2 | - Syncing into bleadperl. Minor nits revealed... |
3 | - AutoSplit open filehandle bug was fixed in bleadperl. Averted a |
4 | warning because of this. |
5 | - hint files were only being loaded if . happened to be in @INC. |
6 | A bug/feature of File::Spec was stripping off the current dir from |
7 | the front of hintfile paths causing Perl to look for them in @INC. |
8 | Worked around. |
9 | - Now checking $! for errors if a hint file returns undef |
10 | - compile test was testing all of perl! Scaling back to just ExtUtils/ |
11 | |
12 | 6.06_04 Sun Mar 30 20:34:39 PST 2003 |
13 | - Now looking for ExtUtils::xsubpp through @INC rather than just |
14 | the perl core directories. This helps ExtUtils::ParseXS. |
15 | - Systems which don't put their libraries under their $Config{prefix} |
16 | (OS X, Debian) weren't putting their libraries in the spot declared |
17 | in Config. It was going under $Config{prefix}. |
18 | - Prerequisites check now deals better with X.Y_Z style alpha versions |
19 | - ExtUtils::Liblist->ext() was using $Config{perllibs} which is a 5.6.1 |
20 | thing. Falling back to $Config{libs} if perllibs isn't there. |
21 | - ExtUtils::Command::MM now reads from @ARGV if called with no |
22 | args. Makes the one liner a bit simpler. |
23 | * Restored ExtUtils::Liblist::ext() for backwards compatibility. |
24 | Missing since 5.6.1. |
25 | - Switching to relative dirs for self-building to shorten |
26 | command line lengths. |
27 | - Fixing minor test warning on VMS when compiling ExtUtils::Manifest |
28 | - Skipping STDIN read prompt() tests on 5.5.3. Can't test due to |
29 | eof() not honor tied handles. |
30 | - Config.pm on 5.5.3 doesn't have any concept of vendor*. This was |
31 | causing warnings when generating the Makefile. |
32 | |
33 | 6.06_03 Sat Mar 29 19:44:53 PST 2003 |
34 | - Added AUTHOR and ABSTRACT_FROM info for ppd generation. |
35 | - Added echo() method to portably echo text to a file. |
36 | - Worked around 5.8.0 eval 'require Foo::Bar' bug causing MakeMaker |
37 | to think modules weren't installed. |
38 | - Modernized VMS doc_*_install targets |
39 | - Changed some $(PERL) -e "print ..." code to use $(ECHO). |
40 | - Replaced uses of Delete/NoLog/NoConfirm with $(RM_F) in MM_VMS |
41 | - Fixed some duplicate macros making MMS happy. |
42 | - Fixed $ExtUtils::MM_VMS::Revision. It was just the $VERSION before. |
43 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Command::MM::perllocal_install(), uninstall(), |
44 | warn_if_old_packlist(). |
45 | * Pulling File::Spec::VMS::fixpath() and eliminate_macros() into MM_VMS |
46 | as the new cannonical location. They never should have been in F::S |
47 | in the first place. |
48 | * ExtUtils::Command::eqtime() would truncate the file being equalized! |
49 | Holdover from exclusive .exists usage. |
50 | - Cleaned up hard coded 'echo' and '@' to $(ECHO) and $(NOECHO) |
51 | - $(SAY) is now $(ECHO) on VMS |
52 | - Moved rogue initializations from tools_other() to init_others() |
53 | - Normalized MM_VMS's tools_other() to mostly use its superclass. |
54 | - split_command() was off-by-one when calculating max command line |
55 | lengths causing it to run over on VMS |
56 | - made split_command() a bit smarter, taking into account some macro |
57 | expansion |
58 | - Fixed initialization of OBJECT, DISTNAME and LDFROM on VMS |
59 | - Fixed *_install target uses of File::Spec. |
60 | - Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::vmsish wrapper around vmsish so MM_VMS |
61 | can be compiled on non-VMS machines. For testing. |
62 | * Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Tutorial about writing modules with |
63 | MakeMaker. |
64 | - Removed "always use h2xs" dogma. |
65 | - Added compile & POD test |
66 | * 'make distdir' now generates META.yml module meta-data file. |
67 | Proof of concept. Have to syncronize with Module::Build. |
68 | * Added maniadd() to ExtUtils::Manifest to add entries to the MANIFEST |
69 | * ExtUtils::Command::chmod was not interpreting file permissions as |
70 | octal. Also, docs & tests slightly wrong (thanks Stas Bekman). |
71 | - ExtUtils::Install was hard coding blib/lib and blib/arch, unportable |
72 | [perl #21526] |
73 | |
74 | 6.06_02 Mon Dec 23 20:39:57 PST 2002 |
75 | * Lots of Win32 fixes busted between 6.05 and 6.06_01. |
76 | * split_command() tests still not happy on Win32. Problems with |
77 | shell vs Makefile escaping makes testing difficult. |
78 | * VMS still broken. Need to convert File::Spec method calls back to |
79 | object method calls so the weird FS::VMS->eliminate_macros() and |
80 | fixpath() work again. |
81 | |
82 | 6.06_01 Thu Dec 19 00:14:49 PST 2002 |
83 | - Andreas found that when building the core it is desirable for |
84 | MakeMaker to use a relative path to perl. |
85 | - File::Spec->catfile() has a bug where the resulting file may not be |
