Fedora Project
Fixed FTBFS bug (Bug #565197) in bluefish (Fedora 13) as a result of Features/ChangeInImplicitDSOLinking; in this case it was due to log10() being called in src/bftextview2.c but the resulting executable not being linked against libm; the following patch to configure.ac was enough to resolve the problem:

Fixed FTBFS bug (Bug #564839) in grepmail (Fedora 13) as a result of the recent introduction into Fedora of Date::Manip version 6; I made a simple patch to resolve the issue and submitted it upstream as CPAN RT#54621:
