perl-lite is a minimal installation of perl. The basic list of included
files is adapted from the files in the debian perl-base package.

We add a couple of the utilites such as pod2man, pod2html and others
which are commonly used when compiling software packages. A full
installation of perl requires more than 30MB of space. The perl-lite
installation as used here occupies slightly more than 2MB.

The list could be refined to include either more or less files. The
subdirectory micro-perl contains more info on creating an even smaller
installation.

If you find that something is missing or is unneeded in these packages
please send an e-mail to amigo@ibiblio.org and include the word
perl-lite in the subject line.

Have fun with perl-lite!
