Subject: [PATCH 4/4] perf trace/scripting: Add Fedora libperl install note to doc
Date: Mon, 30 Nov 2009 01:18:49 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1259565529-6407-5-git-send-email-tzanussi@gmail.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1259565529-6407-1-git-send-email-tzanussi@gmail.com>
Fedora needs perl-ExtUtils-Embed for Perl scripting, which also brings
along libperl-devel; note this info for the convenience of Fedora
users.
