perl-DateTime bug fix update

Type/Severity

Bug Fix Advisory

Topic

Updated perl-DateTime packages that fix one bug are now available for Red Hat
Enterprise Linux 6.

Description

DateTime is a class for the representation of date/time combinations, and
is part of the Perl DateTime project.

This update fixes the following bug:

• Previously, DateTime::Duration did not recognize the leap to 2012-07-01, which
  led to inaccurate computing time duration through the 2012-06-30T23:59:60
  second. To fix this bug, a leap second appended in the end of 2012-06-30 has
  been added to perl-DateTime leap second database. Time arithmetic using Perl
  modules DateTime and DateTime::Duration now recognizes the leap from 2012-06-30
  second correctly. (BZ#978360)
  

Users of perl-DateTime are advised to upgrade to these updated packages, which
fix this bug.

Solution

Before applying this update, make sure all previously released errata relevant
to your system have been applied.
