It turns out the actual schedule for 5.22.1 is around September and the original announcement that it would come in about a monthwqas copied from some older announcement. :-) I have rebuilt Perl 5.22.0 and all distributions including some updates in the last month with the updated toolchain. I've uploaded the files to my server if you want to test, please point setup at: setup-{x86,x86_64}.exe -XOs http://cygwin.stromeko.net/ Again, since the release numbers haven't been bumped, it's easiest to cheat on setup to get it to re-install everything Perl: sed -re 's/( perl-.*-)[0-9]+\./\10./' -i.bak /etc/setup/installed.db Keep in mind I have downgraded perl-Unicode-Normalize to 1.17, so you need to click on that switch. As a reminder to the other maintainers, here's the list of packages to be taken care of for the update again. The following Perl distributions are in the hands of Yaakov, mainly because they are related to library or tool packages he owns. perl-Authen-SASL perl-Cairo perl-Cairo-GObject perl-Glib perl-Glib-Object-Introspection perl-Gnome2 perl-Gnome2-Canvas perl-Gnome2-GConf perl-Gnome2-Rsvg perl-Gnome2-VFS perl-Gnome2-Vte perl-Gnome2-Wnck perl-GStreamer perl-GStreamer-Interfaces perl-Gtk2 perl-Gtk2-GladeXML perl-Gtk2-Notify perl-Gtk2-SourceView2 perl-Gtk2-Spell perl-Gtk2-Unique perl-Gtk2-WebKit perl-Gtk3 perl-MailTools perl-Net-SMTP-SSL perl-Pango perl-PAR-Packer perl-SGMLSpm perl-Tk perl-Tk-Canvas-GradientColor perl-Tk-ColoredButton perl-Tk-EntryCheck perl-Tk-Getopt perl-Tk-Pod There are a few Perl distribution packages that are captive in another source package. The hopefully complete list of such packages: perl-Graphics-Magick perl-gv perl-Image-Magick perl-ming perl-Net-Libproxy perl-Xfce4-Xfconf perl-zinnia This means that again Yaakov as well as Marco and Volker need to re-release those. Yaakov has volunteered to update Volker's packages while he's away, I hope the offer still stands. These packages place module files into vendor_perl while the package name has nothing to do with Perl (not all of them are available for both architectures): amanda biber git-svn git irssi net-snmp-perl po4a pristine-tar sendxmpp subversion-perl And lastly, two packages put files in site_perl which should not happen for official packages, so that should be corrected anyway: grepmail stow The last two sets of packages involve Mark O'Keefe, Ken Brown, Adam Dinwoodie, Marco, David Rothenberger, Jari Aalto, Andrew Schulman and Yaakov again. Since the move of all packages into the release should happen at the same time, I think we need to do something slightly different this time around: I propose that instead of posting a !ready cookie a !perl cookie is used instead (I hopa that would not create problems with upset). Then a maintainer with full ssh access can flip those cookies over to !ready between two scans so that all packages get moved at the same time. Would that work for everybody?
