Aboriginal Linux uses Busybox, not GNU coreutils right now. There is also related project maintained by Rob Landley called toybox - main goal is to write simpler (code-wise) BSD-licensed replacement for Busybox. Last weeks toybox mailing list was busy, so I'm looking forward to that.

I compiled just default modules for Perl. Still this is good question, probably Python is more a issue: think Mercurial. btw. I'm more awk type (lua is also nice) ;) On Tue, 14 Feb 2012 16:59:14 -0500 Kurt H Maier wrote: > > Perl has facilities to easily embed modules.

I have seen too much configure errors, compilation errors, linker errors and make errors, that I was close to mental breakdown. I feel like this guy [1] - it is a great presentation (less than 25 minutes worth spending time) about debugging complex systems. I agree with his remarks that: "It's packaging other people's software that makes system administrators violent people". [1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieCTIPG43no
