latex-action: sh: xindy: not found

Hello,

Thanks for your good Github Actions : I have a problem when using xindy with glossaries (I need that to sort my glossary entries with accents) with your action ( I have no problem with that in local with MiKTeX)

For my .latexmkrc, I use the glossary_latexmkrc from https://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/support/latexmk/example_rcfiles.

\usepackage[
  toc,
  nonumberlist,
  nogroupskip,
  nopostdot,
  xindy
]{glossaries}
\usepackage{glossary-longbooktabs}
\makeglossaries

I checked and in Tex Live, xindy is installed but it seems makeglossaries use perl (which one cannot find it)

Any ideas ?
