True. We already know that spaces in $basepath are a hopeless case, so no loss. Maybe what we really need is to implement them all as a new Services::read_pipe_cmd(($cmd) that either returns a filehandle ready to read or prints a warning and returns an undef. That way we could use Symbol::gensym or maybe IO::* objects with intelligent scoping and do away from all those FILEHANDLE symbols. dan -- Daniel Macks [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.netspace.org/~dmacks --- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.

Martin, Yes, I have UseBinaryDist: true in fink.conf. I changed the line in question per your instructions below, and everything is copacetic.
