Name "BerkeleyDB::Term::Db" used only once

[John Relph]

Binary package hint: libberkeleydb-perl

I recently upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 from 8.04. Now, when I use the perl module BerkeleyDB I see a warning:

Name "BerkeleyDB::Term::Db" used only once: possible typo at /usr/lib/perl5/BerkeleyDB.pm line 982.

This error is in the perl module included in the "libberkeleydb-perl" package, version 0.34-1build1 is installed.

What can I do about it?

My perl code includes "use BerkeleyDB;" and ties a hash:

tie %{$hash}, 'BerkeleyDB::Btree', -Filename => $fn, -Flags => DB_CREATE;

The error is not in my code. This code worked fine under Hardy and Gutsy. The code still works fine, but I get the warning now. And I don't want to get the warning.

Hi. Though it is only a warning, it is quite annoying, I work it around changing this file:

    /usr/lib/perl5/BerkeleyDB.pm

Around line 1054, change the line with _db_open_hash like this:

        my $addr;
        {
            no warnings;
            ($addr) = _db_open_hash($self, $got);
        }
