Subject: cpan2pkg Tapper::CLI crashes.
When I do cpan2pkg Tapper::CLI I am getting this output: <<<< === 11912 === !!! At least one child process is still running when POE::Kernel->run() is ready to return. === 11912 === !!! Be sure to use sig_child() to reap child processes. === 11912 === !!! In extreme cases, failure to reap child processes has === 11912 === !!! resulted in a slow 'fork bomb' that has halted systems.

Seems like it spawned many sub-processes. Maybe you should throttle the rate of spawning them and limit the number of concurrent ones. I'm using Mageia Linux 3/Cauldron x86-64. Regards, -- Shlomi Fish

i already have the following checked in, but not yet released: mageia: allow only 2 urpm instances at the same time to prevent fork pikes
