Hi! Not sure if this is a bug, but, just in case... When searching how to print error messages without using perror, the man page of perror says "The global error list sys_errlist[] indexed by errno can be used to obtain the error message without the newline. The largest message number provided in the table is sys_nerr -1. Be careful when directly accessing this list because new error values may not have been added to sys_errlist[]." Searching for sys_errlist on the kernel includes pointed me to the file <bits/sys_errlist.h> where it says that sys_errlist[] is deprecated, recommending you to use strerror. Doing a google search confirm me this. Shouldn't this be reflected on perror's man page? I'm running an Ubuntu 10.04.4 LTS My kernel version 2.6.32-39-generic-pae I've installed the man page for perror version 3.23-1 Thanks -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
