This is in a perl script I wrote to rip & tag MP3s from my CD collection. I installed the CDDB_get module from CPAN via the cpan2rpm package, which was itself installed via yum from the default Fedora Core 4 repositories. This operation worked without error on the non-updated FC4 (fresh install). I realized I hadn't done an update in quite some time, and after using "up2date --update" and restarting the system to boot into the new kernel, this error presented itself. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): perl-5.8.6-22 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install FC4 and all latest updates 2. Install cpan2rpm via up2date or yum 3. Install CDDB_get using cpan2rpm 4. Boot system into init level 3 (to keep X & desktop environs from interfering) 5. Insert an audio CD into the CD drive. 6. Download my cddbtest.pl script (http://www.unnerving.org/projects/bugreports/fc4_perl_ioctl/cddbtest.pl) Actual Results: script gives this error message: Possible memory corruption: ioctl overflowed 3rd argument at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/CDDB_get.pm line 135. Expected Results: Successful read of the CD, followed by output of CDDB info for the inserted audio CD.
