From efe47f8f2c7d4e2b7ebedc15dbdd2cc51912b56f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Brandon Casey Date: Thu, 24 Sep 2009 13:21:03 -0500 Subject: [PATCH] perl/Makefile.PL: detect MakeMaker versions incompatible with DESTDIR It appears that ExtUtils::MakeMaker versions older than 6.11 do not implement the DESTDIR mechanism. So add a test to the generated perl.mak to detect when DESTDIR is used along with a too old ExtUtils::MakeMaker and abort with a message suggesting the use of NO_PERL_MAKEMAKER.
