Lchown - perl interface to the lchown(2) system call The Lchown module provides a perl interface to the lchown(2) UNIX system call, on systems that support lchown. The lchown(2) call is used to change the ownership and group of symbolic links. DEPENDENCIES The test suite requires the Test::More module, available from CPAN. The oldest perl version that I've tested against is 5.00404. INSTALLATION perl Build.PL ./Build ./Build test ./Build install This module should build and pass tests on systems without the lchown system call. Any lchown call will fail at runtime on such systems. Since the lchown system call often requires root privileges to make any change, most of the tests will be skipped unless "make test" is run as root.
