Local Packages
Updated bittorrent to 5.0.1; the most obvious ImportError: cannot import name task bug has been fixed upstream but my other traceback-fixing patches still apply OK, which suggests that command-line users using the upstream packages are still in for a tough time (my packages can be found here by the way)
Updated libidn to incorporate an info fix from the rawhide package (Bug #209491)
Updated proftpd to incorporate a couple of patches mentioned in Bug #214820, one of which may fix a remote code execution vulnerability
Fedora
Raised Bug #215970 regarding multilib dependency problems in FC6+updates kdeedu, and added a comment to Bug #214208 about a similar issue with FC6+updates bind-devel; I spotted these easily enough whilst running dependency closure checks for my own repo, so I think it would be wise to widen the scope of the Fedora Extras dependency checks that are run after each push
