So what's up with the CVE-2022-48522 cve.report/CVE-2022-48522

I've only learned about it from the CPAN::Audit release, which (along with some sources) says it affects all Perl >= v5.34 but security-tracker.debian.org/tr says Perl v5.32 is also vulnerable.

The latter links it to github.com/Perl/perl5/issues/1 and says it's fixed by v5.35.5.

Also, why was this publicly released without fixes or mitigations just before the August bank holiday in the UK and Labor Day holiday in the US?

@lancew I still use for some projects and I'm quite happy of having to only make minimal changes to good old code working since 20 years or so. Kudos to Larry Wall and the gang.

For reasons not at all clear to me, I find challenging and boring. That was true 20 years ago, and still happens. 🤔

A little announce for people interested in and .

As you probably noted, missed the move to Geo::GDAL::FFI, but now an unofficial repo is available and supported by me.

The incomgin releasse will miss binding for the ubiquitous library, the swiss knife of the geospatial world.

This is the direct consequence of the dropping of the XS based binding in the upstream project.

It is still possible using the CPAN Geo::GDAL::FFI interface and details for installation at system level are provided here:

@alcinnz I actually prefer the / method of having a good online repo for fetching libraries and Python has evolved dramatically in that way since the introduction of pip. That said, I still prefer curated well-known libraries that I can look up somewhere and probably trust because of who listed them. I'm the kind of programmer who wants to read reviews of libraries before using them.

@tfb @JonYoder That is a really interesting point. I remember two programming languages, and , that were really hot for awhile, for various reasons. Both went through a sort of boom and then a decline. I wonder what it is about these interpreted languages that caused that effect? I also wonder if we will see it effect more interpreted languages.

I need to quit trying to write perl like a language which has error handling, and embrace the YOLO, die fast mentality of true scripts.

I forgot make files can be fun to write.

Yes, things can be weird and opaque, but make automates install/uninstall of my little perl script just fine.
