since at least glibc-2.6.1, the timestamp between C-translit.h and C-translit.h.in has been bjorked ... this causes unnecessary depend on perl and regeneration of this file -rw-rw-r-- jakub/jakub 60864 2007-04-28 01:46 glibc-2.6.1/locale/C-translit.h -rw-rw-r-- jakub/jakub 82789 2007-04-28 01:50 glibc-2.6.1/locale/C-translit.h.in -rw-rw-r-- jakub/jakub 60864 2007-04-28 01:46 glibc-2.7/locale/C-translit.h -rw-rw-r-- jakub/jakub 82789 2007-04-28 01:50 glibc-2.7/locale/C-translit.h.in -rw-r--r-- roland/glibc 60864 2007-04-28 01:46 glibc-2.9-20081201/locale/C-translit.h -rw-r--r-- roland/glibc 82789 2007-04-28 01:50 glibc-2.9-20081201/locale/C-translit.h.in
