Perl is not included in public-stacks/buildsystems.bst
Context
With some help from #freedesktop-sdk we realized that, since perl excludes itself on the devel
domain, and public-stacks/buildsystems.bst
excludes the devel
domain, it's impossible to actually use the bundled autotools. This isn't very useful.
Perl itself is apparently excluded in the devel
domain because dependants use it in scripts that are only needed in devel
. Ideally we'd express this dependency in some other way.
Description
We should:
-
Stop excluding the devel domain in public-stacks/buildsystems.bst
-
Think about how to handle the perl dependency so that we don't need to do the former
Acceptance Criteria
public-stacks/buildsystems.bst
should be usable as a junction element that makes autotools "just work".
