=== Tuesday 26th April 2011 ===

==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-Test-Fatal` to 0.005 in F-15 and Rawhide:
  * `success` blocks now allow trailing blocks like `finally`, `catch`, etc.
  * Fix the logic that picks tests for 5.13.1+

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `fetchyahoo` to 2.14.1:
  * Update for new Yahoo Mail Beta
 * Updated `libidn` to 1.21:
  * `build`/`gettext`: Demand `gettext` ≥ 0.18.1 in order to get newer `m4` files; the old `m4` files associated with 0.17 caused problems on Solaris (http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.gnulib.bugs/25522)
  * `build`: Improve MinGW cross-compile `makefile`; see `win32/libidn4win.mk`
  * `build`: Visual Studio files fixed to define `LIBIDN_BUILDING`
 * Updated `moin` to create and own the `/usr/share/moin/htdocs` directory as a placeholder for theme data (thanks to Sean P. Kane for the bug report)
 * Updated `perl-DateTime` to update `DateTime` to 0.68:
  * The tests for `%N` in the last release relied on the vagaries of floating point maths on a 64-bit system; now, the `from_epoch()` method just uses string operations to separate the epoch into an integer value and a mantissa, which avoids floating point insanity ([[CPAN:67736|CPAN RT#67736]])
 . and update `DateTime::TimeZone` to 1.34:
  * Based on version 2011g of the Olson database
  * Includes changes for Egypt
  * `DateTime::TimeZone::Floating` and `DateTime::TimeZone::UTC` are now singletons, since their internal state never changes
 . Now that `Test::Spelling` is available for all supported releases, I enabled it for the RHL-9/RHEL-3 builds and had to update the patch for words missing from the system dictionaries to add some extra words
 * Updated `perl-Eval-Closure` to 0.05:
  * Make sure `Perl::Tidy` doesn't look at `@ARGV`
 * Updated `perl-Filter` to 1.38:
  * Bumped all versions to match the distribution version number, as having module versions different from distribution version results in dependency confusion ([[CPAN:67655|CPAN RT#67655]])
  * Fix `decrypt` to work with Perl 5.14 ([[CPAN:67656|CPAN RT#67656]])
  * Update the `Filter-Simple` URL ([[CPAN:49778|CPAN RT#49778]])
 . I also removed some doc-file dependencies whilst I was doing this update
 * Updated `perl-Test-Fatal` to 0.005 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Test-Spelling` to 0.12:
  * Best Practical has taken over maintainership of this module
  * Try various spell-check programs instead of hard-coding the ancient `spell` ([[CPAN:56483|CPAN RT#56483]])
  * Remove temporary files more aggressively ([[CPAN:41586|CPAN RT#41586]]) - fixed by not creating them at all - instead we now use `IPC::Open3`
  * Remove suggestion to use broken `aspell -l` ([[CPAN:28967|CPAN RT#28967]])
  * Add `set_pod_file_filter` for skipping translations, etc. ([[CPAN:63755|CPAN RT#63755]])
  * Skip tests in `all_pod_files_spelling_ok` if there is no working spell-checker
  * Provide a `has_working_spellchecker` so you can skip your own tests if there's no working spell-checker
  * Switch to `Module::Install`
  * Rewrite and modernize a lot of the documentation
  * Decruftify code, such as by using `Exporter` and lexical filehandles
  * Support `.plx` files
 . As there is no longer a requirement for `File::Temp` ≥ 0.14, this release can run on Perl 5.8.0 and hence all of my supported distributions
 . For distributions where `hunspell` is preferred, I added a patch to favour `hunspell` over the other spellers so that `spell` or `aspell` wouldn't be used if installed, as that would lead to having different results depending on which packages were installed
 * Updated `perl-Devel-StackTrace`, `perl-Moose`, `perl-Params-Validate`, `perl-Test-LeakTrace` and `perl-Test-Requires` to reflect that `Test::Spelling` is available for all releases and to test the new version of that module (and also `Eval::Closure` and `Test::Fatal` in the case of `perl-Moose`)
