2007-05-06perl-native 5.8.8: Fix for cross-compile badness in the perl build. TheJamie Lenehan1
perl-native configure script was added -I/usr/include/gdbm to the ccflags if you host had a /usr/include/gdbm/ndbm.h header, even though gdbm support is disabled. This patch stops the configure script adding that even if it finds the header there.
2007-05-04perl-native 5.8.8: Apply the patch from perl to stop the .packlist filesJamie Lenehan1
from being installed. Since we use perl-native to do the cpan module installs we need to changed perl-native as well to stop cpan modules from getting .packlist files. This is a new patch since just the .packlist related part has been extracted from the larger patch.
2007-04-30perl 5.8.8: Improvements for cpan modules:Jamie Lenehan1
* Modify perl to install a copy of it's configuration during staging. This will allow us to get at the perl settings for the target when building cpan modules. * Modify perl-native to allow selection of the host or target configuration based on an environment variable. This will allow the cpan class to select the appropriate configuration based on if we are building the native package or not. * Modify cpan.bbclass to set the environment variable to an appropriate value to tell perl native to select the appropriate settings based on if we are building native or target modules. This change fixes some modules that were compiled for the host instead of the target (libversion-perl for example) and fixes up some of cpan modules that include additional subdirectories with their own makefiles.
2007-04-26perl 5.8.8: Minor updates to the packaging:Jamie Lenehan2
* don't install packlists - we don't need them and it saves space (debian patch) * don't split POSIX module over perl and perl-arch dirs (debian patch) * add a -doc package and put all the random documentation and examples from the perl tree in it. * include all the .pod's from over the tree in the .pod package * include the .e2x files in the encode package
2007-04-26perl 5.8.8: Move configuration files for libnet and cpan to /etc/perl toJamie Lenehan2
match the debian configuration. It moves these configuration files to /etc/ to allow for read only /usr installations.
2007-04-24perl 5.8.8: Re-arrange the installation directories to match the debianJamie Lenehan5
style FHS compliant layout rather then OE specific layout that was being used previously. Note that cpan perl modules build under OE won't work with this because they expect the 5.8.7 type layout (this will be fixed later.)
2007-04-24perl 5.8.8: Extract out the common settings from the 32/64 bit configs to aJamie Lenehan3
common file to make it easier to edit the common settings. A few settings were changed to help make the configurations closer.
2007-04-21perl: Add 5.8.8 and use DEFAULT_PREFERENCE to disable it until moreJamie Lenehan13
testing is done. Main differences from the 5.8.7 recipe are: * Always use gcc to link. Same arch's require this, while others can happily use ld. Use gcc for everything. * Fix threading issues by enabling threading in both perl-native and perl. In fact make the configurations almost identical. * No per ARCH configuration, just 32/64/le/be configs. This should stop configurations differing between arch's which made fixing things 5.8.7 difficult. Also means new ARCH's should work without any changes. * Fix up the way miniperl is handled so it shouldn't be the cause of problems for people anymore. * Stop perl-modules depending on perl-dbg, perl-pod, perl-dev etc. * In theory should work for MACHINE="native" now. Only tested for an sh4/glibc target built on an x86_64 host so far. A lot more testing and more cleanups are needed before this is ready to be enabled by default. NOTE: You must build the matching version of perl-native before attempting to build perl (that applies for any version).
