  • Bug#1102919: cthumb: Global symbol "$datarootdir" requires explicit pac

    From Jan Huijsmans@21:1/5 to All on Sun Apr 13 10:50:01 2025
    Package: cthumb
    Version: 4.2-4
    Severity: grave
    Justification: renders package unusable

    s version relied on a variable datadit which is never set. On start you get the error:

    Global symbol "$datarootdir" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my $datarootdir"?) at /bin/cthumb line 90.

    In the script I had to replace $datarootdir/images at line 90 with /usr/share to get it working again.
