More help building Perl stuff ( almost there )

[Ludovico de Nittis]

Hi,
from what I can see the "perl-MakefilePL-Makefile" is this file here
https://github.com/flathub/org.frozen_bubble.frozen-bubble/blob/master/perl-MakefilePL-Makefile

So if you add a fragment in a sub-directory maybe the problem is only
that this "perl-MakefilePL-Makefile" is not visible anymore because it
is located in another folder.
Changing the path to:

"path": "../perl-MakefilePL-Makefile",

should solve your problem.
