If we run
perl Porting/core-cpan-diff -ax, we are told that the CPAN version of the Net-Ping library is newer than what we have in blead.However, the governance of this library is ... complicated. We're currently treating Net-Ping as a "blead-first" library, which means it sits underneath
dist/in our distribution. However, at https://metacpan.org/pod/Net::Ping#AUTHORS we see:So synching the latest CPAN version into blead cannot be done cleanly by
Porting/sync-with-cpan Net::Ping. So this is the result of a hack. In reviewing this pull request, please examine the changes to Porting/Maintainers.pl and to dist/Net-Ping/Makefile.PL.
