Details

The 'cdrkit' binary doesn't need 'perl' package.


Additional info:
* package version(s): 1.1.11-2


Steps to reproduce:
In a terminal, use the next command

[root@host ~]# pacman -Ql cdrkit | grep -c 'bin/[a-z]'
20 //14 really, except symbolic link : cdda2mp3(cdda2ogg),cdda2wav(icedax),cdrecord(wodim),readcd(readom), mkhybrid and mkisofs(genisoimage)

[root@host ~]# file $(pacman -Ql cdrkit | cut -d' ' -f2) | grep perl
/usr/bin/dirsplit: a /usr/bin/perl script, ASCII text executable

[root@host ~]# ldd $(pacman -Ql cdrkit | cut -d' ' -f2) 2>/dev/null | grep perl
nothing

This (only one) perl script is not used all the time, or not at all. Add this in optional depend.
This task depends upon

Fixed in SVN trunk so perl will be an optdepends next install. Note perl is a base group package anyway so is expected to be installed...
