Fedora Core 5 perl-XML-Dumper 0.81-1.FC5 Security Advisory

Updated package.. ---------------------------------------------------------------------Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2006-369 2006-04-19 ---------------------------------------------------------------------Product : Fedora Core 5 Name : perl-XML-Dumper Version : 0.81 Release : 1.FC5 Summary : Perl module for dumping Perl objects from/to XML Description : XML::Dumper dumps Perl data to XML format. XML::Dumper can also read XML data that was previously dumped by the module and convert it back to Perl. Perl objects are blessed back to their original packaging; if the modules are installed on the system where the perl objects are reconstituted from xml, they will behave as expected. Intuitively, if the perl objects are converted and reconstituted in the same environment, all should be well. ---------------------------------------------------------------------* Wed Apr 12 2006 Jason Vas Dias - 0.81-1 - upgrade to 0.81 ---------------------------------------------------------------------This update can be downloaded from: 0dc73ddd10917b049749e8a3261ff9d5f52bc808 SRPMS/perl-XML-Dumper-0.81-1.FC5.src.rpm 8467207736f9f75fab578ead7424d1c46e83fa21 ppc/perl-XML-Dumper-0.81-1.FC5.noarch.rpm 8467207736f9f75fab578ead7424d1c46e83fa21 x86_64/perl-XML-Dumper-0.81-1.FC5.noarch.rpm 8467207736f9f75fab578ead7424d1c46e83fa21 i386/perl-XML-Dumper-0.81-1.FC5.noarch.rpm This update can be installed with the 'yum' update program.
