* Wed Mar 21 2007 (GalaxyMaster) 4:5.8.8-owl5- applied a fix to run tests without a need for network access.- disabled the hostent checks - this helps to build the package insideunconfigured chroot environment (i.e. after make installworld and chrootthere).

* Sun Jan 25 2004 Solar Designer 1:5.8.3-owl1- Additional temporary file handling fixes.- Made building/packaging of suidperl optional and officially unsupported.
* Tue Jan 20 2004 Solar Designer 1:5.8.3-owl0- Updated to 5.8.3.- Reviewed all the patches, re-generated those which are to remain, appliedvarious corrections to the patches and the spec file.

* Fri Jul 04 2003 Solar Designer 1:5.6.0-owl13- Corrected the Perl getpwent() to not rely on getspent(3) returningentries in the same order as getpwent(3) does; this actually makes adifference with /etc/tcb and likely with non-files password databases.

* Sun Aug 04 2002 Solar Designer - Use \"rm -f\" on compile.ph as it won\'t exist if the kernel sources under/usr/src/linux haven\'t been compiled (reported by Camiel Dobbelaar).
* Thu Jul 18 2002 Solar Designer - Patched c2ph and lib/ExtUtils/inst to use File::Temp, and the inst towork with GNU tar.- Patched lib/dotsh.pl to use a pipe instead of a temporary file (whichused to be created unsafely) and lib/perl5db.pl to not use /tmp/perldbtty$$.- Applied many fixes to documentation and code comments to not suggest badpractices on the use of temporary files.
* Tue Jul 16 2002 Solar Designer - Package File::Temp as needed for the modified perldoc.- Replaced perlcc with the version that uses File::Temp, from Perl 5.6.1.- Patched perlbug and s2p to create temporary files with File::Temp, andperlbug to use vitmp.- Package some plaintext documentation.- Only generate
*.ph files out of gcc, glibc and kernel headers (but notSCSI ones) by default.
* Sun Jul 14 2002 Solar Designer - Corrected the temporary file handling in perldoc (patch from ALT Linux)and Configure.- Use the versions of Perl-specific find-{provides,requires} included withRPM, don\'t bring our own with this package.- Only generate
*.ph files for packages which are a part of Owl, not otherpackages which just happened to be installed on the build system, and makethe line producing STDH out of PKGS actually work (did they ever test thisat Red Hat? same bug in Rawhide, so it seems not).- Override myuname (to `uname -mrs` rather than `uname -a`) and myhostnameand don\'t package linux/compile.ph to not leak information specific to thebuild system\'s last kernel compile.
* Thu Feb 07 2002 Michail Litvak - Enforce our new spec file conventions.
