Bug 3951

Building perf with a minimal image by adding the below to local.conf fails with a missing dependency on 'bash':

  Can't install perf-3.4-r8@qemux86: no package provides /bin/bash

Added to local.conf:

 IMAGE_INSTALL_append = " perf"

Perf should be usable with a minimal image either the dependency should be dragged in or the reason for it eliminated.
