Bug#756629: libfile-fcntllock-perl: File::FcntlLock no longer exports the required constants

[Raphaël Hertzog]

Package: libfile-fcntllock-perl
Version: 0.20-1
Severity: important

The documentation of File::FcntlLock says:

   EXPORT
       The package exports the following constants:

       F_GETLK F_SETLK F_SETLKW
       F_RDLCK F_WRLCK F_UNLCK
       SEEK_SET SEEK_CUR SEEK_END

But:

$ perl -MFile::FcntlLock -Mstrict -w -e "F_GETLK"
Bareword "F_GETLK" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at -e line 1.
Execution of -e aborted due to compilation errors.

The problem is that the constants are exported by File::FcntlLock::Core
but no longer by File::FcntlLock itself.

Here's a tentative patch:
$ diff -u lib/File/FcntlLock.pm /usr/lib/perl5/File/FcntlLock.pm

It seems to work here. I'd appreciate a prompt fix as it's affecting Kali.
