==== Local Packages ====

 * New package `perl-Dist-CheckConflicts` (0.02)
 * Updated `bluefish` to 2.0.3-rc1, dropping the existing patches (which are now integrated into upstream release) and adding a new patch to remove the definition of `GSEAL_ENABLE`, which breaks builds on Fedora < 12; I also bumped the `gtk2` version requirement to 2.14 as the functions `gtk_adjustment_get_lower` and `gtk_adjustment_get_page_size` (which were introduced in 2.14) are now used - this breaks builds on Fedora 9 (and possibly debian stable) and so may get reverted before 2.0.3 final but for now I've dropped Fedora 9 support
 * Updated `perl-Class-MOP` to 1.12:
  * Remove usage of undocumented `Package::Stash` APIs from the tests, which prevents the tests from failing on `Package::Stash` ≥ 0.18
 * Updated `perl-DBI` to 1.616, filtering out the new dependencies on `perl(Coro*)` for the time being as it'll take a while to import that and its dependency chain:
  * Fixed spurious `dbi_profile` lines written to the log when profiling is enabled and a trace flag, like `SQL`, is used
  * Fixed to recognize `SQL::Statement` errors even if instantiated with `RaiseError=0`
  * Fixed [[CPAN:61513|CPAN RT#61513]] by catching attribute assignment to tied table access interface
  * Fixed some misbehaviour of `DBD::File` when running within the Gofer server
  * Fixed compiler warnings ([[CPAN:62640|CPAN RT#62640]])
  * Optimized `connect()` to remove redundant `FETCH` of `\%attrib` values
  * Improved initialization phases in `DBI::DBD::SqlEngine`
  * Added `DBD::Gofer::Transport::corostream`, an experimental proof-of-concept transport that enables asynchronous database calls with few code changes
  * Added additional notes on DBDs that avoid creating a statement in the `do()` method and the effects on error handlers
  * Added new attribute "`sql_dialect`" to `DBI::DBD::SqlEngine` to allow users control over the used `SQL` dialect (`ANSI`, `CSV` or `AnyData`), defaults to `CSV`
  * Added documentation for `DBI::DBD::SqlEngine` attributes
  * Documented `dbd_st_execute` return
  * Fixed typo in `InactiveDestroy`
 * Updated `perl-Locale-Maketext-Lexicon` to 0.84:
  * Changed the minimum version of `Locale::Maketext` to 1.17, to avoid error reports from recent Perl versions, which still have an old `Locale::Maketext`
  * Avoid `uninit` warnings when `msgid`s contain trailing spaces in `Locale::Maketext::Extract`
 * Updated `perl-Net-FTPSSL` to 0.17:
  * Fixed a subtle bug in `response()`, which now tests if parse succeeded instead of assuming it
  * Reordered the methods in the POD
  * Reworked `t/10-complex.t` quite a bit
  * Fixed the smoke tester failures ([[CPAN:64109|CPAN RT#64109]])
  * `t/10-complex.t` now checks if `OverridePASV` or `OverrideHELP` are needed against the test server and dynamically adds it for the test cases if needed
  * Added `PASV`/`EPSV` prompt to `t/10-complex.t` script instead of assuming `PASV`
 * Updated `perl-Package-Stash` to 0.20:
  * Methods were renamed for brevity: `s/_package//`
  * Convert `Package::Stash `into a module that loads either the XS or pure perl implementation, depending on what's available
  * Use `Dist::CheckConflicts`
  * Silence deprecation warnings for the method renaming for now
 . Packaging-wise, a new script `package-stash-conflicts` and module `Package::Stash::Conflicts` were added, though I had to manually rpm-provide `perl(Package::Stash::Conflicts)` as upstream's bodge to hide this module from PAUSE also hides it from `rpm`'s automatic provides-generator, creating a broken dependency as the `package-stash-conflicts` script requires it.
 . There are also new build requirements:
  * `perl(Dist::CheckConflicts)`
  * `perl(Package::DeprecationManager)`
  * `perl(Package::Stash::XS)`
  * `perl(Test::LeakTrace)`
  * `perl(Test::Requires)`
  * `perl(Test::Script)`
 . I had to add a new patch to work around the unavailability of `perl(Test::Requires)` on old distributions, and I manually added a runtime dependency on `perl(Package::Stash::XS)` for performance and consistency reasons.
