Bug#882390: libnet-twitter-perl: tweets are truncated to 140 characters

Package: libnet-twitter-perl
Version: 4.01041-1
Severity: important

Some time ago, Twitter has extended tweets to more than 140 characters.
But with Net::Twitter, tweets are truncated to 140 characters, and
even less (because they include a link to get the full tweet when this
occurs). This makes this module rather useless nowadays.

This module should be updated to the current Twitter API.
