Changes for version 2.74 - 2020-09-09

  • Features
  • Add ICMPv6_NI_REPLY support. Bugfixes
  • Fix icmp payload offset to match icmpv6 (JimC Leones GH #21) Skip the 20 byte header to reliably find the various return types. This unifies icmpv6 with icmp better.
  • Fix $SOCKET::VERSION eval (Petr Pavlu, PR #22) META Changes
  • Fix and improve the META repository as hashref, license as arrayref (Tom Hukins, PR #19)
  • add TEST_REQUIRES
  • sort MANIFEST
  • add windows smokers: appveyor Test fixes
  • Improve the tcp test to localhost, when there is no route to localhost (freebsd mostly)
  • TODO a flaky 450_service.t on 127.0.0.1 on port 2 on Windows (analog to freebsd, ...) (Christian Walde, PR #20)
  • Skip 501_ping_icmpv6.t when icmpv6 cannot be initialized. Mostly due to missing icmpv6 support. (GH #15)
  • add more xt tests: t/602_kwalitee.t, t/603_meta.t, t/604_manifest.t
