MailScanner is also affected (as is any 3rd party perl script that has use Digest::SHA1; in it)
MailScanner recommend the installation of the debian package http://www.mailscanner.info/ubuntu.html but that is no longer possible because it fails out on the missing dep. Using the manual deb from Gabriel in #9 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdigest- sha1-perl/+bug/993648/comments/9 does solve the dependency problem. It strikes me as absurd that Ubuntu maintainers might suggest Digest::SHA is a drop in replacement for Digest::SHA1 - it is not. Are Ubuntu offering to do fix up all 3rd party code that uses Digest::$type"->new ? (which needs ::SHA1 and doesn't work in ::SHA). The common method would be Digest->new($type) but not all code out there uses that. ** Changed in: libdigest-sha1-perl (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Debian Perl Group, which is subscribed to libdigest-sha1-perl in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/993648 Title: libdigest-sha1-perl package is not in Ubuntu 12.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/libdigest-sha1-perl/+bug/993648/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~pkg-perl-maintainers Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~pkg-perl-maintainers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
