Local Packages

  • Updated curl to strip the URL variable from the pkgconfig file for libcurl on older distributions, which causes pkg-config on those distributions to barf and result in libcurl not being found by applications looking for it

  • Updated dovecot to support winbind authentication (as per the official Fedora packages), useful for single-sign on in conjunction with samba

  • Updated proftpd to include LDAP schema and LDIF files for managing quotas, as per the official Fedora packages

With the release of Fedora 8 due imminently, I've also started building any of my packages needed for Fedora 8 that haven't yet been built during the Fedora 8 development cycle (i,e, those that still have a .fc7 dist tag in the development repo).

Today's packages were: grepmail, gtorrentviewer, mod_fastcgi, moin, moin-macro-MiniPage, moin-macro-TitleIndexNonPersonal, moin-theme-balanced, moin-theme-hypermodern, moin-theme-mentalwealth, moin-theme-monomoin, moin-theme-widget, python-twisted, python-twisted-conch, python-twisted-lore, python-twisted-mail, python-twisted-names, python-twisted-news, python-twisted-runner, python-twisted-web, python-twisted-words, tidy (20051026 version), torrentsniff, and xv

Some of these had dist tag issues requiring spec file changes and hence rebuilds for all distributions.
