Description Petr Pisar 2014-10-10 11:18:01 UTC
Spec URL: https://ppisar.fedorapeople.org/perl-String-Compare-ConstantTime/perl-String-Compare-ConstantTime.spec
SRPM URL: https://ppisar.fedorapeople.org/perl-String-Compare-ConstantTime/perl-String-Compare-ConstantTime-0.310-1.fc22.src.rpm
Description:
This module provides one function "equals" which works like perl's "eq", but
which does not provide a timing side-channel. Such comparison is useful when
matching against a secret string.

No blockers, approving.

Just add commas around `"equals"' in your %description.
