Hi all,

I have a printer filter that worked under kernel 1.2.13 that is broke
under 2.04. It looks like the following:

#!/bin/sh
ln -s /proc/self/fd/0 /tmp/$$.html
/usr/bin/html2ascii/html-to-ascii.pl /tmp/$$.html|pr
rm /tmp/$$.html

The port errs file says that the temporary file could not be open (ie.
/tmp/5022.html) . I looked in the Changes documentation, but I could not
find anything in the proc area that could be related.

I have upgraded to the latest version of perl and I am running
libc-5.2.18.

Any ideas?

TIA, Allen
