==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-MIME-XBase64` to 3.10:
  * Provide functions to calculate the length of encoded and decoded base64 strings ([[CPAN:62404|CPAN RT#62404]])
 * Updated `perl-Pod-Simple` to 3.15 and bumped its Epoch to `1` as per the Fedora package:
  * Removed "`perlpod.pod`" and "`perlpodspec.pod`", which now just live in the Perl core
  * Fixed stylesheet names output by `HTMLBatch` to match the names of the actual stylesheet files (broken in 3.09 - [[CPAN:56725|CPAN RT#56725]])
  * Added missing closing slash to the CSS links in the XHTML output
  * Added parentheses around `bar "qw(...)"` in `t/xhtml05.t`
  * Improved the `Pod::Simple::HTML` docs
  * `Pod::Simple::XHTML` now properly encodes entities in URLs in the anchor tag ([[CPAN:60249|CPAN RT#60249]])
  * `Pod::Simple::HTML` and `XHTML` now strip whitespace from the end of section names that appear as anchor names for headers (in HTML) and IDs (in XHTML); such whitespace appeared when "`X<>`" entities were stripped out but not the space between them ([[CPAN:56572|CPAN RT#56572]])
  * Make test "`t/search50.t`" always pass on case-insensitive file systems rather than just skip VMS

==== Python Upgrade Broke Moin ====

Today I updated my web server box from Fedora 13 to Fedora 14, which included an upgrade of `python` from version 2.6 to 2.7.
When I tried to access the wiki I got an ''Internal Server Error (500)'', and this traceback in `/var/log/httpd/error_log`:

}}}
The usual googling around suggested that clearing all of the wiki page caches should fix this, and indeed it did:
{{{
# runuser -s /bin/sh -c "moin --config-dir=/srv/mywiki/cgi-bin --wiki-url=http://example.com/mywiki/ maint cleancache" apache
}}}
