Package: libimage-info-perl
Version: 1.16-1
Severity: minor

Certain TIFF files cause TIFF.pm to spit out quite a few warnings
(50-100+ lines per image). Our test TIFFs are created with PhotoShop 8.0
(8.0x119) and generate these warnings:
Use of uninitialized value in string ne at
/usr/share/perl5/Image/Info/TIFF.pm line 73.

Turning on other Photoshop file save options generate other warnings as
well:
Use of uninitialized value in seek at
/usr/share/perl5/Image/Info/TIFF.pm line 112.

Use of uninitialized value in pack at
/usr/share/perl5/Image/Info/TIFF.pm line 80

This is not really a serious problem, but report filed in light of recent 
vulnerabilities
with TIFF handling in general... just in case.
