I'm attempting to install yum-0.9.4-2_8x.noarch.rpm on a RedHat 8.0 box.
rpm tells me that yum requires perl. Why would that be the case? I'm
trying to build a box without perl. I've installed the source rpm and I
don't see anywhere that perl is actually used.
Is perl really required? If not, is my best bet to rebuild the rpm from
source without the perl reference, or is there a newer version I should
be using?
I've searched the yum mailing list and googled, but I can't find any
reference to this.
Thanks for any help.
Eric.
