Description Leon Schoorl 2012-06-17 16:17:10 UTC

The testsuite of ccache uses perl and fails without it.

Either ccache should depend on perl when testing is enabled.
Or the suite should be patched to not use perl.

Perl is only used in test.sh on line 1469: perl -e 'print "A" x 4017' >$dir/result$i-4017.o

It replaced it with: echo AA..(4015 more A's) >$dir/result$i-4017.o
Which works, but is kind of stupid.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Not have perl installed (I started with a stage3)
2. Have FEATURES="test" enabled
3. emerge ccache
Actual Results:  
[...]
./test.sh: line 1469: perl: command not found
[...]
ERROR: dev-util/ccache-3.1.7 failed (test phase):
