I'm trying to understand why 'perl' is being built for my target

'perl:do_build'
only has a single dependent task, namely 'my-image:do_build'
note: no perl packages end up in my image.

This is just one example where it seems bitbake is doing a lot of
unnecessary (certainly un-asked-for) work.

How can I unravel this mystery?

Thanks for any pointers

Did you have a look at the dependency explorer?

bitbake -g -u depexp core-image-sato-sdk

There you see also reverse dependencies (who depends e.g. on perl)

Regards,
