Description Mike Seplowitz 2014-05-02 20:41:09 UTC 
configure does detect perl, but the detected/specified perl executable is never added to the .makeconfig, so the tmake scripts always fall back to the /usr/bin/perl in their #! lines.

The following patch propagates the detected perl, similar to make and python.

Thanks, I'll include the patch in the next GIT update.

This bug was previously marked ASSIGNED, which means it should be fixed in
doxygen version 1.8.8. Please verify if this is indeed the case. Reopen the
bug if you think it is not fixed and please include any additional information 
that you think can be relevant (preferrably in the form of a self-contained example).
