Hey all,As I've talked about before[1] there's build reproducibility issues depending on when perl-native is built. After talking with Mark Hatle a little bit I started thinking about relocation in perl again and it turns out that starting in 5.10, upstream perl supports relocation. This in turn makes it less painful to make perl-native be what we use when we want perl runtime, nearly everywhere (since you can use pstaging to avoid it the time next time). This patch set drops perl 5.8.8 and bumps all of the perl stuffs PR, switches to relocatable perl-native, and then the big switch to using it early. Build tested on {minimal+qemuarm,angstrom-2008.1+beagleboard}+all perl libs and run tested on minimal+qemuarm+native-sdk-image. [1]: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg08445.html
Oh, and since this is kinda a big deal, I really hope some of the folks that only get a chance to do this on the weekend will chime in or ask I give their dist/machine/image combo or two a spin before pushing (which I'm happy to do).
