2 | * PL_FILES behavior tweak again to restore old behavior. Sometimes its |
3 | supposed to run before pm_to_blib, sometimes after. |
4 | - Some tests shipped with 'no_plan' which will break on older |
5 | Test::Harness. |

7 | 6.29 Thu May 19 14:15:21 PDT 2005 |
8 | * The behavior of PL_FILES is restored to its pre-6.26 behavior as several |
9 | CPAN modules depend on this. PL programs run via PL_FILES have |
10 | INST_LIB and INST_ARCH in their @INC and so can load any just built |
11 | modules. |
12 | - Now honors PERL_CORE environment variable. |
13 | - Testing to ensure FIRST_MAKEFILE is honored. |

16 | - Fix realclean so it cleans up files installed from ext/ in the core |
17 | - Fix dir_target() so it doesn't warn should any of the INST_* paths |
18 | be the same (as with the ext/ modules in the core) |
19 | - Fix MANIFEST.SKIP so it skips not just _darcs/ but everything inside |
20 | it and any which happen to be in subdirs. |
21 | - MM_AIX forgot to import neatvalue() from E::MakeMaker. |
22 | (bleadperl@24185) |
23 | - Fixed a minor C<<>> POD nit (Scott Lanning) |

25 | 6.27 Mon Apr 4 16:36:14 PDT 2005 |
26 | * Added _darcs to the list of revision control administrative |
27 | directories skipped both in libscan and in MANIFEST.SKIP. |
28 | |
29 | 6.26_01 Mon Mar 28 21:34:39 PST 2005 |
30 | * PL_FILES was broken in the last release. The .PL files were not being |
31 | passed the file they were to generate. |
32 | * How PL_FILES runs the programs and what it does with the value is |
33 | now documented. |
34 | * The default behavior of PL_FILES is now documented. |

38 | 6.25_12 Fri Mar 18 16:15:35 PST 2005 |
39 | - Use the generic dmake search.cpan.org URL in the README so the newest |
40 | version is found. |
41 | - Fixed pm_to_blib trouble on VMS introduced in 6.25_10. |
42 | |
43 | 6.25_11 Tue Mar 15 02:00:20 PST 2005 |
44 | - Fixed minor parent class dependency loop in ExtUtils::MM_Any. |
45 | - Fixed a circular dependency on processed PL files introduced as part |
46 | of RT 6460 in 6.25_02. |
47 | |
48 | 6.25_10 Sun Mar 13 16:14:04 PST 2005 |
49 | - pm_to_blib.ts is gone, back to pm_to_blib (except on VMS). I |
50 | couldn't make it work and still retain backwards compatibility. |
51 | This fixes the recompilation problems that plagued _09 and various |
52 | previous alpha releases. |
53 | |
54 | 6.25_09 Sat Mar 12 10:10:34 PST 2005 |
55 | - Stubbing out PASTHRU on VMS. $(MMSQUALIFIERS) should do the equivalent |
56 | and better. |
57 | - Added test to check for the existence of a compiler so XS tests are |
58 | now possible. |
59 | |
60 | 6.25_08 Tue Feb 8 09:04:36 EST 2005 |
61 | - Fixing xsubpp on VMS. Had a foo/bar path in it. |
62 | - Turning XSUBPP into a runable command by the addition of PERLRUN |
63 | made it unusable as a dependency. Added XSUBPPRUN for that and left |
64 | XSUBPP alone. |
65 | - Removed DESTDIR from PASTHRU as install is not recursive and it can |
66 | make commands too long on VMS. |
67 | - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. Using |
68 | .exists files everywhere. |
69 | - Restore missing *.Opt clean on VMS. |
70 | - Fix .exists files accidentally getting caught in static builds. |
71 | - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. |
72 | - Add Interix support (bleadperl@33892) |
73 | - distsign target changed to distsignature to avoid clash with |
74 | Module::Install |
75 | |
76 | 6.25_07 Fri Dec 31 03:47:20 EST 2004 |
77 | - perllocal on VMS was inserting executables twice. |
78 | - No longer using $(IGNORE) macro. Turns out MMS/K was not honoring |
79 | it. Using "-$(NOECHO) command" which seems to make everybody happy. |
80 | - Executables with no extension weren't getting installed on VMS due to |
81 | a bug in rename(). Broken sometime in this series of alphas. |
82 | |
83 | 6.25_06 Sun Dec 26 17:21:37 EST 2004 |
84 | - Forgot to define BOOTDEP macro. |
85 | - .exists files are back. Directories cannot be used directly as |
86 | targets as their mod time changes too frequently. |
87 | * Added INSTALLBASE as an alternative to PREFIX but haven't documented |
88 | it yet. I'll do that next release. |
89 | |
90 | 6.25_05 Wed Dec 22 07:59:02 EST 2004 |
91 | - One of the 6.25 alphas broke BSD make. It doesn't like "- @ command". |
92 | Fixed by adding an $(IGNORE) macro. |
93 | - 6.25 alphas caused a Makefile to be added to the dist. Fixed. |
94 | - The new cd() code needed to be dependent on dmake or nmake for |
95 | Windows. Not Win9x vs WinNT/XP. |
96 | |
97 | 6.25_04 Tue Dec 21 00:53:06 EST 2004 |
98 | - 6.25_03 was always rebuilding XS modules. |
99 | |
100 | 6.25_03 Mon Dec 20 23:04:22 EST 2004 |
101 | - dir_target() is back. Now each directory to be created has its own |
102 | target like before, but no more .exists or blibdirs.ts files. This |
103 | ensures that each blib directory is created as necessary and fixes |
104 | things like SVN's perl bindings. |
105 | |
106 | 6.25_02 Mon Dec 20 03:31:49 EST 2004 |
107 | - Set PM_FILTER as late as possible so it can see all the earlier |
108 | macro definitions. Necessary for challenged make implementations |
109 | like nmake. Should fix Mail::SpamAssassin installs on Win32. |
110 | [rt.cpan.org 4545] |
111 | - clean and realclean are now more careful about accidentally deleting |
112 | directories instead of files. [rt.cpan.org 6851] |
113 | - small fix for parallel builds, make sure pm_to_blib has run before |
114 | we try to use stuff in blib. [rt.cpan.org 6460] |
115 | - MAKEFILE=foo appears to have been broken for recursive builds and |
116 | several other things. I think this was broken by 6.18. |
117 | |
118 | 6.25_01 Fri Dec 17 21:29:04 EST 2004 |
119 | * *.bak added to the default MANIFEST.SKIP. |
120 | * META.yml will no longer be generated in the build directory. It will |
121 | only appear in the distdir. This should make it easier on developers, |
122 | they don't have to worry about checking the file in all the time. |
123 | * Similarly, the SIGNATURE file will not be updated in the build |
124 | directory. It will only be generated in the distdir. |
125 | - A bunch of redundant Win9x and VMS code removed. |
126 | - 'make test' on Windows no longer pre-expands its list of test files. |
127 | This caused problems on large distributions like bioperl. Thanks to |
128 | Tim Bunce for suggesting the obvious fix. |
129 | |

