Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

v1.10.2 tarball
Description:
original blog post

Elixir v1.10 comes with improvements to the standard library, the compiler, as well as several additions to the mix release feature added in v1.9. In particular, this version adds a lot of polish to existing features, such as our configuration system and our sorting APIs.

Elixir v1.10 requires Erlang/OTP 21+ (we have Erlang/OTP 22 already in the packages).

Changes:

  • Releases improvements
  • Improvements to sort-based APIs in Enum
  • Tracking of compile-time configuration
  • Compiler tracing
  • Improvements in calendar data types
  • Improvements in Elixir's AST
  • Improvements in ExUnit
  • Two new guards (is_struct/1 and is_map_key/2)

please read the following guide some info is missing https://getsol.us/articles/packaging/request-a-package-update/en/

I did, I entered all info required there. Can you please explain what's missing?

This whole part is entirely not present. How about adding that?

Description: Explanation as to the value-add of updating this package.

Bumping the elixir package to the latest version can hardly be considered value-add to updating something...

I am sorry, I am confused. Elixir is a programming language. I can't actually explain why updating the version adds value, I think it speaks by itself. I haven't asked for a version update before, so please bear with me for this. Thanks for the comment anyway.

One thing would be over the changelog, what it fixes, new features etc

Ok. Thanks for the information. Is that ok? 1.10.2 might have some minor improvements as well, want me to find something about that as well?

nono please summarize this and not just copy paste this :)
