Bug#740281: ITP: libperlio-utf8-strict-perl -- fast and correct UTF-8 Perl IO module



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Florian Schlichting <fsfs@debian.org>

* Package name    : libperlio-utf8-strict-perl
  Version         : 0.004
  Upstream Author : Leon Timmermans <leont@cpan.org>, Christian Hansen <chansen@cpan.org>
* URL             : https://metacpan.org/release/PerlIO-utf8_strict

  Description     : fast and correct UTF-8 Perl IO module

PerlIO::utf8_strict provides a fast and correct UTF-8 PerlIO layer.
Unlike perl's default :utf8 layer it checks the input for correctness
and will croak if it finds an ill-formed UTF-8 octet sequence or
noncharacter code points not meant for interchange.

It is a new dependency of libmixin-linewise-perl and will be maintained
under the pkg-perl umbrella.
