still going to have a few more questions on the standards for packaging perl source into OE recipes, here's the first one.
as i read it, there are two build standards for perl source in OE: cpan.bbclass: Makefile.PL build-based cpan_build.bbclass: (newer) Build.PL build-based so if one peruses the source at CPAN, it should be obvious which build system is relevant, no? so what about source that has *both* those files? https://metacpan.org/pod/Parse::DMIDecode which has both of those install scripts in the top-level directory, although the INSTALL file clearly refers to the newer build system: perl Build.PL perl Build perl Build test perl Build install does it make any logical sense for both of those files to be there? backward compatibility? any other reason? or am i just wildly misunderstanding something? rday -- ======================================================================== Robert P.
