[net-dns-users] Fast-track release candidate for Net::DNS 1.19

[Willem Toorop]

Dear all,

We have a candidate for the upcoming fast-track 1.19 release of Net::DNS.

This release two bugfixes:

  * A bugfix for search() returning a NODATA packet instead of the
    documented undef in some situations

  * A bugfix to not use global bare file handles when reading the
    resolver configuration file


This release also contains a new feature to show the structure of EDNS
options when printing. For example:

    $packet->edns->print;

    ;; EDNS version 0
    ;;      flags:  8000
    ;;      rcode:  NOERROR
    ;;      size:   1280
    ;;      option: DAU    => ( 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16 )
    ;;              DHU    => ( 1, 2, 4 )
    ;;              COOKIE => ( CLIENT-COOKIE => 7261776279746573,
    ;;                          SERVER-COOKIE =>  )


Please review this candidate carefully. If no issues arise, the actual
release will follow Wednesday the 14th of November 2018.
