==== Fedora Project ====

Completed the task started [[PaulHowarth/Blog/2009-03-13|back in March]] of getting `perl-Net-SSH-Perl` into EPEL
for Xavier Bachelot, who needs it for `perl-Net-SFTP`:

 * Got in touch with FedoraProject:StevenPritchard who OK-ed me to fix up and build for EPEL the `perl-Crypt-DES_EDE3`, `perl-Class-ErrorHandler`, `perl-Convert-PEM`, and `perl-Convert-ASCII-Armour` packages
 * Built my own packages for `perl-Crypt-DSA`, `perl-Crypt-RSA`, and `perl-Net-SSH-Perl`
 * Whilst I was at it, I noticed that the manpage for `Crypt::RSA` wasn't UTF-8 encoded, so I fixed that in devel too
 * Having done all those, Xavier then asked me to do the same for `perl-Net-SFTP` itself, which was actually another of Steve's packages, so I did, committing and building it after testing that it was functional from a CentOS4 chroot

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-Test-Output` to 0.15 (Fedora 9 onwards)

Built many more packages for the upcoming Fedora 11 repository:
`bw-whois`,
`grepmail`,
`perl-Algorithm-Diff`,
`perl-Convert-BinHex`,
`perl-Convert-TNEF`,
`perl-Config-Tiny`,
`perl-ConfigReader-Simple`,
`perl-Crypt-GPG`,
`perl-Crypt-SmbHash`,
`perl-Devel-Symdump`,
`perl-Digest-BubbleBabble`,
`perl-Error`,
`perl-Expect`,
`perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder`,
`perl-File-Find-Rule`,
`perl-File-Remove`,
`perl-FileHandle-Unget`,
`perl-HTML-SimpleLinkExtor`,
`perl-HTTP-SimpleLinkChecker`,
`perl-HTTP-Size`,
`perl-IO-Multiplex`,
`perl-IO-stringy`,
`perl-IPC-Run3`,
`perl-Jcode`,
`perl-LMAP-CID2SPF`,
`perl-Mail-Mbox-MessageParser`,
`perl-Mail-Sender`,
`perl-Mail-Sendmail`,
`perl-Mail-SPF`,
`perl-Mail-SPF-Query`,
`perl-Mail-SPF-Test`,
`perl-Mail-SRS`

I also did a full rebuild for all releases of `perl-File-Remove`, with a buildreq of `perl(Test::CPAN::Meta)`
added, as that wasn't available when I originally built the package.

The build of `perl-HTML-SimpleLinkExtor` proved to be particularly tricky as the test suite mysteriously failed,
and even a Fedora 10 build (which had worked when I created the Fedora 10 repo) failed the same way.

Looking on CPAN revealed many more testers with the same issue but no bug report.
I managed to track this problem down to a change made in `HTML::Parser` after version 3.56
that made most of the links in the example files (after an `<IFRAME>` tag) invisible to `HTML::LinkExtor`
(which `HTML::SimpleLinkExtor` uses).
I raised [[http://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=46052|CPAN Bug #46052]] about this.
