Bug Description
Binary package hint: libio-compress-
issue:
libio-compress-
for example:
I would expect installation of this module, libio-compress-
use IO::Uncompress:
my $status = anyuncompress $input => $output
or die "anyuncompress failed: $AnyUncompressE
however, since libio-compress-
$ lsb_release -rd
Description: Ubuntu 9.04
Release: 9.04
$ apt-cache policy libio-compress-
libio-compress-
Installed: 2.015-1
Candidate: 2.015-1
Version table:
*** 2.015-1 0
500 http://

what was expected:
installation of this module should make the following code work as expected, for a bz2 file.
(i.e. $input is a bz2 file, $output is the uncompressed file)
use IO::Uncompress:
my $status = anyuncompress $input => $output
or die "anyuncompress failed: $AnyUncompressE
in order to make this code work I had to install, sudo apt-get install libio-compress-
to reproduce:
a standard install of 'jaunty'

Please note that libio-compress- base-perl is superseded by base-perl transitional dummy package.
libio-compress-perl (apparently only in karmic at the moment) which
also produces a libio-compress-
libio-compress-perl also includes IO-Compress-Bzip2.
