==== apparmor ====
Subpackages: apparmor-abstractions apparmor-docs apparmor-parser apparmor-parser-lang apparmor-profiles apparmor-utils apparmor-utils-lang pam_apparmor pam_apparmor-32bit perl-apparmor python3-apparmor
- update to AppArmor 2.12
- preserve errno across aa_*_unref() functions
- see https://gitlab.com/apparmor/apparmor/wikis/Release_Notes_2.12
for the detailed upstream changelog
- no longer package static libapparmor.a
- update to AppArmor 2.11.95 aka 2.12 beta1
- no changes in libapparmor
- see http://wiki.apparmor.net/index.php/ReleaseNotes_2_11_95
for the detailed upstream changelog
- update to AppArmor 2.11.1
- mostly test-related changes in libapparmor
- see http://wiki.apparmor.net/index.php/ReleaseNotes_2_11_1 for
upstream changelog
- Fix RPM groups
- split libapparmor into separate spec to get rid of build loop
involving mariadb, systemd, apparmor, libapr and mariadb again
(see the discussion in SR 448871 for details)
- libapparmor.spec is based on the AppArmor 2.11 apparmor.spec, but
with minimum BuildRequires
==== cups-filters ====
Version update (1.17.6 -> 1.19.0)
- Update to 1.19.0:
* See the detailed stuff in NEWS file
* New filters and poppler compatibility as always
- Do not require python-cups but rather python3-cups in order to
allow build on python2 less system
- Explicitly enable ijs and opvp filters
==== dar ====
Version update (2.5.8 -> 2.5.14)
Subpackages: dar-lang libdar5000
- fix build for Factory
- update to version 2.5.14
(relevant parts from upstream)
- made libgcrypt built-in memory guard be initialized before obtaining
ligcrypt version, to respect libgcrypt usage (but no problem was seen
nor reported about this inconsistency)
- fixed syntax error in XML listing output (EA_entry and Attributes
tags)
- fixed bugs in dar_split: cygwin support, filedescriptors were not
explicitly closed at end of execution, allocating buffer on heap
rather than in the stack for better size flexibility, avoiding buffer
size to be greater than SSIZE_MAX.
- added -s option to dar_split in order to disable the by default SYNC
write that was used and which caused poor performance. To keep the
same behavior as the older dar_split (and its poor performances) you
need now using -s option.
- dar_split enhancement: added call to syncfs before closing the file
descriptor in split_output mode
- fixed bug in dar_split that was did not lead dar_split to completely
fulfill an device before asking for user to change the media when
used in split_output mode, this was sometimes leading dar reporting
file as corrupted at dar_split at media boundary.
- added feature in dar_split to show the amount of data written since
the last media change
- added -az option to automatically nullify negative dates returned from
the system in the archive under creation (filesystem is not modified)
- included the birthtime (HFS FSA) into the negative dates handling
- modified behavior: dar now fails upon unknown option instead of warning
the option is unknown and thus ignored
- fixed missing throw in tools.cpp (exception condition was not reported)
- dar now aborts if a line exceeding 20479 bytes is met in a listing file
- fixed bug in file listing (-[ option) leading some directories and their
content to be excluded in a somehow rare condition
- improved behavior when dar reads a negative date. Instead of aborting
it now asks the user if it can substitute such value by zero
- improved behavior when dar is asked to read an archive located in a
directory that does not exist. DUC file passed to -E option is now
properly run in that case too and has the possibility for example to
create that directory and download requested file
- minor feature: displays the archive header which is never ciphered and
aborts. This feature is activated while listing archive content and
adding the -aheader option. This brings the side effect to invert two
lines in the archive summary (dar -l archive -q) "catalogue size" and
"user comment".
