What are the Perl dependencies in INSTALL and the daemon section of the

this can be removed if you feel like it: test/stats.pl
Along with test/auth_eval.sh and test/auth_measure.sh? Since these
two files still contain arch references (hipl--esp--2.6) I assume they
have been unused since at least the switch to Bazaar.
This depends on whether Rene or Tobi wants to keep them?
This is required by the daemon: tools/nsupdate.pl.in
It is used for updating the HIT-IP binding to a DNS server. At the
moment, it is turned on in the default configuration file, so it should
be mandatory requirement.
Nsupdate script requires the following packages:
Requires: .. libnet-ip-perl libnet-dns-perl libsocket6-perl
libio-socket-inet6-perl
They should be actually Use'd in the beginning of the script...
At the top of nsupdate.pl I see
use Net::DNS;
use Net::IP qw/ip_is_ipv6 ip_is_ipv4/;
use Sys::Syslog;
use Sys::Hostname;
so I wonder where the libsocket6-perl libio-socket-inet6-perl deps
come from.
Hmm, maybe you can remove them, I'll complain then if something gets
broken :)
I also noticed that nsupdate.pl is lacking a license statement. It's
not clear to me who the original author is and if this file was part
of the relicensing efforts or not, but I think the situation should
be clarified by adding a license statement to the top of the file.
Oleg did this and he was paid by HIIT, so the same licensing conditions
apply (MIT/Expat).
