Package: libanydata-perl Version: 0.10-7 Severity: important
When using AnyData with an XML data source over HTTP, the library fails to show any data. Using the exact same XML data from a local file source works as documented. I have tested this with both AnyData directly, and via DBD::AnyData, and neither interface returns data from HTTP. I added some debug output and tried to trace down what the problem was - I believe the point of failure is in AnyData::Format::XML, where it calls get_data but falls out from the line: my $fh_or_str = shift || return; This is around line 684 of my AnyData/Format/XML.pm. If I remove the "|| return", then it works (as the code then checks for a URL, and continues). I've tried mailing the upstream author of the Perl package (Jeff Zucker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>) but have had no response, nor has there been any further updates to the Perl package. -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (550, 'stable'), (90, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.19.2p370 Locale: LANG=en_AU, LC_CTYPE=en_AU (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages libanydata-perl depends on: ii libxml-twig-perl 1:3.26-2 Perl module for processing huge XM ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction libanydata-perl recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
