==== Fedora Project ====

 * Raised EL-6 branch requests for `perl-Devel-Cycle` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620410|Bug #620410]]), `perl-Pod-Spell` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620411|Bug #620411]]), `perl-Test-Memory-Cycle` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620413|Bug #620413]]), `perl-Exception-Class` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620416|Bug #620416]]), `perl-Test-Spelling` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620419|Bug #620419]]), `perl-String-Format` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620420|Bug #620420]]), `perl-B-Keywords` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620421|Bug #620421]]), and `perl-Perl-Critic` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620423|Bug #620423]]). These are all packages already in EL-6 - but not on the `ppc64` architecture, so we need to rebuild the EL-6 packages in EPEL for full architecture coverage. Rob Myers, EPEL maintainer for all of these packages except `perl-Exception-Class`, quickly offered me co-maintainership of his EPEL packages, which I took up.
 * Raised an EL-6 branch request for `perl-MIME-Lite` ([[RedHatBugzilla:620459|Bug #620459]]), which was included in EL-6 as recently as Beta 2 but [[http://www.redhat.com/archives/epel-devel-list/2010-August/msg00007.html|mysteriously dropped from the Beta 2 Refresh]]

==== Local Packages ====

 * Branched my repository for Fedora 14; the `development` repository is now targeting Fedora 15
 * Updated `libidn` to move the shared library from `/usr/lib` to `/lib` as per the Fedora package for F-9 and EL-6 onwards ([[RedHatBugzilla:283651|Bug #283651]]); this was particularly necessary to avoid a broken dependency with `guestfish`
 * Updated `perl-BerkeleyDB` to 0.43:
   * Changes to build with BDB 5.1
   * Dropped support for `Server` option when creating an environment
   * Documentation updates ([[CPAN:59202|CPAN RT#59202]])
   * Fixed compilation error with MS Visual Studio 2005 ([[CPAN:59924|CPAN RT#59924]])
 * Updated `perl-Test-LeakTrace` to 0.13:
   * Use "`>= 0`", instead of "`== 0`" for `no_leaks_ok()`
   * Add `count_sv()` to count all the `SV`s in a `perl` interpreter
   * Fix tests for older `perl`s
