RE: [Cooker] making ISO cds error with perl in genhdlist_cz2: broken pipe

[Franck Martin]

I modified the script by creating a file and then using it with packdrake
and everything went ok... So the problem is really with the pipe or the open
command with pipe inside perl. I tried to look in perl how to specify the
size of the pipe but cannot find anything useful

Here is my modified code

#open B, "| packdrake -b9s $hdlist 40";

open B, ">$work_dir/pklist";

#foreach (@keys, keys %keys) { print STDOUT "$_ " }

foreach (@keys, keys %keys) { print B "$_\n" }

close B or die "cannot create pklist file\n";

system("cat $work_dir/pklist | $pwd/misc/packdrake -b9s $hdlist 400");

system("rm -rf $work_dir") unless $noclean;

Can you check that packdrake is running correctly without piping it first
and
with building an archive by a find or similar in a directory ?

[Cooker] making ISO cds error with perl in genhdlist_cz2: broken pipe

[Franck Martin]

When I try to make the ISO CDs for MDK7.2 I use the genhdlist_cz2 perl
script to make the hdlist1_cz file.

At the end of the script there is the following:

open B, "| packdrake -b9s $hdlist 40";
foreach (@keys, keys %keys) { print B "$_\n"; }
close B or die "packdrake failed\n";

I get there a broken pipe. I have done some debugging and I found out that
it seems a maximum of about 2000 chararcter can be passed through the pipe
to packdrake without getting a broken pipe.

What is wrong?

Thanks.
