[Added]
- Documentation for the security layer
[Fixed]
- CVE-2025-40918 (Insecure source of randomness),
required addition of dependency on Crypt::URandom
- Several public functions missing from the API documentation
[Changed]
- Modules Authen::SASL::Perl::CRAM_MD5, Authen::SASL::Perl::DIGEST_MD5
and Authen::SASL::CRAM_MD5 marked as deprecated based on the respective
RFC documents; thanks to @robrwo for the suggestion and @neustradamus
for the pointers to the documentation
- Update module metadata to point to the new 'perl-authen-sasl' org
on GitHub to which the modules moved
- Use VERSION declarations in 'package' statements, since our minimum
Perl version is 5.14 anyway

Adding the meta-perl layer to your build
In order to use this layer, you need to make the build system aware of it.
Assuming the meta-perl layer exists at the top-level of your yocto build tree, you can add it to the build system by adding the location of the meta-perl layer to bblayers.conf, along with any other layers needed. e.g.:
BBLAYERS ?= "
/path/to/oe-core/meta
/path/to/layer/meta-perl \
