Updated perl-Crypt-DSA in EPEL-5, EPEL-6, F-18, F-19, F-20 and Rawhide to disable the fall back to using Data::Random if /dev/random is unavailable (Bug #743567, CPAN RT#71421, CVE-2011-3599)
It might seem that this would not affect Fedora since /dev/random is always available and so the fall back to Data::Random would never happen. However, if an application is confined using a MAC system such as SELinux then access to /dev/random could be denied by policy and the fall back would be triggered. Data::Random uses rand(), about which the perldoc says "rand() is not cryptographically secure. You should not rely on it in security-sensitive situations." In the case of DSA, this is even worse. Using improperly secure randomness sources can compromise the signing key upon signature of a message - see: http://rdist.root.org/2010/11/19/dsa-requirements-for-random-k-value/

Import stopwords from Pod::Wordlist::hanekomu (except names)
This module uses a lot of "modern" features in its test suite, but its core functionality works fine on old distributions; rather than take my usual approach and try to patch out the modern-isms in the test suite, I decided in this case to just bundle sufficiently recent copies of Test::More/Test::Builder/File::Temp for use by the test suite (only), which greatly simplified getting it working all the way back to FC-3

Updated perl-Test-Warnings to 0.009 in F-20 and Rawhide:
- Fixed error in synopsis (we do not export anything by default)
- A caveat added to the documentation regarding embedding warning checks inside another sub
':no_end_test' now also covers side effects of done_testing, as well as END blocks, making it possible to use the warning(s) subs without having an end warning test while using done_testing (necessary when combining with the 'if' pragma)
END tests will not be added by a subsequent use of Test::Warnings if a previous one passed ':no_end_test'

Fixed broken "make dist" variants
Added buffer and linkage data directions (future expansion for VHDL) in FST and gtkwave

- Fixed ordering of static FSDB libraries for when dynamic ones are not present
Added direction filters to SST name filter search, i.e. adding +I+, +O+, +IO+, +B+, or +L+ before the regular expression adds additional filtering criteria (direction filters are case-insensitive)
- Relax FSDB loader to allow VHDL and mixed-language files
Added VHDL hierarchy types to FST, internal VCD loaders and also vcdfst/fst2vcd
Added in VHDL to FST (which will also allow other languages): gtkwave can process these types (e.g., signal + std_ulogic), but there are currently no simulators supporting them
Updated perl-MIME-Types to 2.04 in F-20 and Rawhide:
Fix one more localize $_ in ::Types::_read_db() (CPAN RT#87856)
Updated perl-Path-Tiny to 0.033 in F-20 and Rawhide:
Perl on BSD may not support locking on an NFS filesystem: if this is detected, Path::Tiny warns and continues in an unsafe mode (the 'flock' warning category may be fatalized to die instead)
Added 'iterator' example showing defaults
Local Packages
Updated gtkwave to 3.3.49 as per the Fedora version
Updated perl-autodie to 2.21:
Speed/Internal: Through the magic of globally reuseable core leak trampolines, autodie is even faster when used across multiple packages
- Speed/Internal: Caches used for keeping track of fatalised subroutines are faster and leaner
- Speed/Internal: Core subroutine wrappers are now lazily compiled
Speed/Internal: Using autodie while autodie is already in effect is now faster and more efficient
Internal: $" and $! are no longer arbitrarily messed with for no reason via autodie (they're still messed with when using Fatal)
Speed/Internal: The ':all' tag hierarchy is expanded immediately, in an efficient fashion
- Internal: Numerous minor clean-ups, dead variables removed, typos fixed
Speed/Internal: import() and _make_fatal() cache more aggressively, reducing CPU overhead
Test: Compatibility with Carp 1.32 (CPAN RT#88076)
Updated perl-MIME-Types to 2.04 as per the Fedora version

- Clean up some error messages slightly
Updated perl-NetAddr-IP to 4.070 in git only because it's unbuildable in F-20 and Rawhide because of a missing dependency of perl(version) in the perl-ExtUtils-MakeMaker package (Bug #1007755):
- Yet another documention error fixed
Add new6FFFF, RFC4291 compliant ipv4->ipV6 new in Lite.pm
Updated perl-ParseUtil-Domain to 2.30 in F-20 and Rawhide at last, fixing the failure to build with Perl 5.18 (Bug #992709); this only became possible after my perl-perl5i package passed review earlier this week
Updated trac-spamfilter-plugin in F-19, F-20 and Rawhide to the current upstream svn version (no changes in the last 4 months), which fixes the broken plugin administrative panels

