Bug#735532: libanyevent-rabbitmq-perl: Invalid location of fixed_amqp0-9-1.xml

[Maarten van Schaik]

Package: libanyevent-rabbitmq-perl
Version: 1.15~dfsg-1
Severity: grave
Tags: patch
Justification: renders package unusable

Dear Maintainer,

The XML spec file that is used by AnyEvent::RabbitMQ seems to be in the wrong
location.

Because of licensing issues the original file is removed from the package, and
replaced by a symlink to a stripped version included in amqp-specs. The location
of the symlink differs from the expected location though.

To demonstrate the issue:

$ perl -MAnyEvent::RabbitMQ -e 'AnyEvent::RabbitMQ->new->load_xml_spec();'
Could not create file parser context for file "/usr/share/perl5/auto/share/dist/AnyEvent-RabbitMQ/fixed_amqp0-9-1.xml": No such file or directory at /usr/share/perl5/Net/AMQP/Protocol.pm line 64.
	(in cleanup) close already in progress at /usr/share/perl5/AnyEvent/RabbitMQ.pm line 612.

(This command is expected to give no output and no error.)

The symlink is located in a subdirectory 'share', which is not expected by the
library.

This patch fixes the issue for me:
