Hi all, the same here. with DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION="Ubuntu 12.04.2 LTS" perl package: 5.14.2-6ubuntu2.3 amd64.
Rebuilding perl with the above patch: http://perl5.git.perl.org/perl.git/commitdiff/be48bbe8d671b6841c3ec7cb734b98071afe3cd9 worked. I think it should be fixed in any service release for 12.04 lts. the failed perl code was: my $out=`pdf2swf $file 2>&1`; After the external program pdf2swf wrote some stuff to STDOUT - and should be read by calling perl programm STDIN to $out variable it broke after some output lines with "SIGPIPE broken pipe". After the recompile with the patch it runs fine now - as before (don't know which version of perl stopped working, did a release-upgrade) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1100359 Title: Reading from <STDIN> results in "Interrupted system call" error when SIGCHLD handler is active To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/perl/+bug/1100359/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
