Fedora Project

  • Raised Bug #593307 to try to get the pointless bacula-sysconfdir package merged back into the bacula-common package

  • Updated perl-Test-Distribution in EPEL-6 to merge changes from my local package:

    • Signature test dropped upstream, so Module::Signature not needed as buildreq, and no need to go to great lengths to avoid clobbering ~/.gnupg

    • Recode README and Changes.pod as UTF8

    • Run tests in "C" locale to avoid Module::Build's inability to find perl in the test suite on older distributions

Local Packages

  • Updated dovecot (and pigeonhole) to 20100515 snapshots, and created a dovenull user account for login process:

    • fixed crash for THREAD command
    • removed imap-utf7 binary (doveadm mailbox convert replaced it)

  • More builds for RHEL-6: perl-Test-Distribution, perl-Unicode-MapUTF8, proftpd, symlinks, torrentsniff
