[PATCH 2/9] perf tools: Add warning when disabling perl scripting support due to missing devel files

From: Jiri Olsa
Date: Tue Jun 03 2014 - 16:37:47 EST


From: Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo <acme@xxxxxxxxxx>

We were just showing "libperl: OFF", unlike other features where we
present the user with a message helping have a feature built in.

Fix it by adding the following message:

config/Makefile:450: Missing perl devel files. Disabling perl scripting support, consider installing perl-ExtUtils-Embed
