Hello Martin, popcon expects the user 'nobody' to be allowed to use perl. Otherwise you have to change the config file /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest specifically the function run_popcon(). > >apt list -a perl-base > >Listing...

So what gives: ls -ld /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl ls -ld /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/ ls -l /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/strict.pm Cheers, -- Bill. <ballo...@debian.org> Imagine a large red swirl here.
