(not sure if I missed something?) > I think those we could keep in files/ (this will require a small patch against libxcrypt configure.) We would need to ship `crypt-hashes.h`, `crypt-symbol-vers.h`, `crypt.h`, `xcrypt.h`, and `libcrypt.map`. There is also . And it isn't an insignificant patch. (those are all of the headers generated by perl, none of which I can find in the release tarball, so not sure if I missed something) The only change necessary for perl-bootstrap is that it needs `-Dd_crypt=undef"` to avoid a dependency cycle. Aside from that it can be completely identical. The build time for perl is also pretty small. Not sure if there is a better alternative?
