Now, is this (1) a bug in fakeroot (2) a bug in the package (3) the state of the world - threads being funky under fakeroot Attached is the script I used to test. should be run in the package directory, after "perl Makefile.PL". If there is an argument given, runs the test under fakeroot, otherwise not. Requires the timelimit utility, available in the `timelimit' package. The default time limit is 10 seconds. On my system the test takes just under 5. Adjust to fit your environment. (!) Beware that in cases when the test fails, some stale processes may be left - both perl interpreters and faked-sysv ones, taking up non-trivial amounts of memory. Results here: $ sh threadtest.sh 100 Run 100: 100 OK, 0 not OK $ sh threadtest.sh 20 fakeroot Run 20: 8 OK, 12 not OK $ ps a|grep [p]erl|wc -l 1 $ ps a|grep [f]aked-sysv|wc -l 1 $ killall faked-sysv $ ps a|grep [p]erl|wc -l 0 $ ps a|grep [f]aked-sysv|wc -l 0 -- dam JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
