[Bug 1281292] Re: File::Pid bug with Perl >= 5.12

 

Interesting about the debian/ubuntu versions!  All I can say is that the
first time I wrote code using File::Pid, it worked on my home machine
(Ubuntu 10.04 I think) but failed when deployed on my server (CentOS),
and it took me ages to find that RT bug report which explained why.
This has continued to be the case up until quite recently - moving to a
new CentOS server a few months ago threw me all over again, having had
over a year to forget the problem, as my home machine (now with Ubuntu
12.04) still worked fine.  The comments on that RT report claim that
Debian/Ubuntu had patched, which I assumed to be the reason for the
difference between my home machine and server, although I'm not sure if
I ever actually checked the relevant line in the module.
