Fedora Project

  • Updated perl-File-Comments to 0.08 in Rawhide and EPEL-6:

    • Adapt to HTML::Element ≥ 4 change that omits the trailing newline in generated HTML (CPAN RT#63788)

  • This resolves a failure to build from source issue in Rawhide (Bug #661088); upstream merged my patch fixing the problem

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.37 in Rawhide:

    • Don't complain about invalid certificate locations if user explicitly set SSL_ca_path and SSL_ca_file to undef: assume that user knows what they are doing and will work around the problems themselves (CPAN RT#63741)

  • Updated proftpd in Rawhide to update mod_vroot to 0.9 (improvements to alias handling); note that contrary to the previous release, the source of an alias must be an absolute path and the destination a relative path in the virtual root, which breaks the previous default configuration - the VRootAlias line in proftpd.conf must be changed to work with this release: 

  • -VRootAlias                     etc/security/pam_env.conf /etc/security/pam_env.conf
+VRootAlias                     /etc/security/pam_env.conf etc/security/pam_env.conf

  • Updated spambayes in Fedora 14 and Rawhide to fix a missing python-lockfile dependency (Bug #661942)

Local Packages

  • Updated perl-IO-Socket-SSL to 1.37 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Locale-Maketext-Lexicon to 0.83:

    • Remove the local $@ when loading PO files, which made it difficult to debug errors when loading PO's (CPAN RT#63722)

  • Updated perl-Pod-Readme to 0.11, changing from a Build.PL flow to a Makefile.PL flow as Build.PL was dropped from the upstream release:

    • Recognise the =encoding directive, rather than dying when it's encountered

    • TODO: actually take heed of it

  • Updated perl-Test-Most to add explicit requires for perl(Test::Deep), perl(Test::Differences), perl(Test::Exception) and perl(Test::Warn) that are no longer automatically detected

  • Updated perl-version to 0.87:

    • Remove support for Build.PL to keep from introducing circular dependencies

  • Updated proftpd as per the Fedora version

  • Updated smbldap-tools as per yesterday's update in Fedora
