Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: General, defect)

Description

Attachment: patch

If I configure my build with "../configure", I get:

make[3]: Entering directory `/home/blassey/src/mozilla-central/objdir-droid/media/libvpx'
./host_obj_int_extract rvds vpx_asm_offsets.o | /usr/bin/perl ../media/libvpx/build/make/ads2gas.pl > vpx_asm_offsets.asm
/usr/bin/perl ../media/libvpx/build/make/ads2gas.pl < ../../../media/libvpx/vp8/decoder/arm/detokenize.asm > detokenize.asm.s

if I configure my build with "~/src/mozilla-central/configure" everything works fine.

Don't change $PERL, we expand it in configure everywhere else, for better or for worse.
