I have a set of three patches for perl-5.20.3 here: https://github.com/afresh1/OpenBSD-perl/tree/5_20/patches/GOOD/UPSTREAM I started with the commits you mention, added some for the removed scripts, s2p and find2perl, and then used this set of scripts to bump versions and fix t/porting/customized.dat. I https://github.com/afresh1/OpenBSD-perl/tree/5_20/bin/CVE-2016-1238 The scripts are fairly rough, just supposed to be a one-off. I didn't find a good way to update Porting/Maintainers.PL so that I did skip due to lack of time, but that didn't seem *too* important. (If someone knows how to bump that other than manually, I'd love to know) I'll be also doing 5.20.2 sometime this week, but that will probably just get committed directly to CVS. I expect to do the same, start with the first patch and then run the fix_patches.sh script. l8rZ, -- andrew - http://afresh1.com The programmer's national anthem is 'AAAAAAAARRRRGHHHHH!!'.Thread Previous | Thread Next
