Subject: [PATCH] does not enable PROC_FS for Solaris >= 5.10
When configured and built under Solaris 5.10, I found that Proc::ProcessTable would only report on my own processes, and not those of any other user. It ends up that PROC_FS wasn't being defined, and the problem stems from this code in hints/solaris.pl: `uname -r` =~ /^(\d+\.\d+)/; if( $1 > 5.5 ){ $self->{DEFINE} = $self->{DEFINE} . " -DPROC_FS"; } Under Solaris 5.10, $1 == "5.10"; but (5.10 > 5.5) evaluates to FALSE Fixing the above conditional solves the problem. It could 'use version' and then use (qv($1) > qv(5.5)), but its simpler and more robust to use a regex not define PROC_PS on ancient Solaris systems. 17c17 < if( $1 > 5.5 ){ --- Show quoted text
