------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-25-09 05:06 ------- I downloaded new files from corefonts.sourceforge and used drakfont on them. Here's the console output: tmp]# drakfont Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /usr/lib/libDrakX/lang.pm line 871 (#1) (W uninitialized) An undefined value was used as if it were already defined. It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables. To help you figure out what was undefined, perl tells you what operation you used the undefined value in. Note, however, that perl optimizes your program and the operation displayed in the warning may not necessarily appear literally in your program. For example, "that $foo" is usually optimized into "that " . $foo, and the warning will refer to the concatenation (.) operator, even though there is no . in your program.
