Dear all,

We have a new release version 1.19 of Net::DNS

This release two bugfixes:

• A bugfix for search() returning a NODATA packet instead of the documented undef in some situations
• A bugfix to not use global bare file handles when reading the resolver configuration file

This release also contains a new feature to show the structure of EDNS options when printing. For example:

    $packet->edns->print;

    ;; EDNS version 0
    ;;      flags:  8000
    ;;      rcode:  NOERROR
    ;;      size:   1280
    ;;      option: DAU    => ( 8, 10, 13, 14, 15, 16 )
    ;;              DHU    => ( 1, 2, 4 )
    ;;              COOKIE => ( CLIENT-COOKIE => 7261776279746573,
    ;;                          SERVER-COOKIE =>  )
