Hi,
Hello,
I started getting this error after upgrading from Fedora 11 to 12. The
line of code hasn't been changed:
open my $LPR, '|-', qw/lpr -PDeskJet940C/ or die "can't fork lpr: $!";
The error is: "Insecure $ENV{PATH} while running with -T switch at"
pointing at the line above. From articles on the net I understand it has
something to do with '|-', though I'm not sure. What can/should I do
about it?
I had this problem before. If I added:
$ENV{"PATH"} = "";
at the start of the script, it doesn't seem to complain any more.
This article* provides an explanation.
Hope that helps,
Dave