86 | canonicalized. This was causing problems when generating manpaths. |
87 | MakeMaker now uses its own fixed override for catfile(). |
88 | - Fixed the POD recognition regex to properly catch /=head\d/ tags. |
89 | * Added a PATCHING guideline document. |
90 | - Updated the class hierarchy in NOTES. |
91 | - Installed.t now cleans up after itself better. |
92 | - Steve Purkis rewrote the manifypods system to use Pod::Man |
93 | rather than pod2man. Its now portable and manifypods() moved from |
94 | MM_Unix to MM_Any. As a result, lots of icky and redudant code went |
95 | away. This also removes the POD2MAN macro, but noone should be |
96 | using that. |
97 | - "make manifypods" now works on Win32 |
98 | - "make manifypods" is now be faster |
99 | - Made MM_Unix->find_perl more portable. Eliminated MM_Win32->find_perl |
100 | override. MM_VMS->find_perl remains. |
101 | * find_perl() can now handle filenames with spaces in them (RT448) |
102 | * find_perl() on Win32 no longer produces spurious "File Creation error" |
103 | messages (perlbug ID 20020709.001) |
104 | - Removed unfinished and unused maybe_command_in_dirs() |
105 | - Removed dead SelfLoader cruft from MM_Unix. |
106 | - Fixed PPD generation when the ppd contains quotes (RT1473) |
107 | - Fixed PPD generation on VMS |
108 | - Moved Win9x specific subdir_x() code from MM_Unix to MM_Win95 |
109 | * Craig Berry fixed hint files on VMS |
110 | - Added the perl_onliner() method to generate portable, safe one-liners |
111 | - Changing hardcoded $self->{MAKEFILE} to $(FIRST_MAKEFILE). |
112 | * Rafael Garcia-Suarez made MakeMaker ignore Subversion control files |
113 | by default. |
114 | - Added MAKEFILE_OLD macro. |
115 | * No longer generating man pages by default on VMS. |
116 | - Improved DISTNAME docs |
117 | * Documented DISTVNAME and VERSION_SYM |
118 | * Documented dist() |
119 | - Seperated dist_core() into dist, tardist, uutardist, tarfile, |
120 | zipdist, zipfile and shdist_target methods. Allows elimination |
121 | of redundant code in MM_VMS. |
122 | - Replaced WARN_IF_OLD_PACKLIST, DOC_INSTALL and UNINSTALL |
123 | one-liners with ExtUtils::Command::MM functions |
124 | - Replaced VMS hand-rolled perl code for TOUCH, CHMOD, RM_F and RM_RF |
125 | with ExtUtils::Command functions. Added TEST_F. |
126 | - Adding clean_subdirs target and clean_subdirs_target() method to |
127 | generate same. This allows easier overriding of an unportable part |
128 | of the clean target. |
129 | - Defined DEV_NULL for MacOS |
130 | - Removed ROOTEXT from MM_MacOS, apparently unused |
131 | - Added $(DIRFILESEP) macro and init_DIRFILESEP to avoid |
132 | hardcoding / or \. Reduces code duplication in the MM_* modules. |
133 | - Added init_platform() and platform_constants() for OS specific |
134 | macros. Moved OS specific macros from constants() overrides there. |
135 | - Added init_VERSION() to setup various *VERSION* macros. |
136 | - Added default wraplist() to make porting easier. |
137 | - Added makemakerdflt_target() to guarantee 'all' is the default |
138 | target. |
139 | - Added special_targets() to handle things like .PHONY and make sure |
140 | they come first. |
141 | - Added init_linker() to initialize linker relatied macros. |
142 | - MM_MacOS constants() disolves |
143 | Moved MACPERL_SRC, MACPERL_LIB, MACPERL_INC from init_main() to |
144 | init_platform(). |
145 | Moved DEFINE and INC tweaking from constants() to init_main() |
146 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION & XS_DEFINE_VERSION from constants() to |
147 | init_VERSION(). |
148 | Eliminated MODULES. Unused and its the same as TO_INST_PM |
149 | Moved .INCLUDE from constants() to special_targets() |
150 | |
151 | - MM_NW5 constants() & init_others() disolves |
152 | Moved LIBPTH, BASE_IMPORT, NLM_VERSION, MPKTOOL, TOOLPATH from |
153 | init_others() to init_platform() |
154 | Moved INCLUDE and PATH definitions from constants() to |
155 | init_platform() |
156 | Moved BOOT_SYMBOL, NLM_SHORT_NAME, PATH and INCLUDE from |
157 | constants() to init_platform() |
158 | |
159 | - MM_Unix constants() goes on a diet |
160 | Moved all macro definitions to init_* methods. |
161 | Added MM_REVISION for completeness |
162 | Using wraplist() instead of manual joining |
163 | Moved .NO_CONFIG_REC, .SUFFIXES and .PHONY to special_targets() |
164 | Moved makemakerdflt: to makemakerdeflt_target() |
165 | Moved INST_{STATIC,DYNAMIC,BOOT} to init_INST() |
166 | Moved EXPORT_LIST, PERL_ARCHIVE & PERL_ARCHIVE_AFTER to init_linker(). |
167 | Moved PERL_MALLOC_DEF to init_platform() |
168 | |
169 | - MM_VMS constants() goes on a diet |
170 | Moved DEFINE from constants() to init_main() |
171 | Moved OBJECT & LDFROM from constants() to init_others() |
172 | Moved MM_VMS_REVISION and PERL_VMS to init_platform |
173 | Added MM_VMS_VERSION |
