[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install tar.gz rules packages on a local web server
2. Configure pulledpork to download packages rules from this server.
3. Launch pulledpork with "-d" flag. Several errors like this one are displayed:

"Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at 
/usr/local/bin/pulledpork.pl line 259."

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
A lot of errors like this are displayed: ""Use of uninitialized value in 
concatenation (.) or string at /usr/local/bin/pulledpork.pl line 259.""

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?

Please provide any additional information below.

Is this a rules tarball that you have created or?  Can you send me the output 
from an extra verbose run "-vv" ?

I have downloaded rules packages using wget:

wget 
http://www.snort.org/sub-rules/snortrules-snapshot-2904.tar.gz/3e223b8adb77155da
d073134c0368c1d9c3e3d1b -O /data/services/www/mirror/html/snortsigs/vrt.tar.gz.

Command:
pulledpork.pl -c /data/config/etc/snort-mgmt/pulledpork/pulledpork.conf -d -l 
-vv

Output:
[root@lindorinand ~]# more /tmp/pepe
