Debian DLA-682-1 : libdatetime-timezone-perl new upstream version

high Nessus Plugin ID 94296

Synopsis

The remote Debian host is missing a security update.

Description

This update includes the changes in tzdata up to 2016h for the Perl bindings. For the list of changes, see DLA-681-1.

For Debian 7 'Wheezy', these problems have been fixed in version 1:1.58-1+2016h.

We recommend that you upgrade your libdatetime-time zone-perl packages.

NOTE: Tenable Network Security has extracted the preceding description block directly from the DLA security advisory. Tenable has attempted to automatically clean and format it as much as possible without introducing additional issues.

Solution

Upgrade the affected libdatetime-timezone-perl package.