174 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION, XS_DEFINE_VERSION and MAKEMAKER changes to |
175 | init_VERSION |
176 | Moved .SUFFIXES changes to special_targets() override. |
177 | Eliminated $self->{PM_TO_BLIB}. Its redundant with $self->{PM}. |
178 | constants() now consists only of fixpath() calls. |
179 | |
180 | - MM_Win32 constants() goes away |
181 | Moved .USESHELL to special_targets() override. |
182 | Everything else was redundant. |
183 | |
184 | - Added $(VERSION_FROM) to $(MAKEFILE) dependencies. Helpful for |
185 | XS builds where the version number is very sensitive. |
186 | - export_list(), perl_archive() and perl_archive_after() consolodated |
187 | into init_linker(). |
188 | - Added MM_NW5_VERSION, MM_Unix_VERSION, MM_Win32_VERSION, |
189 | MM_VMS_VERSION. |
190 | - Eliminated duplicate code in constants() overrides |
191 | - Added all_target() for easier customization of what's run by default |
192 | - Eliminated duplicate top_targets() overrides |
193 | - Made tool_autosplit() method portable. Moved to MM_Any. Eliminated |
194 | overrides. |
195 | - Adding realclean_subdirs target and realclean_subdirs_target() |
196 | method to generate same. This allows easier overriding of an |
197 | unportable part of the realclean target. |
198 | - Added oneliner() to create portable perl one-liners. |
199 | - Craig Berry found some typos in ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid's VMS part |
200 | * ExtUtils::Install did not work on MacPerl due to a hardcoded '.' |
201 | * prompt() will now read from STDIN. |
202 | - Craig Berry made sure extliblist() is always called even if LIBS |
203 | is explicitly set to empty. |
204 | * Added DESTDIR to make repacking easier. |
205 | * $(*PREFIX) are returned to the INSTALL* variables. |
206 | * Split $(PREFIX) into $(PERLPREFIX) and $(PREFIX). The former |
207 | holds the location of the core libraries. The latter is the |
208 | optional override prefix supplied by the user. |
209 | * PREFIX overrides all other *PREFIXes when set in the Makefile.PL. |
210 | This restores "make install PREFIX=foo". |
211 | - Added quote_literal() to handle some shell quoting. |
212 | - ExtUtils::MM_VMS now compilable on non-VMS platforms. |
213 | - J. D. Laub made MakeMaker honor $Config{installstyle} |
214 | - Renaming on OS/2 requires the target file to be removed. |
215 | Partially fixed by Ilya, should be applied universally later. |
216 | - Default MANIFEST.SKIP not catching files in subdirs. Fixed by Ilya. |
217 | - Ilya fixed ExtUtils::Liblist->ext when called outside MakeMaker. |
218 | - realclean was duplicating work already done by clean |
219 | - Adding an explicit LICENSE |
220 | - Cleaning up ExtUtils::Install docs. |
221 | - ExtUtils::Install::uninstall() now has default verbose and |
222 | dont_execute arguments. |
223 | - Added some basic ExtUtils::Install tests |
224 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Install::install() for relative dirs |
225 | - Added split_command() and max_exec_len() to deal with long |
226 | commands. |
227 | - Seperated escape_newlines() from quote_literal(). This may |
228 | be pointless. |
229 | - pm_to_blib() now generated with split_command(). 3x speedup. |
230 | - added init_dist() to initialize distribution constants |
231 | - ExtUtils::Install::pm_to_blib() working around open filehandle |
232 | bug in AutoSplit for systems with mandatory file locking. |
233 | |
234 | 6.05 Tue Aug 27 16:09:51 PDT 2002 |
235 | - Output format of the hint file verbose diagnostic is now in |
236 | a format native to the OS, so it broke a test on non-Unixen. |
237 | |
238 | 6.04 Mon Aug 26 18:31:11 PDT 2002 |
239 | - Little fix for pre-5.8 Cygwin test to get the shared library names |
240 | right. |
241 | * disttest on Win9X broken because of forgotten tabs |
242 | * WriteMakefile argument verification should now be accurate |
243 | - Documented the LD flag. |
244 | * Documented prompt() |
245 | * vendor install was not adding to packlist or updating perllocal. |
246 | - Supporting $Config{vendorarchexp} and $Config{vendorlibexp}. |
247 | - Fixed conflict on VMS between logical names and directories |
248 | (bleadperl 17488) |
249 | - Fixed space-vs-tab bug on Netware (bleadperl 17579) |
250 | - Mysterious NetWare fix from Ananth (bleadperl 17376) |
251 | - Support OPTIMIZE in MacOS (bleadperl 17347) |
252 | - Support hints in MacOS (mutation of bleadperl 17347) |
253 | * Default man installation directories were using $(MAN*EXT) to |
254 | generate the directory name. This turned out to be wrong more |
255 | often than right, so we'll use man1 and man3 hard-coded. |
256 | - Debian folks fixed the doc_install targets so the Appending |
257 | diagnostic gives the correct directory for perllocal.pod |
258 | * Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::FAQ |
259 | - Quieted some warnings on MacOS (bleadperl 17669) |
260 | |

