[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #54202] build fails with Bad file descriptor with perl 5.28.0 installed

[Dan Sebald]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #54202 (project octave):

Good investigation Mike.  Here are the v 5.28 release notes:

which leads more specifically to the in-place editing change:

>From what I gather, the movement of a file can no longer take place until it
is completely and successfully closed.  unlinkat(), renameat() and fchmodat()
come into play.  I'll leave the details to someone who knows perl better than
I.
