Product: Fedora Version: 25 Component: perl-Proc-PID-File Severity: low Assignee: marianne@tuxette.fr Reporter: edgar.hoch@ims.uni-stuttgart.de QA Contact: extras-qa@fedoraproject.org CC: marianne@tuxette.fr, perl-devel@lists.fedoraproject.org
Created attachment 1283443 --> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/attachment.cgi?id=1283443&action=edit Perl test program for Proc::PID::File
Description of problem:
When calling the attached perl program I get the following error messages:
Use of uninitialized value $fh in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Proc/PID/File.pm line 286. Use of uninitialized value $fh in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Proc/PID/File.pm line 286.
The problem seems to be that sub alive calls sub read without a parameter.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-Proc-PID-File-1.28-1.fc25.noarch
How reproducible: Always.
Steps to Reproduce: 1. Call the atteched perl program.
Actual results: Error message: Use of uninitialized value $fh in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Proc/PID/File.pm line 286. Use of uninitialized value $fh in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/Proc/PID/File.pm line 286.
Expected results: Nothing (no error, no output)

--- Comment #1 from Fedora End Of Life jkurik@fedoraproject.org --- This message is a reminder that Fedora 25 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 25. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '25'.
Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version.
Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not able to fix it before Fedora 25 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora, you are encouraged change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior this bug is closed as described in the policy above.
Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.
