Hi.

Debian diverts from the upstream default and uses enable_embedded_perl=1.
This is a good thing actually.

But I would recommend to then use: use_embedded_perl_implicitly=0
(currenly 1).

By that (AFAIU) only such Perl scripts explicitly marked for the
embedded Perl interpreter will get interpreted by it (and all others
by the native one).


This seems to be more save, as the embedded Perl interpreter has several
issues.


Cheers,
Chris.

btw: I've also suggested both upstream: https://dev.icinga.org/issues/2943
