           Summary: The timeout option is not working as expected
           Product: Fedora EPEL
           Version: el5
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: medium
          Priority: low
         Component: perl-Net-STOMP-Client
        AssignedTo: steve.traylen at cern.ch
        ReportedBy: lionel.cons at cern.ch
         QAContact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org

    Classification: Fedora


Description of problem: At object creation time (initial TCP connection), the
timeout option is ignored and may lead to blocking.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 0.8-1

How reproducible: Easy, just needs a valid IP address which is down, noted
1.2.3.4 below.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Run the following Perl code:
 use Net::STOMP::Client;
 my $s = Net::STOMP::Client->new(uri => "tcp://1.2.3.4:1234", timeout => 1);
2. Check how long it takes.

Actual results: blocks for several minutes.

Expected results: should return after one second.

Additional info: this is a known bug fixed in version 0.9 of
perl-Net-STOMP-Client, available on CPAN.
