[Mark Dootson]

Package: libwx-perl
Version: 1:0.9923-4
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

The Wx::Timer class leaks 1 scalar for every timer event. As these may me
triggered at millisecond intervals, this may cause problems where developers
nake extensive use of Wx::Timer. The problem was fixed in WX 0.9928.The patch
applioed there is attached.

Please consider applying it to the stable package.
