Fedora Project
Updated bluefish in Rawhide to 2.0.2-rc1 (license has changed from GPLv2+ to GPLv3+ by the way)
Updated perl-Module-Signature in all EPEL branches to 0.66 (skip MYMETA)
In the evening I received three FTBFS bug reports regarding some of my packages for Fedora 14:
Bug #631131 (perl-RRD-Simple), which was due to Bug #631825 in rrdtool in which the i386 perl binding segfaults
Bug #631204 (ORBit), in which a long-standing problem processing a Makefile.in resulting in unexpanded macros @GT_YES@ and @GT_NO@ being left in the resulting Makefile was finally exposed by make version 3.82 (present in F-14 but not yet in Rawhide for some reason) as a syntax error in the Makefile - I patched ORBit and pushed the resulting ORBit-0.5.17-30 for F-14, Rawhide, and EL-6
Bug #631462 (bluefish) in which the buildreq man couldn't be found - it's been obsoleted but not provided by man-db; I'd already fixed that a while ago and the update was already queued to be pushed to stable, which happened a few hours later
Local Packages
Updated bluefish to 2.0.2-rc1
Updated perl-Devel-StackTrace to 1.25 (Devel::StackTraceFrame was not actually subclassing Devel::StackTrace::Frame)
Updated perl-Module-CoreList to 2.38 (updated for 5.12.2)
Updated perl-Module-Signature to 0.66, dropping the upstreamed patch for the ExtUtils::Manifest problem
Updated ORBit as per the Fedora version to resolve Bug #631204
