Package: libexpat1
Version: 1.95.8-3.4+etch2_i386
After upgrading libexpat1 my perl script which used XPath ceased
functioning. Downgrading back to 1.95.8-3.4+etch1 fixed the problem,
meaning the bug was introduced with the patch. I'm using local copy of
the doctype definition as seen below.
error in processing external entity reference at line 1, column 117,
byte 117:

A small perl script to reproduce the bug (this works in etch1 patch, but
not in etch2)
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use DBI;
use DBD::mysql;
use Text::Iconv;
use Getopt::Long;
use Net::HTTP;
use XML::XPath;
use XML::XPath::XMLParser;
my $document = '<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0
Transitional//EN" "http://www.koripallo.com/dtd/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"; xml:lang="en" lang="en">
<head></head>
<body></body></html>';
my $xp = XML::XPath->new(xml => $document);
my $nodeset = $xp->find('/html/body');
print "Works.\n";
