See #272651 for examples of using vendor prefix. On Linux, Subversion perl modules have been broken since we bumped to 5.42.1 so will fail here. Can ignore as it will be handled in above PR. |

Vendor prefix provides a dedicated location for Homebrew to install files for other formulae, e.g.
perl-xml-parser,subversion, etc.Site prefix is usually reserved for CPAN.
It is also common approach used by Linux distros, e.g. Arch Linux.
Postinstall was for handling building bottles on glibc < 2.26 which would result in an incompatible config.h for newer glibc.
This was fixed years ago with the Ubuntu 22.04 migration so post install is just adding unnecessary modification at install time.
Revision bumping as I plan to update some formulae to use new directory.
