Details

Description:
The 'lm_sensors' binary doesn't need 'perl' package (add this in optional depend).


Additional info:
* package version(s): 3.3.1-2


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

[root@host ~]# pacman -Ql lm_sensors | grep -c 'bin/[a-z]'
9 binaries
=> /usr/bin/{sensors,sensors-conf-convert}
=> /usr/sbin/{fancontrol,healthd,isadump,isaset,pwmconfig,sensord,sensors-detect}

[root@host ~]# file $(pacman -Ql lm_sensors | cut -d' ' -f2) | grep perl
/usr/bin/sensors-conf-convert: a /usr/bin/perl -w -pi.old script, ASCII text executable
/usr/sbin/sensors-detect: a /usr/bin/perl -w script, ASCII text executable

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