Yes, quite likely. > Perhaps a workaround is to somehow tell Cygwin that its > /tmp is actually C:\tmp because on Windows, the path '\' refers to the > root of the current drive. This sounds like a good workaround -- maybe configure the Windows buildslave with the environment variable TMP="c:\tmp" and see if Perl uses that variable. Another would be to install a Windows version of Perl, but I'm loathe to mess with such things. Another would be to rewrite that test into sh, which seems to be the trend. :-) Regards, Zooko --- http://allmydata.org -- Tahoe, the Least-Authority Filesystem http://allmydata.com -- back up all your files for $5/month _______________________________________________ darcs-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osuosl.org/mailman/listinfo/darcs-users
