# B.7. Your vendor has not defined Fcntl macro O_NOINHERIT

This is caused by a bug in the version of File::Temp that is distributed with perl 5.6.0. Many minor variations of this error have been reported:

    Your vendor has not defined Fcntl macro O_NOINHERIT, used
    at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/File/Temp.pm line 208.

    Your vendor has not defined Fcntl macro O_EXLOCK, used
    at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/File/Temp.pm line 210.

    Your vendor has not defined Fcntl macro O_TEMPORARY, used
    at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.0/File/Temp.pm line 233.

Numerous people have reported that upgrading to version 5.6.1 or higher solved the problem for them. A less involved fix is to apply the following patch, which is also available as a patch file.
