I'd agree with the removal of  perl-Mail-SPF-Query, as has been
pointed out to me by Michael Mansour... "since it's already been
announced by the author that it will _never_ be updated again, since
as mentioned earlier, Mail::SPF follows RFC and should be migrated to
by anyone using Mail::SPF::Query."

This is cross posted to the SA list to see what comment it brings from
there. Hopefully some of the SA admins are on this list and I won't
have to re-cover the entire thread :-D

Kind regards

Nigel
