Did this work before the patch was applied?

If miniperl cannot be found it usually indicates some other kind of other perl configuration problem.

How do you setup poky-tiny?  The http URL you pointed me to doesn't have the local.conf in it.  Or is it the case you set those environment variables and then try to execute a build?

Thanks,
Jason.
