Description James Coates 2013-01-23 15:23:39 CET

Description of problem:

irssi is capable of supporting Perl scripts that add extra functionality using the /script load or /run commands. However, it looks as if this version of irssi has been compiled without Perl support, even if irssi-perl is installed as a dependency. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

0.8.12

How reproducible:

Every time.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open irssi
2. Type /run usercount.pl or /script load usercount.pl

You need to load the perl plugin, using Â«/load perlÂ».
I just tested it, and it works.

Closing.

This should perhaps be documented somewhere.
