This was resolved in upstream commit b50e8880 (https://salsa.debian.org/debian/debmirror/-/commit/b50e8880a187ee5b9e1507201c0815dcd4baf63f) and released as part of version 1:2.28. This resolution is already available as part of the 1:2.33 merge included in Ubuntu Hirsute (21.04).
Considering this does not block execution and instead serves as a warning (as Perl simply assumes an empty/0-length initial string for the uninitialized value), this does not appear to directly warrant an SRU (no security vulnerability, no severe regression, no loss of user data, no changes in the environment). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1899498 Title: Variable $buf not initialized on 2.7 version To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/debmirror/+bug/1899498/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
