            Bug ID: 1157810
           Summary: Net::Server 0.97 badly out of date
           Product: Fedora EPEL
           Version: el6
         Component: perl-Net-Server
          Severity: medium
          Assignee: lkundrak at v3.sk
          Reporter: cstith at gmail.com
        QA Contact: extras-qa at fedoraproject.org
                CC: kevin at scrye.com, lkundrak at v3.sk,
                    perl-devel at lists.fedoraproject.org



Description of problem:
The upstream version of Net::Server provided by the perl-Net-Server RPM in
epel-release-6-8.1.noarch is 0.97 while both epel-release-5-4.4.cip and
epel-release-7-2.noarch offer Net::Server 2.007 which is roughly 5.5 years
newer. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
epel-release-6-8.1
perl-Net-Server-0.97-7.el6

How reproducible:
100%


Steps to Reproduce:
1. install perl-Net-Server from EPEL


Actual results:
a Perl module distribution from 2007 is installed

Expected results:
a fairly recent version of the same Perl module distribution should be
installed

Additional info:
There is a CVE and associated EPEL bugs against 0.97 (which I'm not entirely
sure are addressed by the upstream upgrade). See open issues Bug 920685 and Bug
920683 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920685 and 
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=920683).
