Package: suck
Version: 4.3.2-5
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Although suck build-depends on libperl-dev, the embedded perl support
is currently not enabled. From the buildd log:
checking for libperl.a... not found
I'm attaching a patch that enables the Perl support again (after running
autoconf, of course.) This compiles with both Perl 5.8 and the upcoming
5.10 (currently in experimental). I haven't tested it at all, though.
Alternatively, please drop the libperl-dev dependency and explicitly
disable the Perl support. It looks like nobody has been missing it for
a long time.
Cheers,
