Description Kevin Ryde 2011-01-18 21:05:22 UTC 
I believe the ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.03 which comes with perl 5.8.0 doesn't have the $(ECHO) macro used in the Gtk2 Makefile.PL.  I tried a build with 5.8.0 and it bombed for a bad "[" bit when $(ECHO) was empty.
Comment 1 GNOME Infrastructure Team 2021-07-05 12:22:28 UTC 
GNOME is going to shut down bugzilla.gnome.org in favor of gitlab.gnome.org.
As part of that, we are mass-closing older open tickets in bugzilla.gnome.org
which have not seen updates for a longer time (resources are unfortunately
quite limited so not every ticket can get handled).

If you can still reproduce the situation described in this ticket in a recent
and supported software version, then please follow
  https://wiki.gnome.org/GettingInTouch/BugReportingGuidelines
and create a new ticket at
  https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME?utf8=%E2%9C%93&filter=perl-

Thank you for your understanding and your help.
