==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-JSON` in Rawhide to 2.50 ([[RedHatBugzilla:665621|Bug #665621]]), necessary to avoid conflicts with the new `perl-JSON-PP` package, which was bundled with `perl-JSON` in previous releases; I also added new provides/requires filtering to remove references to internal-only package names in the `rpm` metadata
 * New package `perl-CPAN-Meta-YAML` (0.003) built for Rawhide, F-14, F-13 and EL-6; EL-5 and EL-4 builds will have to wait for the availability of `perl-Test-CPAN-Meta` and `perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta`, which will be around a month
 * New package `perl-JSON-PP` (2.27104) built for Rawhide only because it conflicts with `perl-JSON` < 2.50 as found in all older releases
 . Importing this package proved to be tricky because there's currently [[RedHatBugzilla:619979|Bug #619979]] affecting `fedpkg` whereby it crashes if there are no branches other than `master` present:
 . {{{
$ fedpkg new-sources JSON-PP-2.27104.tar.gz
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/fedpkg", line 1250, in <module>
    args.command(args)
  File "/usr/bin/fedpkg", line 607, in new_sources
    mymodule = pyfedpkg.PackageModule(args.path)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyfedpkg/__init__.py", line 1077, in __init__
    self.distval = self._findmasterbranch()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/pyfedpkg/__init__.py", line 1022, in _findmasterbranch
    return(int(fedoras[-1].strip('f')) + 1)
IndexError: list index out of range
}}}
 . Fortunately, Petr Pisar came up with a manual way of doing the import without polluting the repository with unwanted branches:
 . {{{
$ PACKAGE_NAME=perl-JSON-PP
$ SOURCE_FILE_NAME=JSON-PP-2.27104.tar.gz
$ echo "/${SOURCE_FILE_NAME}" > .gitignore
$ md5sum "${SOURCE_FILE_NAME}" > sources
$ MD5_SUM_OF_SOURCE_FILE=$(cut -d" " -f1 < sources)
$ curl -k --cert ~/.fedora.cert \
       -F "name=${PACKAGE_NAME}" \
       -F "md5sum=${MD5_SUM_OF_SOURCE_FILE}" \
       -F "file=@${SOURCE_FILE_NAME}" \
       https://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/repo/pkgs/upload.cgi
$ git add .gitignore sources ${PACKAGE_NAME}.spec
$ git commit
$ git push
$ koji build dist-f15 \
       "git://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/${PACKAGE_NAME}#$(<.git/refs/heads/master)"
}}}
 * New package `perl-Perl-OSType` (1.002) built for Rawhide, F-14, F-13 and EL-6; EL-5 and EL-4 builds will have to wait for the availability of `perl-Test-CPAN-Meta`, `perl-Test-Portability-Files` and `perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta`, which will be around a month
 * Built `perl-Data-OptList` (0.101) for EPEL-4 now that `perl-Params-Util` has reached EPEL-4 stable
 * Built `perl-Package-Generator` (0.100) for EPEL-4 now that `perl-Params-Util` has reached EPEL-4 stable

==== Local Packages ====

 * New package `perl-JSON` (2.50)
 * Updated `perl-Class-Inspector` to 1.25 and built it to install to Perl core directories rather than Perl vendor directories:
  * Update to `Module::Install::DSL` 1.00
  * Update copyright year
 * Updated `perl-JSON-PP` to conflict with `perl-JSON` < 2.50 ([[RedHatBugzilla:672764|Bug #672764]])
 * Updated `perl-Module-Build` to 0.3623:
  * Fixed bugs involving bootstrapping `configure_requires` prerequisites on older `CPANPLUS` clients or for either `CPAN`/`CPANPLUS` when using the compatibility `Makefile.PL`
  * Added diagnostic output when `configure_requires` are missing for the benefit of users doing manual installation
 * Updated `perl-PPIx-Regexp` to 0.017 and built it to install to Perl core directories rather than Perl vendor directories:
  * Add the `/a` modifier to `PPI::Regexp::Token::Modifiers`, legal only in the `(?:...)` construction
  * When parsing an interpolation from a replacement string (rather than a regular expression), take subscripts at face value rather than trying to disambiguate them from quantifiers and character classes, which they can't be in this context
