Oh, I see. Well CMake used to give an error saying "GNUWIN32_DIR" not found
if it was not explicitly specified in the CMake GUI. Now it is completely
missing in the GUI and setting it manually does not change anything. I
meant to ask about this change.
But I just compared 2.3.x with master real quick, I think this find Perl
thing is new, am I right? Because I can't find anything related to Perl in
2.3.x. I guess we should fix it like we do with Python:
if(GNUWIN32_DIR)
list(APPEND CMAKE_PROGRAM_PATH "${GNUWIN32_DIR}/Python" )
endif()
For that we would need to restore the thing where CMake asks about
GNUWIN32_DIR, because now, even if I specify it manually, I guess it will
be overwritten at line 9. I don't know exactly how it was before, but this
line does not exist 2.3.x.
