Description Alexander Miller 2023-04-14 23:08:43 UTC 
Perl is used to build the .info files.

When neither "perl" nor "test" flags are enabled, ac_cv_path_PERL=no passed to configure also disables building and installing the .info files. One would expect that USE=doc is sufficient to get them installed.

So we need "doc? ( dev-lang/perl )" in BDEPEND and COMMON_DEPEND; and the ac_cv_path_PERL=... line needs to be adjusted accordingly.
