Bug#311356: perl: file test operator ignores POSIX ACL

2005-05-31 Thread Gabor Kiss 
Package: perl
Version: 5.8.4-8
Severity: normal

File::Temp::tempdir reported access right error:
"Error in tempdir() using /tmp/cdbuffer/tmp/XX: Parent directory 
(/tmp/cdbuffer/tmp) is not writable"

However filesystem supports POSIX ACLs and appropriate permissions are set.

Demo scene:

User mapcd.mapcd created a sample script called 'fileoptest' in
directory /tmp/cdbuffer/tmp:

[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/tmp/cdbuffer/tmp$ ls -la

Bug#311356: perl: file test operator ignores POSIX ACL

2005-10-07 Thread Niko Tyni 
Hi,

this is documented behaviour, and the 'filetest' pragma is a solution
for this. See 'perldoc -f -x' and 'perldoc filetest'.

Cheers,
