[Pgreet-users] Just Unicode warnings (Re: pgreet install error)

Dear Matt,
Sorry for the surprise, but actually the daemon is probably working just
fine. The error messages you are seeing are being caused by an
incompatibility between Perl 5.8.0's Unicode system and the way that
RedHat has configured it's default character set. Thankfully, if you
upgrade to Perl 5.8.1 (just out) you won't get those error messages anymore.
pgreetd.pl is a daemon, so if you run it from the command line, it will
almost immediately give you back the prompt since it has forked a new
process. To see if it is really running, take a look at the Penguin
Greetings log (default: /var/log/pgreet.log) or check for processes named
pgreetd (e.g.:)
ps ax | grep pgreetd
You may multiple copies of the daemon already running which you should
kill as they will interfere with each other - this might be a good time
for a killall command! :-)
Sorry for the surprise, I've been developing on RedHat the whole time,
but since I've had these error messages for months, I learned to ignore
them ... perhaps too completely!! :-)
Peace, Edouard
P.S. I'm sending a carbon-copy to the Penguin Greetings user list in case
anyone else has the same problem.
