			[root@kindle bin]# strace grep -l "/usr/bin/perl" Spoiler: 
 and then it hangs. forever... htop has it at 0 cpu... 0.2 mem so it doesn't bomb. just hangs ??? anyone ACTUALLY used the kindles grep - or am I making a new one - that works? Thanks Last edited by twobob; 08-22-2012 at 04:19 PM. Reason: BOLD  |

			Try: 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	strace -fF .... Post the result. The above just looks like it did not trace into the segfault message. You will also notice that whatever is being traced, is built with multi-arch/multi-lib support (we don't really need that, there is only one K3 arch).  |

			@twobob: Perfectly normal. You need to ask grep to find something *somewhere*. Right now it's defaulting to reading stdin. Since there's nothing to match there, it hangs until something interesting happens in stdin  
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
			 .EDIT: Hence why it works when you pipe something to it  .

			Sadly, it takes me awhile to figure out why it is taking so long when I do that (but usually no more that 15 seconds or so).

			![]() EDIT: For some reason this remind me of an old Vic20 Program... Poke 36529,blah. The color register if my befeebled mind still serves, Zomg, someone tell me why I can remember the poke registers for a 20 year old machine and can't remember how to use Grep. Ah well. Back to finding errors in Perl. One file at a time. it's only been 6 hours no doubt my homebrew perl will soon be powerful enough to build yum. Better be I'm getting bored ![]() If I have to run make microperl-reconfigure one more time I may go insane. on the bright side it takes 1 min as opposed to 90 mins. Thank you Buildroot!

 Isn't YUM written in python? Or am I just confused as to what microperl does? EDIT: It's probably the latter as I just checked, and the wiki says it's written in Python. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellowd...ater,_Modified  |
