Perl and perl modules

++++++++++ Note: We are going to change the version format of the modules. See https://github.com/openSUSE/cpanspec/issues/47 for context ++++++++++ ++++++++++ Note 2: Packages are maintained under git as of 2025-08-13: https://src.opensuse.org/perl https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:OBS_to_Git ++++++++++ Perl and a large number of important perl modules and tools. Module updates from CPAN are regularly checked (with scripts from https://github.com/openSUSE/autoupdate-perl and https://github.com/openSUSE/cpanspec ) and put into https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:languages:perl:autoupdate . Please check https://build.opensuse.org/project/show/devel:languages:perl:autoupdate first before doing your own update! An updated version of the module might already be there, just that there is no submit request yet. How to submit a new module here: https://github.com/openSUSE/cpanspec/wiki/Submit-a-new-Perl-module-to-openSUSE https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/perl/16.0/ openSUSE:Leap:16.0

Return a pair only if they are both defined

Moose classes (and some other classes) distinguish between an attribute being unset and the attribute being set to undef. Supplying a constructor arguments like this: my $bob = Person->new( name => $name, age => $age, ); Will result in the 'name' and 'age' attributes possibly being set to undef (if the corresponding '$name' and '$age' variables are not defined), which may violate the Person class' type constraints. (Note: if you are the _author_ of the class in question, you can solve this using MooseX::UndefTolerant. However, some of us are stuck using non-UndefTolerant classes written by third parties.) To ensure that the Person constructor does not try to set a name or age at all when they are undefined, ugly looking code like this is often used: my $bob = Person->new( defined $name ? (name => $name) : (), defined $age ? (age => $age) : (), ); or: my $bob = Person->new( (name => $name) x!!(defined $name), (age => $age) x!!(defined $age), ); A slightly more elegant solution is the 'maybe' function.
