Full-Featured POP and IMAP Mail Retrieval Daemon

Edit Package fetchmail

Fetchmail is a robust and well-documented remote mail retrieval and
forwarding utility intended to be used over on-demand TCP/IP links
(such as SLIP or PPP connections).

Fetchmail retrieves mail from remote mail servers and forwards it to
your local machine's delivery system, so it can be read by normal mail
user agents, such as mutt, elm, pine, (x)emacs/gnus, or mailx.

fetchmailconf, an interactive GUI configurator suitable for end-users,
is included in the fetchmailconf package.

- Update fetchmail.keyring file
- Use %{_prefix}/lib instead of %{_libexecdir}

- update to 6.4.8:
  * Add a test program fm_realpath, and a t.realpath script, neither to be
    installed. These will test resolution of the current working directory.
  * TRANSLATION UPDATES
  * Plug memory leaks when parts of the configuration (defaults, rcfile, command 
    line) override one another.
  * fetchmail terminated the placeholder command string too late and included
    garbage from the heap at the end of the string. Workaround: don't use place-
    holders %h or %p in the --plugin string. Bug added in 6.4.0 when merging
    Gitlab merge request !5 in order to fix an input buffer overrun.
    Faulty commit 418cda65f752e367fa663fd13884a45fcbc39ddd.
  * Fetchmail now checks for errors when trying to read the .idfile
  * Fetchmail's error messages that reports that the defaults entry isn't the 
    first was made more precise. It could be misleading if there was a poll or
    skip statement before the defaults.
  * Fetchmail documentation was updated to require OpenSSL 1.1.1.
    OpenSSL 1.0.2 reached End Of Life status at the end of the year 2019.
    Fetchmail will tolerate, but warn about, 1.0.2 for now on the assumption that 
    distributors backport security fixes as the need arises.
    Fetchmail will also warn if another SSL library that is API-compatible
    with OpenSSL lacks TLS v1.3 support.
  * If the trust anchor is missing, fetchmail refers the user to README.SSL.
  * The AC_DECLS(getenv) check was removed, its only user was broken and not 
    accounting for that AC_DECLS always defines HAVE_DECL_... to 0 or 1, so
    fetchmail never declared a missing getenv() symbol (it was testing with 
    #ifdef).  Remove the backup declaration. getenv is mandated by SUSv2 anyways.
  * fetchmailconf now supports Python 3 and currently requires the "future"
