The command "bitbake universe -c fetch" currently throws a ton of warnings as there are many 'impossible' dependencies. In some cases these variants may never have worked and were just added by copy and paste of recipes. In some cases they once clearly did work but became broken somewhere along the way. Users may also be carrying local bbappend files which add further BBCLASSEXTEND. Having universe fetch work without warnings is desireable so clean up the broken variants. Anyone actually needing something dropped here can propose adding it and the correct functional dependencies back quite easily. This also then ensures we're not carrying or fixing things nobody uses.

meta-perl
=========
This layer provides commonly-used perl related recipes such as perl libraries
in the Comprehensive Perl Archive Network.
Contents and Help
-----------------
In this section the contents of the layer is listed, along with a short
help for each package.
-- libdbi-perl --
The DBI is a database access module for the Perl programming language.
It defines a set of methods, variables, and conventions that provide
a consistent database interface, independent of the actual database
being used.

-- libdbd-sqlite-perl --
DBD::SQLite is a Perl DBI driver for SQLite, that includes the entire
thing in the distribution. So in order to get a fast transaction capable
RDBMS working for your perl project you simply have to install this
module, and nothing else.
usage: there is a test case to show you how it works
1) vim local.conf:
...
IMAGE_INSTALL:append = " libdbd-sqlite-perl"
PERL_DBM_TEST = "1"
...
2) build core-image-sato and boot the target
3) run "sqlite-perl-test.pl" on target. This script includes five
operations create/insert/update/delete/select to do with a table.
More information can be found in the recipe's git log.
Dependencies

This layer depends on:

branch: kirkstone
Adding the meta-perl layer to your build
---------------------------------------
In order to use this layer, you need to make the build system aware of
it.
Assuming the meta-perl layer exists at the top-level of your
yocto build tree, you can add it to the build system by adding the
location of the meta-perl layer to bblayers.conf, along with any
other layers needed. e.g.:
BBLAYERS ?= " \
/path/to/oe-core/meta \
/path/to/layer/meta-perl \
Maintenance
