Hello, I am a Mageia (fork of Mandriva) tester and we have currently in our Cauldron release, being the working version of Mageia 2, the latest version of perl being perl-5.14.
But now we see a warning when starting shorewall installed from shorewall-4.4.20.2-1.mga2.noarch.rpm: Compiling... Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated at /usr/share/shorewall/Shorewall/Config.pm line 3477. Use of qw(...) as parentheses is deprecated at /usr/share/shorewall/Shorewall/Config.pm line 3682.

Shorewall configuration compiled to /var/lib/shorewall/.restart Restarting Shorewall... The words seems to indicate this is harmless from the security point of view, and probably a warning to shorewall developers that with future versions of perl the scripting in sw needs adapting to such perl. Can you please confirm our view? Shouuld we raise a ticket on shorewall's trac?
