Package: libapache2-request-perl Version: 2.04-dev-1.bone1 Severity: grave Tags: patch Justification: renders package unusable
Upload support is seriously broken. The parser does not scan all input. Only on uploaded file can be retrieved making perl module Apache::Upload basicly useless. The problem is fixed upstream in 2.05-dev, but because of the mod_perl2 API changes this might be difficult to install. On the other hand, the problem is easy to fix by patching 2.04-dev in Sarge. Here's the patch from upstream SVN: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg00882.html It seems the return values (0/1) has just been mixed up in src/apreq_params.c Applying this small patch makes Apache::Upload usable again. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.11.12 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages libapache2-request-perl depends on: ii apache2-common 2.0.54-4 next generation, scalable, extenda ii libapache2-mod-perl2 1.999.21-1 Integration of perl with the Apach ii libapr0 2.0.54-4 the Apache Portable Runtime ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libdb4.2 4.2.52-18 Berkeley v4.2 Database Libraries [ ii libexpat1 1.95.8-3 XML parsing C library - runtime li ii libldap2 2.1.30-8 OpenLDAP libraries ii perl 5.8.4-8 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii perl-base [perlapi-5.8.4] 5.8.4-8 The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbis -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
