Perl-Native compilation for THUD in Red Hat 8

Perl-Native compilation for THUD in Red Hat 8

Hi Developers,

I recently migrated my machine to Red Hat 8 , I am using Yocto Thud to
build my customized yocto image.
However, I am seeing the following Build Issue while compiling Perl-native

/usr/include/errno.h:48:10: fatal error: bits/types/error_t.h: No such file
or directory
|  #include <bits/types/error_t.h>
|           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
| compilation terminated.

Is there a way that this dependency can be moved to Yocto itself, or is
there some alternate way we can try out.

Thanks in advance,
Aashik

The challenge is that we need some kind of functional compiler. You're
trying to use a much more modern system that didn't exist when thud was
released. Thud is now outside of its support window too.

I'd suggest using a buildtools-extended-tarball to allow thud to build.

Cheers,
