Great, how about create a new layer named 'meta-perl', we sould do:
- put these perl database libraries to that layer as a start;
- and than move other perl libraries already existed in oe-core
   to that layer, it includes:
   * meta/recipes-extended/perl/
   * meta/recipes-devtools/perl/
- except the perl libraries which used for lsb test, we should keep
   them where they are;
   * meta/recipes-lsb4/perl/
