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.

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.

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 \
