perl-DateManip is a package included in CentOS and I'm pretty certain RHEL
as well, so I suppose the obsoleting EPEL perl-Date-Manip package should be
pulled ASAP.
Umm, *ping*? Nobody has responded, and the problematic update is still in the
repo. Is this not the correct place to report the problem?
I could of course go through Bugzilla but I doubt the package's maintainer has
permissions needed to fix the problem so I suppose that'd just needlessly
slow down the resolution.
