#2811: Formaline Optionally use non-system Perl
Reporter: Yosef Zlochower Status: new Milestone: Version: Type: proposal Priority: minor Component: Cactus
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”
