            Bug ID: 275722
           Summary: lang/perl5.36 - incorrect printf/sprintf output of
                    bignum values
           Product: Ports & Packages
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Many People
          Priority: ---

perl5-5.36.1_1 package contains bignum/bigint/bigfloat modules which work
incorrectly with printf/sprintf. Test script:

------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use bignum;

my $a =3D 0.1;
my $b =3D sprintf("%0.1f", $a);
print "$a =3D $b\n";
------------------------------

Expected output is "0.1 =3D 0.1".
Actual output is "0.1 =3D 0.0".

Workaround:
pkg install p5-Math-BigInt
The package provides new versions of bignum/bigint/bigfloat modules.
