Defining a holiday in the global or personal config file using the EASTER flag as per the manual, or example config file, results in a runtime error. To test: 1. Create a .DateManip.cnf file in your home directory containing for example [ begin .DateManip.cnf ] *HOLIDAY 1*0:0:0:0:0:0*EASTER [ end .DateManip.cnf ] 2. Create a test script for example [ begin test.pl ] #!/usr/bin/perl use Date::Manip; print ParseDate("Thu 18 Mar 12:15:01 PM"); [ end test.pl ] 3. run ./test.pl 4. Result: ./test.pl ERROR: invalid Date::Manip config file line. 1*0:0:0:0:0:0*EASTER at /usr/share/perl5/Date/Manip.pm line 5404 Date::Manip::_Date_InitFile('/home/blah/.DateManip.cnf') called at /usr/share/perl5/Date/Manip.pm line 317 Date::Manip::Date_Init() called at /usr/share/perl5/Date/Manip.pm line 1463 Date::Manip::ParseDate('Thu 18 Mar 12:15:01 PM') called at ./test.pl line 5 Commenting out the line in the cnf file gives a clean run. -- System Information: Debian Release: 5.0.4 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.26-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages libdate-manip-perl depends on: ii perl 5.10.0-19lenny2 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction libdate-manip-perl recommends no packages. libdate-manip-perl suggests no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
