 Extension Dependencies
 ======================
 Inkscape also has a number of extensions for implementing various
-features such as support for non-SVG file formats, etc.  In theory, all
+features such as support for non-SVG file formats.  In theory, all
 extensions are optional, however in practice you will want to have these
 installed and working.  Unfortunately, there is a great deal of
 variability in how you can get these functioning properly.  Here are
 some recommendations:
 
-First, make sure you have Perl and Python.  If you are on Windows you
+First, make sure you have Python.  If you are on Windows you
 should also install [Cygwin](https://www.cygwin.com/).
 
-Next, you will need to ensure the dependencies for each extension is
-present.  Depending on which extensions you need, the dependencies are
-going to vary, but here are some you may need to install:
-
-   * [XML::Parser](http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-Parser/)
-   * [XML::XQL](http://search.cpan.org/dist/XML-XQL/)
-
-If you install dependencies to non-standard locations, such as
-installing XML::Parser someplace in your home directory, you may need to
-take some extra steps to indicate where those dependencies are to be
-found.  For instance, with Perl modules, set the PERLLIB or PERL5LIB
-variable (see `man perlrun`)
+Second, if an extension does not work, check the file
+`extensions-errors.log` located on Linux at `~/.config/inkscape` and on
+Windows at `%userprofile%\Application Data\Inkscape\`. Any missing
+programs will be listed.
