=== Friday 2nd September 2016 ===

==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-CPAN-Meta` to 2.150010 in Rawhide, obsoleting `perl-Parse-CPAN-Meta` which is now retired
 . Added:
  * Merged `Parse::CPAN::Meta` 1.4420 into this distribution
 . Fixed:
  * `CPAN::Meta::Prereqs` now fully accepts phases and types starting with '`x_`'; new '`phases`' and '`types_in`' interfaces have been added
  * No longer relies on JSON backend for data structure cloning; this is much faster than using `JSON::PP`
  * The cloning routine would raise an error on expected types when it previously would stringify; the old behaviour is restored
  * Fixed used of `Encode` in `Parse::CPAN::Meta::load_json_string` (cherry picked from `Parse::CPAN::Meta` 1.4422)
  * Added "`use warnings`" to `Parse::CPAN::Meta`
  * The YAML and JSON backend variables are ignored when building/testing the perl core itself, where non-core backends are not yet installed
 . Tests:
  * The '`extra_mappings`' feature for meta merging is now tested and documented
  * During tests, delete new environment variables added by `Parse::CPAN::Meta` 1.4418
 . Spec:
  * Clarifies acceptable values for booleans
  * Cleaned up text and links of historical specs
 * Updated `perl-ExtUtils-Helpers` to 0.025 in Rawhide:
  * Make `split_like_shell` always unixy
  * Remove `Module::Load` dependency
  * Remove `done_testing`; it requires `Test::More` 0.88
 . I stopped shipping the VMS- and Windows-specific helper packages in order to avoid the dependencies they may pull in
 * Updated `perl-MCE` to 1.805 in F-25 and Rawhide:
  * Fixed bug in `MCE::Queue` ([[https://github.com/marioroy/mce-perl/pull/4|GH#4]])
  * Improved support for running `MCE` with `Tk`; added `Tk` demonstrations to `MCE::Examples`

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-ExtUtils-Helpers` to 0.025 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Mail-Mbox-MessageParser` (1.5105) `perl-Mail-SPF-Test` (1.001), `perl-Mail-Sendmail` (0.79) to build-require `perl-generators` for proper dependency generation
 * Removed long-unmaintained packages `perl-Mail-SPF-Query` and `sendmail-milter-spf` from the repository and stop building them for new distributions
 * Updated `perl-MCE` to 1.805 as per the Fedora version
