==== Local Packages ====

Today I updated `proftpd` to 1.3.4rc1, in `svn` only due to the inclusion of a 50MB test file in the source tarball.
This file won't be present in the next release candidate, so I'll probably do a full set of builds for that.

Upstream changes:
 * Added Japanese translation
 * Many `mod_sftp` bugfixes
 * Fixed `SSL_shutdown()` errors caused by OpenSSL 0.9.8m and later
 * Added support for SMTP authentication in `ftpmail` script
 * Updated `fnmatch` implementation, using `glibc`-2.9 version
 * New modules:
  * `mod_copy`
  * `mod_deflate`
  * `mod_ifversion`
  * `mod_qos`
 * New configuration directives:
  * `Protocols`
  * `ScoreboardMutex`
  * `SFTPClientAlive`
  * `WrapOptions`
 * Changed configuration directives:
  * `BanOnEvent`
  * `ListOptions`
  * `LogFormat`
  * `SFTPOptions`
  * `TLSOptions`
  * `UseSendfile`
 * Deprecated configuration directives:
  * `DisplayGoAway` (support for this directive has been removed)
Downstream changes:
 * Added `%check` section, running the API tests by default (requiring buildreq `check-devel`)
 * Added upstream patch (http://bugs.proftpd.org/3568), modified slightly, to fix the API tests
 * Added facility to run the `perl`-based integration test suite if the build option `--with integrationtests` is supplied; this is off by default as it is not fully maintained and is expected to fail in parts (see http://bugs.proftpd.org/3568#c5); this needs additional buildreqs `perl(Compress::Zlib)`, `perl(IO::Socket::SSL)`, `perl(Net::FTPSSL)`, `perl(Net::SSLeay)`, `perl(Net::Telnet)`, `perl(Test::Harness)` and `perl(Time::HiRes)`
 * Bundled `perl(Test::Unit)` 0.14, needed to run the integration test suite (the version in Fedora is an incompatible later version not from CPAN)
 * Build new DSO modules: `mod_copy`, `mod_deflate`, `mod_ifversion` and `mod_qos`
 * QoS support can be enabled in `/etc/sysconfig/proftpd`
 * Add patch to fix up the `configure` script to be able to handle `mysql_config` scripts in ancient distributions that have output that's incompatible with what `proftpd` expects
