Re: Perl modules.

Hi list.

I downloaded the build tree with git, following the instructions
on the familiar page. I also ran the setup script and bitbake
but I cannot understand what should I do to build perl ipks...
Is there a link that explains how this thing works? I know
you are busy people and I really do not want to take your
time with such beginners questions. Can you indicate a
book, an URL or something else?

Thanks again,

Eduardo.
