Name        : perl-Coro
Product     : Fedora EPEL 6
Version     : 5.372
Release     : 3.el6
URL         : http://search.cpan.org/dist/Coro/
Summary     : The only real threads in perl
Description :
This module collection manages continuations in general, most often in the
form of cooperative threads (also called coros, or simply "coro" in the
documentation). They are similar to kernel threads but don't (in general) run
in parallel at the same time even on SMP machines. The specific flavor of
thread offered by this module also guarantees you that it will not switch
between threads unless necessary, at easily-identified points in your
program, so locking and parallel access are rarely an issue, making thread
programming much safer and easier than using other thread models.

Update Information:

This update brings in a **new package** for EPEL6: `perl-EV`.

Additionnally, this allows building `perl-Coro` with the **`Coro::EV` support enabled**, which wasn't available before.

Finally, the `perl-Coro` package gets its own **update** to a later upstream release which shouldn't bring any incompatibility or regression.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This update can be installed with the "yum" update programs.  Use
su -c 'yum update perl-Coro' at the command line.
For more information, refer to "Managing Software with yum",
available at http://docs.fedoraproject.org/yum/.

All packages are signed with the Fedora EPEL GPG key.  More details on the
GPG keys used by the Fedora Project can be found at
