  • How to install Berkeley DB (dev) on Windows?
    1 project | /r/perl | 23 Oct 2022
    I bumped into DB_File and I noticed that the CI is only enabled for Linux and OSX. In order to set it up for Windows as well one would need to install Berkeley DB on Windows. Is it possible. Would you like to send a PR to that git repo to have that in the CI.

    /u/briandfoy also says: "We've revitalized CPAN::Audit. It's a tool that can scan your installed modules for known security issues. It's all at cpan-audit. Along with that, I'm soliciting people to sign the keys that I use to sign the data that we distribute. Since this is security software, we want people to trust the data that we are giving them. Just follow the instructions."
