<p>During the last stage of the build process, makeblob.pl, under Formaline/src/utils/ is run. The build fails if /usr/bin/perl is missing or doesn’t have the necessary modules included. I got around this issue by compiling my own version of perl and replacing “#! /usr/bin/perl -w” with “#! /usr/bin/env -S perl -w”</p>
