Uploaded perl 5.004.04-5 (source i386) to master
-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I've uploaded the following to master's Incoming. As always it is
available at: ftp://ftp.daft.com/pub/debian/perl*.
Several things of note:
1. I changed MM_Unix.pm so that those who build XS extensions for Perl
will now have dependency information in their shared libraries.
2. This includes the security fix for /tmp races.
3. This closes most of the Perl related bugs and all of the grave,
critical, and important ones.
4. Another upload is planned; this one was mainly to cover the first two
points.

Architecture: source i386
Version: 5.004.04-5
Distribution: unstable
Urgency: low
Maintainer: Darren Stalder <torin@daft.com>

perl-base - The Pathologically Eclectic Rubbish Lister
perl-debug - View internals of Perl and debug Perl itself.
perl-suid - Runs setuid Perl scripts.
Changes:
perl (5.004.04-5) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Add copyright file to perl-base since it makes it comply with the
standards and doesn't take up much space. (Fixes Bug #19384)
* Added files to base so that dpkg-ftp is fully supported. (Actually in
-4, but I forgot to mention it.) (Fixes Bug #16134)
* Added even more files to base so that libnet is fully supported.
(Fixes Bug #18338, #18593)
* Remove /usr/lib/perl5/DynaLoader.pm - yet another file left over from
disk install. (Fixes Bug #17970, #18823)
* Specify -DSTUCT_TM_HASZONE to keep POSIX from dumping core. (Fixes
Bug #17393)
* debugperl and suidperl now have manpages that are symbolic links to
perl(1p). I debated linking debugperl(1p) to perlrun(1p) and
suidperl(1p) to perlsec(1p) but didn't think that was appropriate.
(Fixes Bugs #6295, #6330, #9847, #9995, #10102).
* Changed description of perldebug to say that it shows internals of
Perl and helps debug Perl. (Fixes Bug #17547).
* Changed the permissions on suidperl to give group and world read
access. It makes no sense to restrict read access when anyone can get
a copy of off CPAN.
* Also registered suidperl with suidmanager. (Fixes Bug #15702)
* Remove the execute permission and use strip --strip-unneeded on all
the .so's. (Fixes #5100, #5124, #6328, #6903)
* Sym-Link find2perl.1p.gz and pod2latex.1p.gz to undocumented.7.gz until
I can write something or it's provided. Sym-Link pod2text.1p.gz to
Pod::Text.3pm.gz. (Fixes #6328)
* Sym-link /usr/doc/perl/changelog to /usr/doc/perl/Changes so that the
latest upstream changes file has the proper name.
* Tell perl_archive in ExtUtils::MM_Unix to return -lc so that the
shared libraries built with MakeMaker have libc dependency information
embedded in them. Note that if the module specifies it's own
libraries, those will come after the -lc. If this is a problem, the
module should specify -lc in its library list.
* Use mkstemp to avoid security/dos race conditions in /tmp.
