Package: release.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:eperl
X-Debbugs-Cc: eperl@packages.debian.org
User: release.debian.org@packages.debian.org
Usertags: pu
Tags: trixie
Severity: normal

[ Reason ]
eperl 2.2.15-1, when used with Perl 5.40,
in scenarios most likely to happen when running under CGI,
truncates the environment block to just 1 variable,
rendering it basically useless for that purpose.

[ Impact ]
Regressing to no functional eperl CGI in trixie.

[ Tests ]
This test was developed for and under trixie, see the test log under
  https://bugs.debian.org/1114004#10
consisting of
  echo '<? foreach my $var (keys %ENV) {print "$var = $ENV{$var}\n"; } !>' > b.phtml
  env -i GATEWAY_INTERFACE=CGI/1.1 PATH_TRANSLATED="$PWD/b.phtml" eperl

I reproduce these results when building this dsc on trixie.

[ Risks ]
The change is trivial and cannot regress.

[ Checklist ]
  [x] *all* changes are documented in the d/changelog
  [x] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
  [x] attach debdiff against the package in (old)stable
  [x] the issue is verified as fixed in unstable

[ Changes ]
The upstream patch for this is imported.

[ Other info ]
From a surface analysis, the patch should be a no-op, but it isn't.
I haven't managed to ascertain what's /actually/ going on in libperl to
damage the environment block, just how to make it stop.

I put the package on https://mentors.debian.net/package/eperl/
If this update is approved, it will need to be uploaded by a DD.
