Package: libdbd-pg-perl
Version: 1.41-3
Severity: normal

When upgraded to libdbd-pg-perl-1.41-3 from version 1.32-2, our OTRS
(ticket system) broke. OTRS is a perl package, ran through apache. Here
is an excerpt from the apache error log:

[Mon May 30 10:14:11 2005] null: DBD::Pg::db do failed: execute called
with an unbound placeholder at /opt/otrs//Kernel/System/DB.pm line 330.
[Tue May 31 13:17:30 2005] [error] Cannot mix placeholder styles "?" and
":foo" at /usr/lib/perl5/DBD/Pg.pm line 172.\n

[Tue May 31 13:49:37 2005] [error] Cannot mix placeholder styles "?" and
":foo" at /usr/lib/perl5/DBD/Pg.pm line 172.\n
[Tue May 31 13:53:23 2005] [error] Cannot mix placeholder styles "?" and
":foo" at /usr/lib/perl5/DBD/Pg.pm line 172.\n

When downgrading to 1.32-2 again, things worked as expected again.

It seems this is a known bug in libdbd-pg-perl, see this thread at 
the dbpg-general mailing list, 
http://gborg.postgresql.org/pipermail/dbdpg-general/2005-May/001751.html
... which concludes with "It is a bug. Try DBD::Pg 1.32", signed
Rudy Lippan. 

Will the Debian maintainer try to fix the bug, or wait for the
libdb-pg-guys to fix it?
