Perl tools First apply the following patch to adapt some hard-wired paths to the C library: patch -Np1 -i ../&perl-libc-patch; The configuration script needs to be adjusted to run in the restricted LFS environment: chmod -v 0775 Configure sed -i -e '/Restore computed paths/i libswanted=""' Configure Prepare Perl for compilation: sh Configure -des -Dprefix=/tools Build the package: make CLDFLAGS='-lm' Although Perl comes with a test suite, it would be better to wait until it is insalled in the next chapter. Only a few of the utilities and libraries, need to be installed at this time: cp -v perl cpan/podlators/pod2man /tools/bin mkdir -pv /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version; cp -Rv lib/* /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version;
