Package: libdevel-cover-perl
Version: 0.55-1
Severity: minor

Hi,

I was just wondering, why the coverage database cover_db and the subfolder 
cover_db/runs have permission 777 set, when they are created by the 
Devel::Cover module. I read through the code and found two positions, where it 
was written, that this was a bugfix for perl 5.6.1. Quote: "Nasty hack to keep 
5.6.1 happy.". Now, that this package depends on perlapi-5.8.7 and perl (>= 
5.8.7-10), can we remove that old bugfix to have nice and secure directory 
permissions ?

Thanks,
  Toby
