Package: perl Version: 5.20.2-3+deb8u6 Severity: normal Dear perl maintainers,
The following sequence gives: % sudo chmod o-x /usr/local/lib % perl -e "print join(' ',@INC);" /etc/perl /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20.2 /usr/local/share/perl/5.20.2 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl5/5.20 /usr/share/perl5 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20 /usr/share/perl/5.20 /usr/local/lib/site_perl . % perl -e 'use strict;' Can't locate strict.pm: /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20.2/strict.pm: Permission denied at -e line 1. BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at -e line 1. I think it would be more useful to skip /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.20.2/ and proceed with the next directory, rather than fail. See bug #855617 for reference. Cheers, -- Bill. <ballo...@debian.org> Imagine a large red swirl here.
