Hi again, With help from Dave Mitchell I've found out that this bug has been already fixed by the following commit: http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/be48bbe8d671b6841c3ec7cb734b98071afe3cd9
I have applied the patch and rebuilt the source package from Ubuntu 12.04 and I can confirm that it solves the problem. The same bug has been reported and fixed in Fedora more than a year ago: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767931 I hope it will be added in Ubuntu and Debian soon. ** Bug watch added: Red Hat Bugzilla #767931 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=767931 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1100359 Title: Reading from <STDIN> results in "Interrupted system call" error when SIGCHLD handler is active To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/perl/+bug/1100359/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
