Created attachment 902259 [details, diff] patch to make Amanda 3.5.4 work with perl 5.40 Perl 5.40 makes a few breaking changes and Amanda needs to be patched to work with it. I've run across two bugs so far (one a fatal error, the other just a warning) but I wouldn't be surprised if there are more waiting in parts of Amanda I haven't used yet since updating perl on my system. I've reported the bugs I've found upstream. Details of the two bugs I've found are listed there: https://github.com/zmanda/amanda/issues/262 Hopefully the Amanda maintainers will release an updated version to work with the newer version of perl. For now I've patched my copy of Amanda 3.64 to make it run. I haven't looked at 3.5.1 but I imagine the same patch is likely to work. I've attached a copy of my patch. I'll upload additional patches if I find anything else that needs fixing.
