but let's go back to the discussion about why we need perl in the first

Because we need a more powerful scripting language than shell or batch files
for many things. Many of the scripts in question were started by me and I use
Perl. I will not write in another language. Some others are so old that they
predate Python's very existence.
If someone wants to take over and write in CMake or in C++, be my guest.
That's what Alexey did for the syncqt.pl script that predated even me. As far
as I know, that removed the dependency on Perl to compile Qt or to contribute.
What's left that you're seeing?
If the PySide group allows it, I'd be happy to port some perl
scripts to python 😉
