------- Additional Comments From thomas-forum AT orgis.org 2006-08-16 09:52
-------
Update:

1. main Makefile has precaution for perl being there or not
2. manual/Makefile fails without perl because it lacks the check (preparing a
texinfo thing)
3. (some other makefile, too ...?)
4. after removing texinfo, glibs builds fine

So the forced perl dependency is due to a bug in the manual/Makefile (or the
build/configure system)...
Perhaps one can ask if user wants that docs and drop perl as dependency if
not.
Not sure how much patching will be needed (what additional parts have the
same
issue)... I should ask glibc ppl to fix that, though.
