+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #849094 +++
Description of problem:
If the package "perl-homedir" is installed users that use CSH as their default
login shell get an error "if: Expression Syntax." during login. Removing
/etc/profile.d/perl-homedir.csh fixes the issue.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
perl-homedir-1.008004-4
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. adduser -s /usr/bin/csh cshtest
2. yum install perl-homedir
3. su - cshtest
Actual results:
[root]# su - cshtest
if: Expression Syntax.
[cshtest]$
Expected results:
The error "if: Expression Syntax." should not be displayed

Thank you for the report. The file is not in CSH syntax.

Even fixing the profile script does not help because CSH replaces end-of-lines
in command substitution output making the eval statement not working:
# su -l -s /bin/tcsh test
setenv: Too many arguments.
$
$ perl -Mlocal::lib
setenv PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT "/home/test/perl5"
setenv PERL_MB_OPT "--install_base /home/test/perl5"
setenv PERL_MM_OPT "INSTALL_BASE=/home/test/perl5"
setenv PERL5LIB
"/home/test/perl5/lib/perl5/x86_64-linux-thread-multi:/home/test/perl5/lib/perl5"
setenv PATH "/home/test/perl5/bin:$PATH"
$ eval `perl -Mlocal::lib`
setenv: Too many arguments.
This is tracked by upstream bug
<https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=60072>.
