[Bug 828173] [NEW] libdate-manip-perl has 6.05, a broken version
Public bug reported:
I recently updated my sever to 10.04.3, and got the latest libdate-
manip-perl, version 6.05
according to the package creator on Perl:
"""It is true that when I went to 6.xx, I tighted up the parsing a lot,
but the main thing I got rid of was stuff that really wasn't useful.
I DID unintentionally break support for '4pm', but this was added back
in in 6.06 (and we're up to 6.24 now, so that was actually quite a
while ago).
Try upgrading to the most recent version, and I suspect you'll get
what you want. If not, feel free to email me again.
"""
In effect parsing time from strings is broken in 6.05, and restored in
6.06.
There is no backport of libdate-manip-perl in lucid-backports
