From 421c24b979198a7a7b54f8e89d58dc1bb80c8df7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eli Schwartz Date: Thu, 29 Aug 2024 13:11:40 -0400 Subject: build: remove configure dependency on perl (#1789) It is totally unused. In 2010, nautilus removed a perl script used to generate enums: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/nautilus/-/commit/75a03a440ebff23ccbf8674ca4a0e9f6475ebbb8 Before then, perl was needed to build. After this commit, nautilus still had messy code to check for perl availability but did nothing with it. Across multiple forks and reinitialized git repositories that dropped all commit history, it turns out that caja still has that messy code too. --- configure.ac | 1 - 1 file changed, 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/configure.ac b/configure.ac index fa3c4f08..70b61787 100644 --- a/configure.ac +++ b/configure.ac @@ -134,7 +134,6 @@ fi dnl ========================================================================== -AC_CHECK_PROGS(PERL, perl5 perl) AC_PATH_PROG(GLIB_GENMARSHAL, glib-genmarshal) dnl ========================================================================== -- cgit v1.2.1
