Local Packages

  • Updated curl to use different port numbers in the test suite for different distribution release / architecture combinations so that multiple builds can run in parallel on the same machine; arrange for the test suite to be skipped on EOL-ed Fedora releases to significantly reduce the build time (test coverage for old distributions is maintained by running the test suite for Enterprise Linux builds); also added a couple of NSS patches from Rawhide

  • Updated perl-Pod-Simple to 3.11

  • Updated proftpd 1.3.3 branch to 1.3.3rc3, including a patch I created today to not segfault on auth failures with OpenSSL 1.0 beta (upstream bug 3350)

  • Updated proftpd to 1.3.2c, which also includes the no segfault on auth failures patch

Fedora Project

  • Updated proftpd to address the segfault issue as above (Rawhide, F-12, and F-11), and then again to bump to the newly-released version 1.3.2c, which addresses CVE-2009-3555 (SSL/TLS renegotiation) amongst other things
