Bumped MCE dependency to 1.864
Updated python-paramiko to 2.7.0 in Rawhide:
Implement support for OpenSSH 6.5-style private key files (typically denoted as having 'BEGIN OPENSSH PRIVATE KEY' headers instead of PEM format's 'BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY' or similar); if you were getting any sort of weird auth error from "modern" keys generated on newer operating system releases (such as macOS Mojave), this is the first update to try (GH#602, GH#618, GH#1313, GH#1343)
Token expansion in 'ssh_config' used a different method of determining the local username ('$USER' environment variable), compared to what the (much older) client connection code does ('getpass.getuser', which includes '$USER' but may check other variables first, and is generally much more comprehensive); both modules now use 'getpass.getuser'
A couple of outright '~paramiko.config.SSHConfig' parse errors were previously represented as vanilla 'Exception' instances; as part of recent feature work a more specific exception class, '~paramiko.ssh_exception.ConfigParseError', has been created; it is now also used in those older spots, which is naturally backwards compatible
Implement support for the 'Match' keyword in 'ssh_config' files; previously, this keyword was simply ignored and keywords inside such blocks were treated as if they were part of the previous block (GH#717)
Note: this feature adds a new optional install dependency 'Invoke' (https://www.pyinvoke.org), for managing 'Match exec' subprocesses
Additional installation 'extras_require' "flavors" ('ed25519', 'invoke', and 'all') have been added to our packaging metadata
Paramiko's use of 'subprocess' for 'ProxyCommand' support is conditionally imported to prevent issues on limited interpreter platforms like Google Compute Engine; however, any resulting 'ImportError' was lost instead of preserved for raising (in the rare cases where a user tried leveraging 'ProxyCommand' in such an environment); this has been fixed
Perform deduplication of 'IdentityFile' contents during 'ssh_config' parsing; previously, if your config would result in the same value being encountered more than once, 'IdentityFile' would contain that many copies of the same string
Implement most 'canonical hostname' 'ssh_config' functionality ('CanonicalizeHostname', 'CanonicalDomains', 'CanonicalizeFallbackLocal', and 'CanonicalizeMaxDots'; 'CanonicalizePermittedCNAMEs' has not yet been implemented) - all were previously silently ignored (GH#897)
Explicitly document which ssh_config features we currently support; previously users just had to guess, which is simply no good
Add new convenience classmethod constructors to '~paramiko.config.SSHConfig': '~paramiko.config.SSHConfig.from_text', '~paramiko.config.SSHConfig.from_file', and '~paramiko.config.SSHConfig.from_path'; no more annoying two-step process!

