Hi security team, unfortunately there's an error in the sarge package: % perl -c /usr/share/perl5/Mail/Audit/MimeEntity.pm syntax error at /usr/share/perl5/Mail/Audit/MimeEntity.pm line 8, near "use MIME::Parser" /usr/share/perl5/Mail/Audit/MimeEntity.pm had compilation errors. ii libmail-audit-perl 2.1-5sarge1 Perl library for creating easy mail filters Don's patch in #344029 had a typo (missing semicolon). See #349838 for the fix. Apologies; we should have Cc'd the patch to security@ . -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