- adding date format info for -w option in "dar_manager -h" usage help
- fixed several mistakes in tools.cpp leading compilation to fail under
certain environments
- fixed bug in the filtering mechanism relying on file listing (-[ and
- ] options) that could not find an entry in the listing upon certain
condition leading a file not being excluded as requested or not
included as requested
- fixed bug: -r option (only more recent overwriting policy) was
considering a file to be more recent when it had the exact same date as
the file in place.
- updating documentation about requirements for compiling dar from sources
- fixed bug: bug met when restoring of a file that has the immutable
flag set. Dar/libdar failed restoring such file in the context of
differential/incremental backup. The fix consists of the removal of the
immutable flag from filesystem before restoring the new version of the
file's data, then setting back the immutable flag afterward.
- updating FAQ with description of the way dar uses lzo compression
compared to the lzop program
- fixed bug: aborting an archive was leading to an unreadable archive in
direct mode, most of the time when strong encryption was used
- minor new feature: added two flavors of lzo algorithm: lzop-1 and lzop-3
in order to match compression levels 1 and 3 of the lzop command
- fixed bug: merging operation could wrongly melt different unrelated hard
linked inodes when merging using an archive which results from a previous
merging operation.
- fixed bug: aborting an archive was sometimes leading to an unreadable
archive in direct mode (was readable only in --sequential-read mode)
- fixed bug: libgpgme was only present at linking time of final binaries
(dar, dar_slave, dar_xform, dar_manager, dar_cp, dar_split), not at
linking time of libdar, which caused problem under Linux Rosa distro
where the "no-undefined" flag is passed to the linker.
- minor new feature: -ay option has been added to display sizes in bytes
instead of the default which uses the largest possible unit (Kio, Mio,
and so on.)

==== perl-Encode ====
Version update (2.93 -> 2.94)
- updated to 2.94
see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-Encode/Changes
==== perl-Perl-Tidy ====
Version update (20171214 -> 20180101)
- updated to 20180101
see /usr/share/doc/packages/perl-Perl-Tidy/CHANGES
2018 01 01
- Added new flag -wn (--weld-nested-containers) which addresses these issues:
RT #123749: Problem with promises;
RT #119970: opening token stacking strange behavior;
RT #81853: Can't stack block braces
This option causes closely nested pairs of opening and closing containers
to be "welded" together and essentially be formatted as a single unit,
with just one level of indentation.
Since this is a new flag it is set to be "off" by default but it has given
excellent results in testing.
EXAMPLE 1, multiple blocks, default formatting:
do {
{
next if $x == $y; # do something here
}
} until $x++ > $z;
perltidy -wn
do { {
next if $x == $y;
} } until $x++ > $z;
EXAMPLE 2, three levels of wrapped function calls, default formatting:
p(
em(
conjug(
translate( param('verb') ), param('tense'),
param('person')
)
)
);
[#] perltidy -wn
p( em( conjug(
translate( param('verb') ),
param('tense'), param('person')
) ) );
[#] EXAMPLE 3, chained method calls, default formatting:
get('http://mojolicious.org')->then(
sub {
my $mojo = shift;
say $mojo->res->code;
return get('http://metacpan.org');
}
)->then(
sub {
my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
}
)->catch(
sub {
my $err = shift;
warn "Something went wrong: $err";
}
)->wait;
[#] perltidy -wn
get('http://mojolicious.org')->then( sub {
my $mojo = shift;
say $mojo->res->code;
return get('http://metacpan.org');
} )->then( sub {
my $cpan = shift;
say $cpan->res->code;
} )->catch( sub {
my $err = shift;
warn "Something went wrong: $err";
} )->wait;
- Fixed RT #114359: Missparsing of "print $x ** 0.5;
- Deactivated the --check-syntax flag for better security. It will be
ignored if set.
- Corrected minimum perl version from 5.004 to 5.008 based on perlver
report. The change is required for coding involving wide characters.
- For certain severe errors, the source file will be copied directly to the
output without formatting. These include ending in a quote, ending in a
here doc, and encountering an unidentified character.
