* Document that File::Find doesn't follow symlinksGreg Ward1997-09-051-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Subject: following symlinks with File::Find The behaviour of File::Find with respect to symbolic links is inconsistent between Perl 5.002/5.003 and 5.004_02. Since 5.004_02's behaviour (don't follow symlinks) is more consistent with `find' itself, this is probably more of a documentation bug -- i.e., the File::Find man page should mention that 1) it doesn't follow symlinks, and 2) previous versions did, so watch out! p5p-msgid: 199708191853.OAA07111@bottom.bic.mni.mcgill.ca

* (3) File::Find::find()/finddepth() bugs with toplevel pathsConrad E. Kimball1997-08-071-7/+13
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The File::Find module exhibits the following defects: 1) If the top-level directory is a symbolic link to another directory, the find() and finddepth() functions follow that symbolic link and traverse that directory. This behavior is both contrary to the way the real find command works and contrary to the way find() and finddepth() treat symbolic links that occur lower down in the directory hierarchy (which aren't followed). Example: $ cd $HOME $ mkdir findbug; cd findbug $ ln -s /usr usr $ find usr -print usr $ find2perl usr -print | perl usr usr/lost+found usr/tmp usr/tmp/.zma25637cbbb ... 2) If the wanted() function sets $prune = 1 for a toplevel directory, the find() function ignores it. It honors $prune for all lower level directories, but not the toplevel ones. This, too, is contrary to the way the real find command works. Example: $ find /usr -print -prune /usr $ find2perl /usr -print -prune | perl /usr /usr/lost+found /usr/tmp /usr/bin /usr/man /usr/etc /usr/lib /usr/netdemo /usr/include /usr/adm ... 3) If finddepth() is passed a toplevel path that is not a directory, it fails to set $name before calling the wanted() function. This, too, is contrary to the way the real find command works. Example: $ cd $HOME $ find /dev/null -depth -print /dev/null $ find2perl /dev/null -depth -print | perl $ The following patch corrects all three defects: p5p-msgid: 199707040045.RAA24459@mailgate2.boeing.com

Proven portable and tested patches preferred :-) Win32 uses something similar to the suggested method with installhtml, and it seems to work reasonably well. I'll supply a patch if I wander anywhere close to a UNIX box in the next 24 hours, and someone else hasn't already done it. :-) >When I follow the doc in installhtml, I get htmlwhich mostly works. > >Here's a sample: > >perl -w /ldata2/gnu/perl5.004/installhtml \ > --podpath=lib:ext:pod:vms:win32:plan9:os2:h2pl:x2p:Porting:eg \ > --podroot=/ldata2/gnu/perl5.004 \ > --htmldir=/projects/sprs_lwv/HTML/perl \ > --htmlroot=/projects/sprs_lwv/HTML/perl \ > --recurse \ > --splithead=pod/perlipc.pod \ > --splititem=pod/perlfunc.pod \ > --libpods=perlfunc:perlguts:perlvar:perlrun:perlop \ > --verbose - Sarathy. gsar@engin.umich.edu p5p-msgid: 199706081749.NAA04552@aatma.engin.umich.edu Subject: Re: make html --> unusable xref links From: "Darren/Torin/Who Ever..." <torin@daft.com> Files: INSTALL pod/perldiag.pod installhtml According to Jarkko Hietaniemi <jhi@iki.fi>: :Jim Avera writes: : > If you set HTMLROOT=. in pod/Makefile, then cross-references : > say .//pod/... which does not work either. : > Setting HTMLROOT to an absolute path doesn't work either (the : > spurrious /pod/ is always there). : > : > What is the intent of the current setup (p54rc1)?

BEGIN failed--compilation >> aborted at stest line 3. > >This problem is fixed in (the just released) 5.004. However, 5.004 changed the behavior of Syslog.pm in an icky way. In 5.003, Syslog called Sys::Hostname to get the name of the host, and happily used that as the logging host. Now, Syslog calls Sys::Hostname to get the name of the host, strips off all the domain info, and uses that as the host: sub connect { unless ($host) { require Sys::Hostname; my($host_uniq) = Sys::Hostname::hostname(); ($host) = $host_uniq =~ /([\w\-]+)/; } ....etc..... Was this intentional? It screws up systems which use an FQDN as their hostname and don't list the stripped-down version in their /etc/hosts file, because inet_aton fails on the stripped-down name.
