Linux ARM64 Docker image missing Perl Time::Piece module for OpenSSL builds

[arghaffari]

Problem

When building Rust extensions with vendored OpenSSL (using openssl-sys with vendored feature), the Linux ARM64 Docker build fails with:

Can't locate Time/Piece.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Time::Piece module)

Context

The openssl-src crate needs Perl's Time::Piece module to compile OpenSSL from source. This module is missing in the ARM64 Docker image.

Affected Workflow

• _extension_distribution.yml
• Platform: linux_arm64
• Docker image used for ARM64 builds

Suggested Fix

Add the Perl Time::Piece module to the Docker image:

# For Alpine
RUN apk add perl-time-piece

# For Debian/Ubuntu
RUN apt-get install -y libtime-piece-perl

# Or install all common Perl modules
RUN apt-get install -y perl-modules

Example Failure

Workaround

Currently, Rust extensions that need TLS must make it an optional feature, which means users who install from community extensions don't get TLS support.

Thank you!
