[perl #37673] [PATCH] check_progs is not portable

2005-11-14 Thread Joshua Hoblitt via RT
I've imported File::Which 0.05 into the parrot tree as r9959 and I've applied this patch as r9960. If or when there is a workable parrot 'maintainer' bundle on CPAN and an optional module detection mechanism as part of the configure system r9959 can be backed out. Cheers, -J --
