I think this explains the problem: most users will be running Mac OS X on Apple’s HFS+ file system, which, asof this writing, uses case-insensitive filenames. This creates a couple of gotchas formod_perl development. First, the mod_perl installation process will encourage you toinstall Perl’s LWP modules so that it can run a few HTTP requests to test mod_perlbefore installing it. Unfortunately, at the time of this writing LWP installs its HEAD scriptinto the /usr/bin/ directory. Although the case of any filename is preserved on HFS+,files called, say, FOO and foo cannot exist in the same directory. Thus LWP’s HEADprogram overwrites the Unix file-viewing utility /usr/bin/head. I guess that I now have to reinstall head.

The output you're seeing isgenerated by HEAD (note the capitalisation), which is a perl script bundledwith libwww-perl. -- < Jernej Simončič >< http://deepthought.ena.si/ >< Contact address: >< jernej simoncic at isg si > _______________________________________________gtk-list mailing listgtk-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list _______________________________________________gtk-list mailing listgtk-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