Updated dovecot:
Updated dovecot to 2.3.9:
- Changed several event field names for consistency and to avoid conflicts in parent-child event relationships:
SMTP server command events: Renamed "name" to "cmd_name"
Events inheriting from a mailbox: Renamed "name" to "mailbox"
Server connection events have only "remote_ip", "remote_port", "local_ip" and "local_port"
Removed duplicate "client_ip", "ip" and "port"
Mail storage events: Removed "service" field; use "service:<name>" category instead
HTTP client connection events: Renamed "host" to "dest_host" and "port" to "dest_port"
auth: Drop Postfix socketmap support: it hasn't been working with recent Postfix versions for a while now
push-notification-lua: The "subject" field is now decoded to UTF8 instead of kept as MIME-encoded
push-notification-lua: Added new "from_address", "from_display_name", "to_address" and "to_display_name" fields; the display names are decoded to UTF8
Added various new fields to existing events; see http://doc.dovecot.net/admin_manual/list_of_events.html
Add lmtp_add_received_header setting; it can be used to prevent LMTP from adding "Received:" headers
doveadm: Support SSL/STARTTLS for proxied doveadm connections based on doveadm_ssl setting and proxy ssl/tls settings
Log filters support now "service:<name>", which matches all events for the given service; it can also be used as a category
lib: Use libunwind to get abort backtraces with function names where available
lmtp: When the LMTP proxy changes the username (from passdb lookup), add an appropriate ORCPT parameter
lmtp: Add lmtp_client_workarounds setting to implement workarounds for clients that send MAIL and RCPT commands with additional spaces before the path and for clients that omit <> brackets around the path; see example-config/conf.d/20-lmtp.conf
lda/lmtp: Invalid MAIL FROM addresses were rejected too aggressively; now mails from addresses with unicode characters are delivered, but their Return-Path header will be <> instead of the given MAIL FROM address
lmtp: The lmtp_hdr_delivery_address setting is ignored
imap: imap_command_finished event's "args" and "human_args" parameters were always empty
mbox: Seeking in zlib and bzip2 compressed input streams didn't work correctly
imap-hibernate: Process crashed when client got destroyed while it was attempted to be unhibernated, and the unhibernation fails
*-login: Proxying may have crashed if SSL handshake to the backend failed immediately; this was unlikely to happen in normal operation
*-login: If TLS handshake to upstream server failed during proxying, login process could crash due to invalid memory access
*-login: v2.3 regression: Using SASL authentication without initial response may have caused SSL connections to hang; this happened often at least with PHP's IMAP library
*-login: When login processes are flooded with authentication attempts, it starts logging errors about "Authentication server sent unknown id"; this is still expected, however, it also caused the login process to disconnect from auth server and potentially log some user's password in the error message
dict-sql: SQL prepared statements were not shared between sessions; this resulted in creating a lot of prepared statements, which was especially inefficient when using Cassandra backend with a lot of Cassandra nodes
auth: auth_request_finished event didn't have success=yes parameter set for successful authentications
auth: userdb dict - Trying to list users crashed
- submission: Service could be configured to allow anonymous authentication mechanism and anonymous user access
LAYOUT=index: Corrupted dovecot.list.index caused folder creation to panic
doveadm: HTTP server crashes if request target starts with double "/"
dsync: Remote dsync started hanging if the initial doveadm "dsync-server" command was sent in the same TCP packet as the following dsync handshake (v2.3.8 regression)
lib: Several "input streams" had a bug that in some rare situations might cause it to access freed memory, which could lead to crashes or corruption; the only currently known effect of this is that using zlib plugin with external mail attachments (mail_attachment_dir) could cause fetching the mail to return a few bytes of garbage data at the beginning of the header (note that the mail wasn't saved corrupted, but fetching it caused corrupted mail to be sent to the client)
lib-storage: If a mail only has quoted content, use the quoted text for generating message snippet (IMAP PREVIEW) instead of returning empty snippet
lib-storage: When vsize header was rebuilt, newly calculated message sizes were added to dovecot.index.cache instead of being directly saved into vsize records in dovecot.index
- lib: JSON generator was escaping UTF-8 characters unnecessarily
- Changed several event field names for consistency and to avoid conflicts in parent-child event relationships:
Updated pigeonhole to 0.5.9:
Added events for Sieve and ManageSieve, see https://doc.dovecot.org/admin_manual/list_of_events/#pigeonhole
Pigeonhole: Implement the Sieve "special-use" extension described in RFC 8579
duplicate: Test only compared the handles, which would cause different values to be cached as the same duplicate test; fix to also compare the actual hashes
imap_sieve_filter: IMAP FILTER command had various bugs in error handling; errors may have been duplicated for each email, errors may have been missing entirely, command tag and ERRORS/WARNINGS parameters were swapped
Updated schily to 2019.12.05

Updated python-paramiko to 2.7.1 in Rawhide:
The new-style private key format (added in 2.7.0) suffered from an unpadding bug that had been fixed earlier for Ed25519 (as that key type has always used the newer format); that fix has been refactored and applied to the base key class (GH#1567)

Updated perl-Cpanel-JSON-XS 4.18 in Rawhide:
Add new method ->type_all_string (GH#156); when type_all_string is set then the encode method produces stable, deterministic string types in the resulting JSON - this can be an alternative to Cpanel::JSON::XS::Type when having deterministic output is required but string JSON types are enough for any output
Move SvGETMAGIC() from encode_av() and encode_hv() to encode_sv() (GH#156)
Add Math::BigInt and Math::BigFloat as recommended dependencies (GH#157)
Took orphaned packages python-fluidity-sm and python-lexicon (dependencies of python-invoke, which is a dependency of python-paramiko, which is a package I actually care about)
