An updated perl-DBI package that fixes various bugs is now available.
Perl-DBI is a database access Application Programming Interface (API) for
the Perl language. The DBI API specification defines a set of functions,
variables, and conventions, that provide a consistent database interface,
which is independent of the database being used.
This updated package fixes the following bugs:
* the values for "DBI::PurePerl looks_like_number()" and "$DBI::rows" were
incorrect in some cases.
* in certain situations, the "last_insert_id()" call failed to return the
correct data.
* due to the "die()" return being used, the "bind_columns()" call failed
to return an error in some cases. In this updated package, the
"bind_columns()" call uses the "set_err()" return, which resolves this
issue.
* potential data corruption for compiled drivers caused by the
"selectall_arrayref" and "selectrow_arrayref" calls has been resolved.
All perl-DBI users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which
resolves these issues.
Before applying this update, make sure that all previously-released
errata relevant to your system have been applied.
