* Don't build mime-codecs any longer, due to several grave issues with
  the code. Instead, document how people may use the perl one liners in
  VM, thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor.
* Bug fix: "mime-codecs should be dropped", thanks to Manoj Srivastava
  done. (Closes: #329683).
* Bug fix: "mime-codecs: base64-decode fails to properly decode many
  valid base64-encoded files", thanks to Daniel Kahn Gillmor. Instead of
  trying out the patch provided (thanks for that, it was appreciated), I
  decided to instead drop the mime-codecs package entirely, since the
  perl one liners can easily replace them -- and these modules are
  already in perl, an essential package. (fixes: #338115).
* Bug fix: "mime-codecs: please support [file name] and [-o
  outputfile]", thanks to Martin Michlmayr. We no longer ship
  mime-codecs. (fixes: #213443).
* Bug fix: "vm: Skip byte-compilation when already done", thanks to
  Peter S Galbraith (Closes: #338559).
