IIRC, the only place perl is used in all of Sage is for the PARI and
NTL build systems.
I don't know what that implies about needed modules though.
This is incorrect. R needs perl of at least 5.8.0
configure.ac has:
if test "${r_cv_prog_perl_v5}" != yes; then
AC_MSG_ERROR([Building R requires Perl >= 5.8.0])
fi
Since that was released in 2002, there should be no problem with people having
that.
