greetings,
http://search.cpan.org/~landman/Sudo-0.32/lib/Sudo.pm says:
As this module depends upon IPC::Run, it has all the
bugs/limitations of IPC::Run.
Spaces in file names, executables, and other odd items which give
IPC::Run fits,
will give Sudo fits. We would like to fix this, but this requires
fixing IPC::Run.
this sounds to me like maybe a reason not to use it. i suppose i
could supply double quotes around any paths potentially having
whitespace and around other "odd items".
anyone used this module and run into this issue?
thanks,
david
