Programming Lang: Perl
Description : Make temporary filename from template
File::MkTemp and File::MkTempO provides functions to create unique strings
for use as file/directory names based on an user specified template.
The package would be very useful for Nagios/Icinga-Installations
using the optional Kerberos-Check-Plugin from
http://exchange.nagios.org/directory/Plugins/Security/check_krb5/details
This plugin is implemented in Perl and needs File::MkTemp which
is not in Debian yet.
As this is a fairly simple package I intend to maintain it by
myself for a start. Joining the Debian Perl Group would be an
option for later.

Thanks both of you for pointing that out. Sorry, I never bothered
to look into these details. It was in fact trivial to patch the
nagios plugin.
I guess it makes no sense to package the perl module, so I'm closing
this bug. Thanks again!
Regards,
Raoul
