Thanks for your info, I now can reproduce the problem:

Interestingly the example script still works:

gregoa at belanna:~$ echo $LANG
C
gregoa at belanna:~$ /usr/share/doc/libproc-processtable-perl/examples/example.pl
[lots of output without errors]
gregoa at belanna:~$ export LANG=de_AT.utf8
gregoa at belanna:~$ echo $LANG
de_AT.utf8
gregoa at belanna:~$ /usr/share/doc/libproc-processtable-perl/examples/example.pl
[lots of output without errors]

Hm, so the example works both with C and de_AT.utf8, and your script
fails with both C and de_DE.UTF-8.

Some times later:

* It should be cmndline instead of cmdline.
* And then you want to use $ref and not $p in the loop.
* And $p->{pid} and $p->{cmndline} is probably cleaner.


The following works for me under C and under de_AT.utf8:

$ nl -ba ff
     1  #!/usr/bin/env perl
     2  
     3  use Proc::ProcessTable;
     4  use strict;
     5  use warnings;
     6  
     7  my $p = Proc::ProcessTable->new();
     8  my ( $ref, $pid, $cmd );
     9  
    10  foreach $ref ( @{ $p->table } ) {
    11      $pid = $ref->pid;
    12      $cmd = $ref->cmndline;
    13      if ( $cmd =~ /firefox/ ) {
    14          printf( "Found %d / %s\n", $pid, $cmd );
    15      }
    16  }

It seems we can close this bug :)


Cheers,
gregor
