Subject: build: "make check" now fails in a friendlier manner for missing Perl
X-Git-Tag: v7.3~4
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0e945ebcc5cb018771819f8b91737db3298bab02;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fcoreutils.git

build: "make check" now fails in a friendlier manner for missing Perl

* doc/Makefile.am (sc-lower-case-var): Don't redirect stderr of
$(PERL) (which is sometimes build-aux/missing) to /dev/null,
so that a failing "make check" explains that Perl is not installed.
Reported by James Youngman.
