Hi François, all,
We try to add and build the perl-encode package. Adding the package works fine
with the scancpan script, but the build fails:

Looking at the Makefile(s) generated from Makefile.PL in this package, there
is:
LDFLAGS = -fstack-protector-strong -L/usr/local/lib
which seem to be flags taken from the host gcc installation: /usr/local/lib is
not correct anyway in Buildroot, and fstack-protector-strong is not known by the
Sourcery x86 compiler I was using in Buildroot.
I checked with another perl package (perl-net-dns) which is already included in
Buildroot, and found that its Makefile _also_ includes that /usr/local/lib
string, but it does not fail. I think this must be because it is not trying to
do C compilations.
Anyway, it gives me the impression that this needs to be handled in the perl
package infrastructure, rather than at module level.
I tried using a post-configure hook to remove the /usr/local/lib, but then
bumped into the fstack-protector-strong which is not generic and can thus not be
filtered out nicely.
Do you have any suggestion on how to proceed?
Thanks,
Thomas
