Title:
  Using IO::File together with POSIX causes warnings. (Constant
  subroutine main::SEEK_SET redefined)

Status in “perl” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in Debian GNU/Linux:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: perl

  This is the same as http://bugs.debian.org/479957 which was fixed in
  Debian's perl-5.10.0-12 (Intrepid is at 5.10.0-11.1ubuntu2 as of
  today):

     * Fix 'constant subroutine SEEK_* redefined' warnings when using the
       Fcntl and POSIX modules together. (Closes: #479957)

  
  The bug makes the daily eximstats cron job send two emails.  One expected with a daily mail report and one unexpected with these warnings:

  /etc/cron.daily/exim4-base:
  Constant subroutine main::SEEK_SET redefined at /usr/sbin/eximstats line 554
  Constant subroutine main::SEEK_END redefined at /usr/sbin/eximstats line 554
  Constant subroutine main::SEEK_CUR redefined at /usr/sbin/eximstats line 554