261 | 6.03 Wed Jun 19 17:06:14 EDT 2002 |
262 | - Documented that we're clamping down on cargo-cult MakeMaker |
263 | programming. |
264 | - Eased up the parameter verification to leave errant values alone. |
265 | - Doug MacEachern documented LDDLFLAGS and added to known parameters. |
266 | - Possible fix for XS compiles on Cygwin for pre 5.8 perls. |

412 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
413 | - Craig Berry fixed install on VMS (again, I munged the last patch) |
414 | - MakeMaker might not be recognizing it's in PERL_SRC on Win32. |
415 | Made safer. |
416 | - For some reason MM_VMS was using $Config{arch} instead of |
417 | $Config{archname} |
418 | - Fix (well, hack) for creating ABSPERL on VMS. |

427 | [[ API Changes ]] |
428 | * Long deprecated INST_EXE completely removed. |
429 | - Removing TEST_LIBS constant (never seen in a stable MM anyway) |
430 | - Added $default argument to prefixify() for safer prefixification. |
431 | |
432 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
433 | - $mm->{PERM_*} were not being set |
434 | - fixin() redundantly chmod'ing scripts. Let the Makefile do that. |
435 | - The above means MM_Unix will now compile cleanly under strict |
436 | * init_dirscan's search for Makefile.PL's will no longer look |
437 | inside a distdir. |
438 | * Fixed running tests when there are t/'s in subdirs. |
439 | - MM_DOS inheriting from MM_Unix instead of MM_Win32. DJGPP |
440 | appears to be unix-like (bleadperl@15650) |
441 | - Escaping constants with # in them so they're not confused as |
442 | make comments (bleadperl) |
443 | * ExtUtils::MM_Win95 didn't return a true value |
444 | - Fixing disttest when perl is a relative path. |
445 | * Fixed disttest & tests in subdirs on Win95 |
446 | - Fixed recursive Makefile.PL scan on VMS so it skips the distdir |
447 | - Fixed a bug when an alternative MAKEFILE is specified and you're |
448 | using something other than a Makefile.PL (RT 444) |
449 | - Quieting uninit warning when there are no tests. |

