Local Packages

Updated perl-Email-Address to 1.893:
- Reject any non-ASCII content in strings
Updated perl-Version-Requirements to 0.101021:
- Version::Requirements is now deprecated (use CPAN::Meta::Requirements, which is a drop-in replacement)
Updated perl-YAML to 0.78:
- Apply patch from ANDK++ to deal with B::Deparse changes
The changes manage to tickle Perl RT#35857 in B::Deparse, which affects old distributions (FC-5, RHEL-5 and earlier releases):
