markov2 / perl5-posix-1003

alternative for POSIX in core

Greetings from The Netherlands

Some of my work can be found here, as @markov2, but I have made much more code since I learned to program back in 1978.

You may be able to hire me for short projects (max 2 weeks) related to my work, because I am self-employed. See my company website MarkOv Solutions and LinkedIn.

t/50glob.t fails (redux)

This test still fails. I know why now, though:

my $tmp = '/tmp/s23DSaba';
mkdir $tmp;
chmod 0, $tmp;

^^ This creates the temporary directory and then sets it no-access. That doesn’t work for the superuser, though—on Linux, anyway—so if an install runs as root then this test will fail.

t/50glob.t fails

#   Failed test 'error fn'
#   at t/50glob.t line 46.
#                   undef
#     doesn't match '(?^:^\/tmp\/s23DSaba/?$)'

t/50glob.t ........ 

This doesn’t appear to impede use of the module but does prevent installation without extra flags to skip tests.

Seen with:

• 5.32 on CentOS 7
• 5.24.1 on Raspbian 4.19.66-v7