486 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
487 | - Removed duplicate NAME macro definition |
488 | - Fixed makemakerdflt target for VMS |
489 | * bleadperl@11460 introduced a bug with recursive Makefile.PL's not |
490 | having '.' in @INC. PDL should build now. |
491 | * MANIFEST.SKIP only working on file names, not full relative paths. |
492 | Only since 5.51_01 (RT 413) |
493 | * make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 was busted by 5.50_01 (RT 423) |

503 | - Fixed some SelfLoader warnings |
504 | * ExtUtils::MM_Win32 not subclassed off of ExtUtils::MM_Any properly |
505 | - Bug in local $ENV{FOO} was causing failures in MM_Win32 tests. |

515 | [[ API Changes ]] |
516 | - Removing xsubpp and typemap from the distribution. These are not |
517 | Perl version independent files and should not be upgraded. |
518 | - Removing ExtUtils::Embed. Version specific module and should |
519 | not be updated. |
520 | - Removing ExtUtils::Constant. Not directly tied to MakeMaker. |
521 | Will be distributed seperately by Nick Clark. |

524 | * realclean now deletes 'dist' directory. |

527 | * Fixing ExtUtils::Installed for VMS |
528 | * Fixed it so MakeMaker can build itself without needing an eariler |
529 | version installed |
530 | * Fixed ExtUtils::Installed so packlists work on VMS |
531 | * ExtUtils::MM_VMS test had a stupid typo that prevented most |
532 | of the tests from running. |
533 | - Fixing VMS so 'mmk' is always 'mmk all' (bleadperl 15218) |
534 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->catfile was calling catdir |
535 | - Added Ken William's "speed up ExtUtils::Manifest" patch. |
536 | - Added Nick Clark's return value of manifest routines patch |
537 | (bleadperl@14978) |
538 | - Merging in bleadperl changes (14438, 14453, 14611, 14612, 14622, |
539 | 14655, 14677, 14688, 14902, 15023, 15187, 15367) |
540 | - bleadperl change 15325 (VMS 'mmk all' hack) rejected. |
541 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->test_via_harness() now using -MExtUtils::testlib |
542 | instead of -I's. This keeps the command line shorter on VMS, but |
543 | it means TEST_LIB doesn't work anymore. May prove problematic. |
544 | - PERLRUN now uses FULLPERL instead of PERL. This avoids |
545 | accidental use of miniperl. May cause problems in the core. |
546 | - Fixed test_via_harness() on VMS so it uses PERLRUN. |
547 | - ExtUtils::Manifest wrongly handling MANIFEST on VMS. |
548 | - ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip broken due to misuse of /o on a regex. |

552 | - htmlifypods and all HTML targets have been removed. It didn't |
f6d6199c |
553 | work properly. A target for HTMLifying of docs will be |
554 | added sometime in the future (read: send a patch). |
555 | - Deprecated ROOTEXT variable removed (its been deprecated for |
556 | more than five years). |
557 | - Removed ExtUtils::Miniperl from the CPAN distribution. Can't |
558 | see how its useful outside the core. |
559 | |
560 | [[ New Features ]] |
561 | * Emacs backup files (ie. *~) are no longer copied into blib |
562 | (this means you won't get Foo.pm~ accidentally installed anymore). |
563 | - prefixify() now returns if the prefixification worked or not. |

