[GRASS-dev] winGRASS compilation: perl not found (needed for MAN)

Hi,

we try to compile winGRASS on a colleague's computer (XP),
following
https://trac.osgeo.org/grass/wiki/CompileOnWindows

./mswindows/osgeo4w/package.sh
...
checking for perl... no
...

At this point, MAN is not created, leading to a tar packaging error later.

But:
$ perl -v
This is perl., v5.10.1 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
...

I am suprised that perl isn't detected by configure. Nothing dramatic of course.
Did any other winGRASS builder observe this problem?

Markus
