Fedora 9: Leading edge or bleeding edge?

Mon, 19 May 2008 18:00:00 GMT
With Fedora 9, the Fedora project continues its tradition of being the most innovative major distribution, combining new applications from other distributions as well as its own inventions. However, in no other release has Fedora walked the line between leading edge and bleeding edge so precariously. At times, as with its updating of subsystems and its selection of desktop software, Fedora 9 manages to innovate without inconveniencing users. But, in other cases, most notably in the changes to package installation, the project has chosen innovation over usability.

NAME
Module::Packaged - Report upon packages of CPAN distributions SYNOPSIS
use Module::Packaged; my $p = Module::Packaged->new(); my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar'); # $dists is now: # { # cpan => '1.08', # debian => '1.03', # fedora => '0.22', # freebsd => '1.07', # gentoo => '1.05', # openbsd => '0.22', # suse => '0.23', # } # meaning that Archive-Tar is at version 1.08 on CPAN but only at # version 1.07 on FreeBSD, version 1.05 on Gentoo, version 1.03 on # Debian, version 0.23 on SUSE and version 0.22 on OpenBSD DESCRIPTION
CPAN consists of distributions. However, CPAN is not an isolated system - distributions are also packaged in other places, such as for operating systems. This module reports whether CPAN distributions are packaged for various operating systems, and which version they have. Note: only CPAN, Debian, Fedora (Core 2), FreeBSD, Gentoo, Mandriva (10.1), OpenBSD (3.6) and SUSE (9.2) are currently supported. I want to support everything else. Patches are welcome. METHODS
new() The new() method is a constructor: my $p = Module::Packaged->new(); check() The check() method returns a hash reference. The keys are various distributions, the values the version number included: my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar'); COPYRIGHT
