==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-Coro` to 6.05:
  * ''Blush:'' `condvar` values would not be propagated from `send` to `recv` any more
  * Use exponential increase for the `readline` buffer length in `Coro::Handle`; also reduce initial allocation to 1020 from 4096 bytes
 * Updated `perl-ExtUtils-ParseXS` to 3.02, except for RHL-9 and RHEL-3 since 3.x now require `perl` ≥ 5.8.1:
  * Major refactoring of the whole code base; it finally runs under '`use strict`' for the first time!
  * Typemaps can now be embedded into `XS` code using a here-doc like syntax and the new "`TYPEMAP:`" `XS` keyword
  * Move `typemap` handling code to `ExtUtils::Typemaps` with full object-oriented goodness
  * Check API compatibility when loading `XS` modules using the `XS_APIVERSION_BOOTCHECK` macro if on a new-enough `perl`
  * Fixed compiler warnings in `XS`
  * Spell-check
  * Define `PERL_UNUSED_ARG` for pre-3.8.9 `perl`s, which should fix the tests
  * Add a check to `Makefile.PL` that scans `@INC` to determine whether the new `xsubpp` will be shadowed by another, existing `xsubpp` and warn the user vehemently
  * Add some diagnostics when `xsubpp` fails to load a current-enough version of `ExtUtils::ParseXS`
  * Patches from [[CPAN:53938|CPAN RT#53938]], [[CPAN:61908|CPAN RT#61908]], attempts to fix `Win32` problems
  * Require `perl` 5.8.1
 . I excluded `/usr/bin/xsubpp` and its manpage from the package for the time being as they would conflict with the main `perl` or `perl-devel` packages ([[RedHatBugzilla:728393|Bug #728393]])
 * Updated `perl-HTML-SimpleLinkExtor` to 1.25:
  * Fix `clear_links` so it actually clears the links
  * Convert most tests to use `subtest` and `Test::More` 0.96
  * Clean-ups for the move to [[https://github.com/briandfoy/html-simplelinkextor|Github]]
 . I added a patch to support building with `Test::More` versions as old as 0.47 on RHL-9; that's the oldest I tried
