It's probably more of an OS question than a Perl question, but i'll try anyway. It looks like different Unix flavors produce different errors when trying to run system "no_such_file" I am trying to build Perl ( rsync://public.activestate.com/perl-current/ ) on Fedora 8, 2.6.24.7-92.fc8. The test t/op/exec.t is failing on line 97. Apparently, running the following code:
... on Fedora sets $! to "Not a directory". Perl 5.8 on Ubuntu and Perl 5.10 on Cygwin both set $! to "No such file or directory", which would make the test pass. Is it the expected behavior on Fedora?
