Fedora EPEL Update Notification
FEDORA-EPEL-2021-813118785a

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : mod_perl
Product : Fedora EPEL 8
Version : 2.0.11
Release : 4.el8
URL : http://perl.apache.org/
Summary : An embedded Perl interpreter for the Apache HTTP Server
Description :
Mod_perl incorporates a Perl interpreter into the Apache web server,
so that the Apache web server can directly execute Perl code.
Mod_perl links the Perl run-time library into the Apache web server and
provides an object-oriented Perl interface for Apache's C language
API. The end result is a quicker CGI script turnaround process, since
no external Perl interpreter has to be started.
Install mod_perl if you're installing the Apache web server and you'd
like for it to directly incorporate a Perl interpreter.
