Package: bastille
Version: 1:3.0.9-13
Severity: serious
Tags: patch
The script "/usr/sbin/bastille" is not able to compute
PERL_VERSION correctly, leaving the variable empty
on system with mixed testing-unstable. The implemented
commmand pipe chain is broken and amateurish!
A functional patch is herewith contibuted.
Regards,
Mats Erik Andersson, DM
