Description Florian Weimer 2013-11-14 16:42:21 UTC 
Upstream version 2.45 added a security warning to the documentation, which we should include as well.
Comment 2 Petr Pisar 2013-11-18 08:13:29 UTC 
There are much important fixes than a documentation available between current in-distribution 2.39 and upstream 2.45 versions:

Sat Jul 13 18:34:27 IST 2013   Abhijit Menon-Sen <ams>
    Version 2.45

       * [perl #118829] Memory leaks in STORABLE_attach
         (Vladimir Timofeev)
       * [perl #118139] Don't SEGV during global destruction
         (Nicholas Clark, report/test from Reini Urban)
       * Added security warnings section (Steffen Mueller)
       * Update INSTALLDIRS to favour installation in 'site'
         (James E Keenan)

    Version 2.39

Because of pure bug-fix nature, I request rebese to 2.45 version.
