PerlOnTheWay has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I'm interested how the author fixed the memory leak issue mentioned here:

http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/OYAMA/Crypt-GCM-0.02/Changes

But I don't find a place to check the changelog ,is there a place to check the changelog on cpan?

    There is no such thing as the changelong so what are you talking about?

      Or svn diff?

        What if the module author were not using Subversion but RCS?

        Maybe you want a diff between the released module versions? See the "Tools" link on the module page on search.cpan.org. Or, you could ask the module author.

        Once again, what are you talking about (it wasn't a trick question)?

        • Its like asking: The 3?
        • What are you talking about?
        • No, I meant the 4?

        You're already reading the change log for Crypt-GCM-0.02 so what are you talking about?

        Crypt-GCM-0.02 doesn't list anything svn, and cpan is mostly a collection of archives (tarballs, zips..)

        Corion thinks you're asking for Crypt-GCM-0.01, is that right?

        His advice would work, but it appears Crypt-GCM-0.01.tar.gz has never been published to CPAN.
