Package: perl
Version: 5.8.8-11.1
Severity: normal
Time::HiRes ualarm does not work anymore.
The following command will demonstrate the error from the
'setitimer' system call:
strace perl -e 'use Time::HiRes qw(ualarm); ualarm 2000000; sleep 4; ualarm
200000; sleep 4'
The call wit 2000000 usec will give EINVAL because the value for the
usec field ia larger than 1 second. The total delay value must be split
in two, a seconds field and a useconds field.
Regards,
Matthijs Melchior.
