https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=218049 Summary: perl bootloader errors, uninitialized variables Product: openSUSE 10.2 Version: Beta 1 plus Platform: i386 OS/Version: Linux Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: jplack@novell.com ReportedBy: olh@novell.com QAContact: qa@suse.de what I found on tty during bug #218029 inst-sys:~ # ./vcs.sh 80 < /dev/vcs1 defined. It was interpreted as a "" or a 0, but maybe it was a mistake. To suppress this warning assign a defined value to your variables. To help you figure out what was undefined, perl tells you what operation you used the undefined value in. Note, however, that perl optimizes your program and the operation displayed in the warning may not necessarily appear literally in your program. For example, "that $foo" is usually optimized into "that " . $foo, and the warning will refer to the concatenation (.) operator, even though there is no . in your program.
