Fedora Project
Patched curl in F-14 with an additional upstream fix for SIGSEGV of curl -O -J given more than one URL (Bug #723075) though due to issues with the test suite it took me 11 attempts to get it to build
Looked into updating perl-Spreadsheet-ParseExcel to 0.59 for Bug #731907 and found that it needed Digest::Perl::MD5, which isn't currently packaged in Fedora. It's supposed to replaceable by Digest::MD5, which is in Fedora but unfortunately Spreadsheet::ParseExcel uses private data from within Digest::Perl::MD5 rather than using the proper API so using Digest::MD5 doesn't work. I created a perl-Digest-Perl-MD5 package and Petr Sabata kindly reviewed it.
