2 Commits • 1 Features
Feb 1, 2026February 2026 — Perl/perl5: Upgraded Config::Perl::V to 0.39, added tests for Perl 5.42.0 and 5.43.7, and reorganized the configuration script for maintainability while preserving existing behavior. Regression tests confirm compatibility with newer Perl versions; refactoring reduces technical debt and future maintenance risk.

Jun 1, 2025June 2025 performance summary for Perl/perl5 focusing on portability and build reliability. Delivered a Configure script compatibility fix to support older Perl versions (5.6.x and 5.8.x) by removing reliance on pack 's>' for version string formatting and replacing it with sprintf. This change reduces configuration failures on legacy deployments and broadens the user base.
