Re: Building the tree. - Perl module not available on the feeds:

To try to build the perl module Digest:SHA1 (not available on the
feeds) I have written the following bb file

  [hering_at_om-notebook perl]$ cat digest-sha1-perl_2.11.bb
  SECTION = "libs"
  SRC_URI
= "http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/G/GA/GAAS/Digest-SHA1-2.11.tar.gz"
  LICENSE = "Artistic"
  S = "${WORKDIR}/Digest-SHA1-${PV}"

  inherit cpan
  [hering_at_om-notebook perl]$

inside directory

  /stuff/familiar-build/org.handhelds.familiar/packages/perl

the results of running bitbake digest-sha1-perl were:

  [hering_at_om-notebook perl]$ bitbake digest-sha1-perl

I checked the tree and the directory

  /stuff/familiar-build/build-h2200-gpe/tmp/staging/arm-linux/perl/

does not exist.

Can somebody help me?

Regards,

Eduardo.
