Alert: Significant issue using LedgerSMB 1.3 and 1.2 against most recent Math::BigFloat and Math::BigInt libraries



Hi all;
A significant issue has been discovered when LedgerSMB is used with
current versions of Math::BigFloat and Math::BigInt.  In this
configuration one receives the following error message in important
parts of the application:

menu.pl:92: Can't call method "is_zero" on an undefined value at
/usr/share/perl5/Math/BigInt.pm line 1197.

This is known to happen in the AR/AP transaction screens during entry,
and in the invoice screens when printing.

We are working on a fix for this issue, and the fix will be available
for users of LedgerSMB 1.3 and 1.2 alike.   if you are not affected by
this issue at the moment please don't upgrade the Perl dependencies
until a new version is released which corrects this issue.  If you are
affected by the problem, please stay tuned for a fix.

Best Wishes,
Chris Travers
