=== Monday 21st December 2020 ===

==== Fedora Project ====

 * Orphaned `trac-accountmanager-plugin` and `trac-spamfilter-plugin` since they can't even compile against `trac` 1.5 in Rawhide, and I've abandoned use of `trac` myself anyway since I couldn't get it to work with my subversion repository after updating to Fedora 33
 * Updated `perl-Array-Compare` to 3.0.8 in Rawhide:
  * Only support versions 5.10+
 * Updated `perl-MetaCPAN-Client` to 2.029000 in Rawhide:
  * Added `checksum_sha256` and `checksum_md5` fields support ([[https://github.com/metacpan/metacpan-client/pull/110|GH#110]])
  * Clean up old files

==== Local Packages ====

 * Updated `perl-Array-Compare` to 3.0.8 as per the Fedora version

 * Updated `perl-Convert-UUlib` to 1.8:
  * No bugfixes in this release due to lack of known bugs, but the major changes in this release might have introduced new bugs, so watch out
  * Update large decoder example to disable `OPT_AUTOCHK` and use `Smerge -1`
  * Some micro-optimizations
   * Avoid costly string comparisons by comparing hashes when inserting items, which speeds up insertion by a constant factor
   * Improve `uulist` (and other) structure layout and size
   * Reverse the order of file list items, which heuristically improves match speed with large usenet file lists
   * Use `getc` instead of `fgetc`, which makes no difference on gnu/linux
   * Clean up `_FP` symbol names not to start with an underscore
   * Use `feof_unlocked` and `ferror_unlocked`
   * Implement a faster ASCII-only `strnicmp`
  * Miscellaneous very minor code improvements
   * Remove quite a bit of pre-posix/dos/etc. cruft
   * Use `flockfile`, if available, for a potential but small speed gain
   * Speed up inner `yenc` decoder loop
   * Kentnl said that this module should no longer claim to be a simple interface to `uulib`, as the bundled copy is now better maintained than the original upstream library
 * Updated `perl-MetaCPAN-Client` to 2.029000 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Module-CoreList` to 5.20201220:
  * Updated for v5.33.5
