproject.org/admin/lists/perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
