Fedora Project

  • Updated perl in F-16 to fix duplicate file inclusion in the main perl package of files belonging to the perl-threads, perl-threads-shared and perl-version packages, leading to potential conflicts with the dual-lived versions of those sub-packages (Bug #549306)

  • Updated perl-B-Hooks-EndOfScope to 0.11 in Rawhide (a minor efficiency improvement); I couldn't update F-17 because the Variable::Magic version there is too old

  • Updated perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib to 2.051 in Rawhide:

    • Fix bug in Compress::Raw::Zlib on 64-bit Windows (CPAN RT#75222)

  • Reviewed perl-XML-Rules for Bill Pemberton

Local Packages

  • Updated dovecot to 2.1.1:

    • dsync: if message with same GUID is saved multiple times in session, copy it instead of re-saving

    • acl plugin + autocreated mailboxes crashed when listing mailboxes

    • doveadm force-resync: don't skip autocreated mailboxes (especially INBOX)

    • If process runs out of fds, stop listening for new connections only temporarily, not permanently (avoids hangs with process_limit=1 services)

    • auth: passdb imap crashed for non-login authentication (e.g. smtp)

  • Updated perl-B-Hooks-EndOfScope to 0.11 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-Compress-Raw-Zlib to 2.051 as per the Fedora version

  • Updated perl-CPAN-Meta to 2.120530:

    • Dialed back perl prereq to 5.006

  • I updated the package to run the author tests too, adding the necessary build requirements
  • Updated perl-ExtUtils-CBuilder to 0.280205:

    • Refactored OS name mapping to use Perl::OSType

    • Appends CFLAGS and LDFLAGS environments instead of overriding

    • Reset ccflags on compilation for VMS

    • Fixed bug picking up ccflags from Config

    • Quotation style cleanup
