unpack fails in asstatd.pl

[tomm3h]

Hello,

I've recently tried to upgrade from 1.4.2 to 1.6, and am having problems running the updated asstatd.pl:

as-stats@flows:$ /opt/as-stats/bin/asstatd.pl -r /opt/as-stats/rrd -k /opt/as-stats/conf/knownlinks -p 8990 -a 65000
'/' must follow a numeric type in unpack at /opt/as-stats/bin/asstatd.pl line 201.
as-stats@flows:$

The line in question (201) uses unpack() to read Netflowv9 data:

https://github.com/manuelkasper/AS-Stats/blob/master/bin/asstatd.pl#l201

Perl version is 5.14.2, x86_64 (from debian wheezy) and all system packages are up to date at the time of writing.

I'm no expert on unpack (or perl in general) but I can happily supply more info/output if requested.

I got the same error last night on a fresh installation:

as-stats[21709]: '/' must follow a numeric type in unpack at /data/as-stats/bin/asstatd.pl line 201.
