=== Tuesday 14th June 2016 ===

==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-Event` to 1.26 in Rawhide:
  * Fix documentation typos
 * Updated `perl-Hash-Util-FieldHash-Compat` to 0.11 in Rawhide:
  * Be gentle to older toolchains by avoiding the use of `Module::Metadata` in configure-requires ([[CPAN:115310|CPAN RT#115310]])
 * Updated `perl-Test-Simple` to 1.302026 in Rawhide:
  * Do not fail if `Test2::API::Breakage` cannot load (rare 5.10.0 issue)
  * Potential fix for `t/Legacy/Regression/637.t`
  * Make `t/Legacy/Regression/637.t` `AUTHOR_TESTING` for now
  * Add `Generic` event type
  * Make sure enabling culling/shm sets `pid` and `tid` (fix [[https://github.com/Test-More/test-more/issues/679|GH#679]])

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-Event` to 1.26 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Hash-Util-FieldHash-Compat` to 0.11 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Term-ReadLine-Gnu` to 1.34:
  * Improve UTF-8 handling
   * UTF-8 decoding is done at the interface between Perl and XS; this makes it possible for UTF-8 strings to be read from the GNU Readline Library functions and variables
   * Add `enableUTF8()` method
   * UTF-8 support is enabled when `STDIN` is in UTF-8 by the `-C` command-line switch, or `PERL_UNICODE` environment variable, or `IN` file handle has `utf8` IO layer, or `-enableUTF8` method is called
   * Pop IO layer only when `stdio` layer is pushed on `utf8` layer to support Perl 5.8.x
  * `rl_save_state()`, `rl_restore_state()`, `history_get_history_state()` and `history_set_history_state()` are finally implemented
  * Update `RL_STATE_*` definitions
  * Fix `rl_readline_state` and `history_length` variable to be writeable
  * Fix `rl_completion_quote_character` and `rl_completion_found_quote` variable to be read-only
  * Update POD document
  * `t/*.t`: Improve and use `Test::More`
  * `t/utf8_binary.t`, `t/utf8_text.t`:
   * Use `en_US.UTF-8` instead of `en_US.utf8` for locale
   * Force the GNU Readline Library `8bit`
   * Add variable access test, IO layer check, verbose mode, etc.
   * Use camel characters instead of Japanese kanji characters
  * `t/utf8_binary.t`: Skip when `PERL_UNICODE` is set ([[CPAN:114185|CPAN RT#114185]])
  * `t/utf8.txt`: Use camel characters instead of Japanese kanji characters
  * `t/callback.t`: Update comments and code clean-up
  * Use some modern Perl features (but still in 5.8 era)
   * Use file handle references
   * Define export tags
   * Comment out '`use vars`' for subroutine name alias
  * `Gnu.pm`, `t/utf8_text.t`: Fix version checks for perl 5.10.0
  * `t/utf8_text.t`: Fix the number of skip for systems that do not support the `en_US.UTF-8` locale
  * `Gnu.pm`: Delete old formatted '`use VERSION`'
  * `ppport.h`: Update from version 1.0007 to version 3.31
  * `t/utf8_text.t`: Fix for the fail when `PERL_UNICODE` environment variable is set
 . I had to add a patch for the `t/utf8_binary.t` and `t/utf8_text.t` tests as Red Hat/Fedora versions of Perl 5.8.8 behave more like as expected for Perl 5.10 onwards in these tests, possibly due to patching of perl for UTF8 issues