The wordlist is now a sharedir file
Accessing %Pod::Wordlist::Wordlist directly is now deprecated
Due to some compatibility issues with old Perl versions in Class-Tiny and File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir, I've only built the new perl-File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir and perl-Pod-Spell versions for F-19, F-20 and Rawhide for now

Updated perl-File-ShareDir-ProjectDistDir (version 0.4.4, as used for all releases prior to Fedora 19 as later versions' dependencies can't be satisfied on earlier Fedoras or RHEL without replacing modules bundled with the main perl package) to fix a problem that would manifest when it was used on Fedora 12 or earlier, e.g. when running File::pushd's author tests with Pod::Spell 1.07 (which has its own issues):

File::ShareDir::ProjectDistDir searched upwards from the /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/Pod/ directory and found a lib directory parallel to a share directory under /usr and presumed that this was a "development" environment and that Pod::Spell's word list should be under /usr/share whereas it was actually installed at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.5/auto/share/dist/Pod-Spell/wordlist. To fix this, I used this patch to add a further heuristic that any path under /usr was a production environment:

Updated Makefile.PL logic to support PERL_NO_HIGHLANDER
Dropped ExtUtils::MakeMaker configure_requires dependency to 6.17
Updated perl-CPAN-Meta-Requirements to 2.125:

- Rebuild to get a newer compile test that may work on 5.6.x
I have reinstated support for old distributions by bundling a copy of Test::More 0.96 to use for the test suite if the system one is too old

Updated perl-Path-Tiny to 0.035 in F-20 and Rawhide:
Exceptions are now Path::Tiny::Error objects, not autodie exceptions; this removes the last dependency on autodie, which allows us to support Perls as far back as v5.8.1
BSD/NFS flock fix was not backwards compatible before v5.14; this fixes it harder
Lowered ExtUtils::MakeMaker configure_requires version to 6.17
Fixed flock warning on BSD that was broken with the autodie removal; now also applies to all BSD flavours
Unfortunately the dropping of the dependency on autodie does not help us to build Path::Tiny on anything older than F-19 as there's still a requirement on a very recent version (3.40) of File::Spec
Updated perl-Test-Fatal to 0.013 in F-20 and Rawhide:
- Rebuild to get a newer compile test that may work on 5.6.x
Updated perl-Test-Portability-Files to 0.06 in F-18, F-19, F-20, Rawhide, EPEL-5 and EPEL-6:

Updated perl-Perl-Critic to 1.119 in F-20 and Rawhide:
Tests were failing with Config::Tiny 2.17 or later, due to a change in the error messages produced by that module (CPAN RT#88679, CPAN RT#88889, https://github.com/Perl-Critic/Perl-Critic/pull/16)

New method: folders_hash()
Deprecate: xlist_folders(), xlist()
Updated perl-Pod-Spell to 1.09, with a number of fixes from upstream to address punctuation-stripping and encoding issues (GH #9 and GH #11):
Stopwords with 's are learned without 's to match how they are checked
Leading and trailing punctuation is entirely stripped since the spell checker won't care anyway; trailing periods are not stripped as they might be abbreviations ("Ph.D."), but such words are checked against the stoplist both with and without trailing periods to account for abbreviations and words at the end of a sentence
Saturday 28th September 2013
Fedora Project
Updated perl-Pod-Spell to 1.10 in Rawhide:
Added 'no_wide_chars' option to strip words with such characters from the output; this may help spell-checkers that can't cope with UTF-8
Improved punctuation stripping algorithm for better word isolation (example C<< "hello". >> now is found as "hello")
Strips all words that do not have at least one \w character as a spell-checker isn't likely to do anything useful with them
- Added recommendations for dealing with character encoding
Built perl-Perl-OSType (1.006) in Rawhide now that Pod::Spell was fixed
Local Packages
Updated perl-Path-IsDev to 0.4.0:
- Now has a system to indicate negative heuristics, to mark given directories as "not dev", which cause other positive heuristics to be ignored
One basic negative heuristic added, 'IsDev::IgnoreFile'
- Basic Negative heuristic comes standard with the basic set
