I just noticed this in my system logs: Feb 23 07:14:19 laa kernel: pid 71141 (try), uid 0: exited on signal 10 (core dumped) Now, I have a very busy box here, but I cannot really tell to which software the 'try' belongs to, and since it's running as uid 0, this raises some alarms on my end. I also cannot find the core file... -- br, Tommi

There was actually perl getting updated at that point.Heh. Yes, while autoconf uses "conftest" for its test executables, Metaconfig (which I think only perl uses at this point) uses "try". -- brandon s. allbery [linux,solaris,freebsd,perl] allbery@kf8nh.com system administrator [openafs,heimdal,too many hats] allbery@ece.cmu.edu electrical and computer engineering, carnegie mellon university KF8NH
