Updated perl-Test-EOL to 1.5 in F-18 and Rawhide:
Properly fix Win32 (CPAN RT#76037)
Change default to searching for trailing whitespace from the current directory downwards (as tests are run from the top of a dist normally), rather than one directory above the test file, as then we don't work as expected if tests are in t/author or similar
Local Packages

Updated perl-Perl-Critic-Lax to 0.009:

I also needed to add patches to support building with old versions of ExtUtils::MakeMaker and Test::More on older distributions, as is common with Dist::Zilla-based releases

Updated perl-version to 0.9901:
Fix problem with short floating point alpha versions (e.g. 0.52_0) (CPAN RT#79259)

Wednesday 12th September 2012
Fedora Project

Monday 17th September 2012
Local Packages
Updated moin to 1.9.5
Updated perl-DateTime-TimeZone to 1.50:
In scalar context, DateTime::TimeZone->names_in_category returned an arrayref containing an arrayref, rather than just an arrayref (CPAN RT#76791)
The DateTime::TimeZone->names_in_category documentation claimed that it returned names based on the population of the zone, which is not true (CPAN RT#76792); note though that the DateTime::TimeZone->names_in_country method does preserve the order specified in the Olson database, which is sort of based on population and geography and is probably the best choice for presenting a list of names to end user

1.33 did not declare any prereqs (CPAN RT#79677)

doveadm copy/move: added optional user parameter to specify the source username; this allows easily copying mails between different users

Added mailbox_alias plugin, which allows creating mailbox aliases using symlinks
imapc storage: added imapc_max_idle_time setting to force activity on connection
- fts-solr: expunging multiple messages is now faster
- director: in some conditions director may have disconnected from another director (without logging about it), thinking it was sending invalid data
- imap: various fixes to listing mailboxes
- pop3-migration plugin: avoid disconnection from POP3 server due to idling
login processes crashed if there were a lot of local {} or remote {} settings blocks
Updated dovecot-pigeonhole to 0.3.3:
- sieve-refilter tool: improved man page documentation by explicitly specifying the syntax used for mailbox arguments
sieve: spamtest and virustest extensions: improved trace debugging of score calculation
- sieve: made error messages about exceeding the maximum number of actions more verbose
sieve tools: fixed problems with running as root: sievec and sieve-dump now ignore mail_uid and mail_gid settings when run as root

Updated city-fan.org-release to add debuginfo and source repositories

Updated perl-Net-SSLeay to 1.49 in F-18 and Rawhide:
Fixed problem where on some platforms test t/local/07_tcpecho.t would bail out if it could not bind port 1212; it now tries a number of ports to bind to until successful
- Improvements to unsigned casting
Improvements to Net::SSLeay::read to make it easier to use with non-blocking IO: it modifies Net::SSLeay::read() to return the result from SSL_read() as the second return value, if Net::SSLeay::read() is called in list context (its behaviour should be unchanged if called in scalar or void context)
Fixed a problem where t/local/kwalitee.t fails with Module::CPANTS::Analyse 0.86
- Fixed a number of typos
Fixed a compiler warning from compiling with gcc-4.4 and -Wall
Fixed problems with get_https4: documentation was wrong, $header_ref was not correctly set and $server_cert was not returned
Fixed a problem that could cause a Perl exception about no blength method on undef (CPAN RT#79309)
- Added documentation about how to mitigate various SSL/TLS vulnerabilities
SSL_MODE_* are now available as constants
Local Packages
Updated perl-Digest-SHA to 5.72:

Bugfix: $auto_literal = false did not work with {block} tags in child templates (Forum Topic 20581)

- Bugfix: resolving relative paths broke in some circumstances (Issue 114)
Bugfix: tag option flags and shorttag attributes did not work when rdel started with '=' (Forum Topic 22979)
