==== Fedora Project ====

Some fall-out from the great FedoraProject:Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild was that some of my packages didn't build successfully:

 * `gnome-libs` failed because the symbol `JPEG_LIB_VERSION` was undefined in the JPEG-reading code; this was due to the definition of the symbol moving from `jpeglib.h` to `jconfig.h` since `libjpeg-turbo` 1.0.90, and the `gnome-libs` code explicitly avoiding the inclusion (which normally happens implicitly within `jpeglib.h`) of `jconfig.h` due to it defining some symbols that clash with ones in `gnome-libs` itself; I fixed this by defining `JPEG_LIB_VERSION` manually if the definition wouldn't otherwise be visible:
 . {{{
# libjpeg-turbo >= 1.0.90 moves definition of JPEG_LIB_VERSION from jpeglib.h to jconfig.h
# which we explicitly avoid including for our own reasons, so we need help finding the definition
EXTRACTED_JPEG_LIB_VERSION=$(echo JPEG_LIB_VERSION | cpp -imacros jpeglib.h -P | awk 'NF > 0')
VISIBLE_JPEG_LIB_VERSION=$(echo JPEG_LIB_VERSION | cpp -DJCONFIG_INCLUDED -imacros jpeglib.h -P | awk 'NF > 0')
if [ "$VISIBLE_JPEG_LIB_VERSION" = "JPEG_LIB_VERSION" ]; then
	JPEG_EXTRA_DEFINE="-DJPEG_LIB_VERSION=$EXTRACTED_JPEG_LIB_VERSION"
fi
export CPPFLAGS="$(pkg-config --cflags libpng10) $JPEG_EXTRA_DEFINE"
}}}
 * `perl-Net-SSH-Perl` and `perl-Math-GMP` failed their documentation spell check tests because some words that were previously in the `en_US` dictionary in Fedora 14 and earlier releases are no longer there in Rawhide:
  * `decrypt`
  * `DES`
  * `MERCHANTABILITY`
  * `Probabilistically`
  * `subclasses`
  * `Tels`
  * `tels`
 . Not sure why some of them were ''ever'' included actually!
 * `perl-IO-Compress-Lzma` failed all of its test suite like this:
 . {{{
#     Failed test (t/000prereq.t at line 37)
#     Tried to use 'Compress::Raw::Lzma'.
#     Error:  Version Mismatch - Built with version 50000002, library used is version 50000012
# Compilation failed in require at (eval 3) line 2.
# BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at t/000prereq.t line 37.
# Looks like you failed 1 test of 3.
t/000prereq.t ............
Dubious, test returned 1 (wstat 256, 0x100)
Failed 1/3 subtests
}}}
 . This was actually a problem in `perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma`, which had originally been built using `xz` 5.0.0 but Rawhide now has `xz` 5.0.1; the soname is the same but the code explicitly checks that the version numbers match and the error above is the result. In order to head off problems like this in the future, I tweaked `perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma` to have an explicit versioned dependency on the version of `xz-libs` it was built against, and the broken dependency report will alert me to the need to rebuild it in future if I miss an update to `xz`. This is basically the same approach I used in `perl-BerkeleyDB` to address [[RedHatBugzilla:592209|Bug #592209]], which manifests itself in a very similar way. Having rebuilt `perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma` (now built against `xz` 5.0.1 of course), `perl-IO-Compress-Lzma` was able to build and run its test suite just fine.
 * `perl-Convert-TNEF`, which isn't actually my package, failed to build as a result of a recent update of my `perl-MIME-tools` package to 5.500, which no longer depends on `perl-IO-stringy` - `Convert::TNEF` requires `perl(IO::Wrap)`, which comes from `perl-IO-stringy`, but wasn't doing so explicitly so it no longer built; the simple fix was to add `perl(IO::Wrap)` as a build requirement.

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `gnome-libs` as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Compress-Raw-Lzma` as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Convert-TNEF` as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `xz` to remove the `URL` tag from `liblzma.pc` if we have have `pkgconfig` ≤ 0.15, which barfs when it sees it, and to drop the explicit dependency of the `devel` package on `pkgconfig` if `rpm` can auto-detect the requirement
 * Rebuilt `sendmail` for the [[FedoraProject:Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild]]
