hi all,

i'm stuck debugging a problem that appeared after this update made it to our systems: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-announce/2015-January/020856.html

GDBM_File fails simple operation (which works with 1.8.0-36 of gdbm)

could someone with same perl and gdbm confirm the issue via simple script below? (would help me narrow down if this is something specific on our site or not)

# rpm -q perl gdbm glibc perl-5.10.1-136.el6_6.1.x86_64 gdbm-1.8.0-37.el6.x86_64 glibc-2.12-1.149.el6_6.4.x86_64 glibc-2.12-1.149.el6_6.4.i686

output of script with 1.8.0-37:

Adding data to tie gdbm store returned -1, errno 0, key "1" at ./t.pl line 11.

thanks

stijn

SCRIPT

#!/usr/bin/perl

use GDBM_File;

my $file = "/tmp/x.db"; my %out; tie(%out, 'GDBM_File', $file, &GDBM_WRCREAT, 0644) or print "can't tie $file DB: $!";

print "Adding data to tie\n"; $out{1}=2;

print "Going to untie\n";

untie(%out) or print "can't untie $file DB: $!";
