I had a look at our bug tracker for pending patches, and we don't seem to have any pending patch for full Perl support. I've also look at our mailing list archives: a few people have been asking for full Perl support since quite some time, but it doesn't seem that anyone actually did the job. So I think you're good to go :-) Regards, Thomas -- Thomas Petazzoni, Free Electrons Kernel, drivers, real-time and embedded Linux development, consulting, training and support. http://free-electrons.com