568 | * 5.49_01 broke anything that depended on the MM class to be loaded |
569 | with ExtUtils::MakeMaker, like CPAN. Temporarily fixed. |
570 | * Many places wrongfully assume MM methods can be called as class |
571 | methods! Inside and outside of MakeMaker. |
572 | * DOS now acts like Win32 instead of Unix. This should be less wrong. |
573 | - Netware tweak from Ananth Kesari (perl change 14780) |
574 | |
575 | [[ Doc Changes ]] |
576 | * made the docs about the behavior of PREFIX a bit more vague |
577 | reflecting its odd behavior. |
578 | - Replaced references to %Config with things people are more likely |
579 | to understand in PREFIX & LIB docs. |
580 | - Put PREFIX before LIB in the docs. |

585 | * Added ExtUtils::Command::MM to replace large -e "one-liners" |
586 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_UWIN, took UWIN specific code out of MM_Unix. |
587 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_DOS, took some DOS specific code out of MM_Unix |
588 | - Added a dist() override to MM_OS2. |
589 | - Took the OS/2 specific code out of MM_Unix's dist() |
590 | - Starting to quote as many command line switches as possible |
591 | to make VMS have to override less of MM_Unix. |
592 | |
593 | 5.49_01 Mon Feb 4 00:42:40 EST 2002 |
594 | - Default TEST_LIBS now contains absolute paths, so tests can |
595 | chdir without breaking @INC. |
596 | - Some bug fixes in MM_Win32 were missing in MM_NW5. |
597 | - LLIBPERL was not being set. |
598 | - Gisle Aas fixed a warning in prompt when the user hits ctrl-D |
599 | or pipes STDIN to /dev/null. |
600 | - VMS's test is now a proper ->can check. |
601 | - Stray newline in Command.t causing havoc (bleadperl 14441) |
602 | |
603 | * Lots of internal changes. Everything from here on is an internal |
604 | change. |
605 | - Broke ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid out into its own .pm. Temporary. |
606 | - Broke MM and MY out into their own .pm's. Possibly temporary. |
607 | - Broke ExtUtils::MM_Win95 out of ExtUtils::MM_Win32. MM_Win95 |
608 | is now an MM_Win32 subclass. |
609 | - Removed wrapper methods from ExtUtils::Liblist that were |
610 | defering File::Spec loading. Almost everything uses File::Spec |
611 | - Changed most of the 'our's to 'use vars' in prep for 5.005_03 |
612 | backporting |
613 | - Changed ExtUtils::MakeMaker->import(...) cargo-cultery in MM_* |
614 | modules to proper "use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(...)" |
615 | - All non-Unix MM_* modules now directly inherit from MM_Unix. |
616 | They did this before, but in a round-about way. |
617 | - MM_* modules no longer directly muck with @MM::ISA. Instead |
618 | @MM::ISA does that itself. |
619 | - Removed unnecessary require of Exporter in many MM_* modules. |
620 | - MM_Cygwin was using an MM_Unix function directly without have |
621 | explicitly required MM_Unix. |
622 | - Most of MM_NW5 was redundant with MM_Win32. So MM_NW5 is now |
623 | a subclass of Win32 and the reduendant code has been deleted. |
624 | - Replaced lots of calls to File::Spec->updir, curdir and rootdir |
625 | with a global in MM_Unix. Should make things a bit faster. |
626 | - Untabified ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I hate tabs. |
627 | - "Which MM subclass should I use" logic moved from EU::MakeMaker |
628 | to EU::MM. |
629 | - Deprecated EU::MakeMaker::Version_check deleted. |

645 | * Bug on Win32. MAKEMAKER variable not set properly. |
646 | * _02 broke hints files. Now fixed. |
647 | - Minor prereq error formatting glitch |
648 | - ExtUtils::testlib no longer a thin wrapper around blib, now a |
649 | thin wrapper around lib like it was. blib is noisy on 5.6.1. |
