Description Malte S. Stretz 2005-12-18 11:51:00 UTC
There's a new version of Net::Server on CPAN which fixes a few stupidities like

mss@otherland ~/tmp/mobotix/mxproxy $ ./mxproxy --port 8008
Can't use string ("8008") as a SCALAR ref while "strict refs" in use at /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.6/Net/Server.pm line 1145.

A simple version bump of the package works fine.  The ~masked version 0.88 should not be marked stable as it broke some taint stuff according to the changelog:

0.90   Dec 05 2005
        - Make HUP work correctly on Multiplex server.
        - Allow socket files to cleanup correctly.
        - Allow Net::Server::Daemonize to function properly in Taint
          mode again (broken in .88).
        - Add ->commandline method to allow for getting and setting
          the commandline for use during a HUP.  This is to allow for
          untainting as necessary.
        - Add ->can_read_hook (see the documentation) to allow for
          processing of arbitrary handles in accept_multi_port.

0.89   Nov 22 2005
        - Added SSL_passwd_cb to Proto/SSL.pm (Irving A. Bermudez S.)
        - Fix rt #13450 which is caused by broken POSIX::setuid on
          perl 5.8.0 on RedHat 9.0.
        - Allow for graceful skipping if a port is configured twice in
          the configuration file.
        - Allow tests that can pass to pass on Win32 (skip those that cannot)
        - Allow "-" in user names. (Carl Lewis)
        - Add Reuse = 1 to Proto::UDP. (Slaven Rezic)
        - Allow for udp_broadcast setting in Proto::UDP. (Tim Watt)
        - Add bug note to Proto::SSL (Christopher A Bongaarts)
        - setsid property is now boolean rather than checking definedness.
        - Command line parameters override conf file parameters.
        - Store command line a little better in preparation for HUP.
        - Allow for cleaner HUP and better error if process already running.
