[UDUNITS #OKW-899269]: problem when installing UDUNITS on UBUNTU

["Unidata UDUNITS Support" <support-udunits@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Michel Mesquita,

You're most welcome.

It can be difficult to get the UDUNITS package (or any package) to work
with Perl because the same compilation environment must be used.  The
Perl interface can be bypassed by setting the environment variable
PERL to the empty string before executing the "configure" script.

This won't be a problem beginning with the next release.
