Local Packages

  • Updated a large number of packages, particularly perl modules, that had not been updated during the Fedora 7 development cycle and hence hadn't been built with an appropriate dist tag to identify themselves to my repository-building script for Fedora 7
  • Updated perl-HTML-Tidy to 1.08, for recent distributions only. Older distributions had to stick with 1.06 because the new version uses some UTF8 functionality that older perls don't have. I was also bitten by CPAN RT#26875 on Fedora 7 due to incompatibility between recent versions of libtidy and HTML::Tidy, so the fact that my own libtidy packages are still made from the 20051025 snapshot was actually an advantage ;-)
