First - thanks for getting Fedora updated on EC2! I've been using FC8 there and FC13 (now 14) on Rackspace.
Things are working fine, except: on the EC2 Fedora 14 image I've installed, I can't install perl modules. I've tried with several, and when I do "perl Makefile.PL", it just hangs at "Checking if your kit is complete...". When I do an strace, it seems like its hanging on getdents64 (last few lines at bottom of this email).
Note: on my Rackspace Fedora 14 instance, I do not see this behavior and am able to install perl Modules OK.
Any tips or pointers on where to go, debugging-wise, would be much appreciated.
Thanks!
Simon

Hi Simon,
It seems this is related to this bug:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=651861
Could you please make a comment there?

Very interesting... that's the same function that is causing httpd to hang for some people, as noted here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=651861
Not really sure what that means, but I do find it interesting that they're both hanging on the same system call.

Just to circle back, the RH folks via bugzilla gave us a simple reproducer which hangs and they've assigned it to the glibc folks. I am also finding (as mentioned by someone else previously) that httpd will not start when using an EC2 32-bit image. I hope they fix this soon, because without apache, I'm going to have to hold off adopting Fedora 14 and stick with FC8 for now (the non-32-bit images are only available in large size and therefore more expensive).
Thanks for everyone's quick responses!
Simon
