Website: http://search.cpan.org/dist/Net-SSLeay/

Vendor: Fedora Project
Description:
This module offers some high level convenience functions for accessing
web pages on SSL servers (for symmetry, same API is offered for
accessing http servers, too), a sslcat() function for writing your own
clients, and finally access to the SSL API of SSLeay/OpenSSL package
so you can write servers or clients for more complicated applications.

perl-Net-SSLeay-1.49-1.fc18.i686 [276 KiB] Changelog by Paul Howarth (2012-09-25):
- update to 1.49
  - fixed problem where on some platforms test t/local/07_tcpecho.t would bail
    out if it could not bind port 1212; it now tries a number of ports to bind
    to until successful
  - improvements to unsigned casting
  - improvements to Net::SSLeay::read to make it easier to use with
    non-blocking IO: it modifies Net::SSLeay::read() to return the result from
    SSL_read() as the second return value, if Net::SSLeay::read() is called in
    list context (its behavior should be unchanged if called in scalar or void
    context)
  - fixed a problem where t/local/kwalitee.t fails with
    Module::CPANTS::Analyse 0.86
  - fixed a number of typos
  - fixed a compiler warning from Compiling with gcc-4.4 and -Wall
  - Fixed problems with get_https4: documentation was wrong, $header_ref was
    not correctly set and $server_cert was not returned
  - fixed a problem that could cause a Perl exception about no blength method
    on undef (CPAN RT#79309)
  - added documentation about how to mitigate various SSL/TLS vulnerabilities
  - SSL_MODE_* are now available as constants
- drop upstreamed pod encoding patch
