&buildtime; &perl-time-tools; &diskspace; &perl-compsize-tools; &aa-perl-down; &aa-perl-dep;   First adapt some hard-wired paths to the C library: patch -Np1 -i ../&perl-libc-patch; Now prepare Perl for compilation (make sure to get the 'IO Fcntl' right, they are all letters): ./configure.gnu --prefix=/tools -Dstatic_ext='IO Fcntl' The meaning of the configure option: -Dstatic_ext='IO Fcntl': This tells Perl to build the minimum set of static extensions needed for running the Coreutils test suite in the next chapter. Compile only the required tools: make perl utilities Then copy these tools and their libraries: cp perl pod/pod2man /tools/bin mkdir -p /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version; cp -R lib/* /tools/lib/perl5/&perl-version;   The details on this package are found in .
