[Popcon-developers] Bug#855617: popularity-contest: /etc/cron.daily/popularity-contest can't locate strict.pm

[Martin Dosch]

Package: popularity-contest
Version: 1.64
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

the cronjob fails with following error:

"Can't locate strict.pm:   /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-
gnu/perl/5.24.1/strict.pm: Permission denied at /usr/sbin/popularity-contest
line 25.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /usr/sbin/popularity-contest line 25."

Seems like it expects the file strict.pm in the wrong place:

find /usr -type f -name strict.pm
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/strict.pm
/usr/share/perl/5.22.2/strict.pm
/usr/share/perl/5.24.1/strict.pm
