In an effort to understand my problem (code built using Poky/Yocto doesn't
run but the same code built natively on a BeagleBoneBlack running Angstrom
does),
I want to try a previous version of perl. I picked up the recipes from the
Poky/Yocto tree rev 51cbb5ae7 (5.14.2-r12) and put them in one of my local
layers.
I also set local.conf to have PREFERRED_VERSION_perl = "5.14.2"
Now I'm getting these errors:
NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue dependencies
NOTE: preferred version 5.14.2 of perl not available (for item
perl-module-strict)

This usually means one provides something the other doesn't and should.

I don't see how I can be told on one line that 5.14.2 isn't available
but on the next that it will also be built :-(
The odd thing is that this process worked ONCE. I was able to build using
5.14.2 with no errors. I tried some stuff on my board and then needed to
see how 5.14.3 behaved. Now when I want to go back to 5.14.2, I'm stuck
with these errors and bitbake insists on using 5.14.3. I'm trying to go
back to 5.14.2-r12 because that's the version that's on the BBB,
How can I move forward?
Thanks
