Porters, I have created draft #21108 <https://github.com/Perl/perl5/pull/21108>, which creates a v5.38.0 release branch, which will currently build as v5.38.0-RC0. There are more (small, I believe) known issues to review, but for now: • on my laptop, t/porting/libperl.t fails, undefined current object: op.o: at porting/libperl.t line 254, <$nm_fh> line 2. • the perldelta may yet have errors • perlhist needs updating The first worries me: I just updated macOS yesterday, which changed some bits of my build stack, and I wonder if this is now a general "new xcode problems" problem. I haven't tried building on Linux or building an older version. I don't want to ship a new perl that doesn't build on today's macOS. The second: committers should feel free to push perldelta fixes to my branch, but be aware that I might drop or edit them! The third: I'll do it soon. I apologize for my general lack of updates on the release for the last two weeks. Other things, generally much more pressing, have kept piling up. I may be past enough of them now… 😉 -- rjbsThread Next