130 | 6.25 Wed Dec 15 06:59:46 EST 2004 |
131 | - Build.PL was being considered like Module_pm.PL. Build.PL is now |
132 | ignored. [radek@karnet.pl] [rt.cpan.org 8809] |
133 | - Devel::Cover cover_db/ directory now ignored by MANIFEST.SKIP |
134 | |
135 | 6.24_01 Thu Dec 9 00:44:48 EST 2004 |
136 | - Docs encouraged possibly insecure use of /tmp [CAN-2004-0976 via Debian] |
137 | - Remove empty rpath from .so files [bleadperl@23183] |
138 | - At long last the core man page title has its apostrophe. |
139 | - BeOS tests fixed [Ingo Weinhold] [perlbug #32717] |
140 | - Putting a pm_to_blib target back (alias of pm_to_blib.ts) in case |
141 | anyone was depending on it being there (mod_perl was). |
142 | |
143 | 6.24 Tue Nov 30 15:35:13 EST 2004 |
144 | - dir_target() was accidentally named dir_targets() causing problems |
145 | installing some Tk modules. |
146 | |
147 | 6.23 Fri Nov 26 16:01:50 EST 2004 |
148 | - MM_MacOS lost its $VERSION causing some CPAN indexing problems. Enough |
149 | people noticed this to warrant a quick release. |
150 | |
151 | 6.22 Tue Nov 23 22:22:22 EST 2004 |
152 | - Minor glitch in Command.t test on Win32 [thanks Steve Hay] |
153 | * Fixed MANIFEST.SKIP so it avoids all the new *.ts files. |
154 | - Don't spuriously define pasthru arguments |
155 | |
156 | 6.21_03 Sat Apr 3 2004 |
157 | - pm_to_blib and blibdirs stamp files now pm_to_blib.ts and blibdirs.ts |
158 | everywhere because some filesystems insist you have a dot in the |
159 | filename. This eliminates a bunch of special case code. |
03c94fc2 |
160 | - Minor potential glitch in the version check logic. |
161 | - Making Makefile rebuild logic more resistant to inconsequential |
162 | errors when cleaning up things that are going to be rebuilt anyway. |
163 | - Adding SCCS to the list of directories in MANIFEST.SKIP. |
5dca256e |
164 | * Fixing blibdirs so it doesn't rebuild every make run. |
165 | * Using a more conservative MAX_EXEC_LEN for Win98 to allow building |
03c94fc2 |
166 | large modules like Encode. [Greg Matheson] |
5dca256e |
167 | * test target mangled by dmake. Doesn't seem to like q{}. |
03c94fc2 |
168 | [Greg Matheson] |
169 | - instmodsh now using Archive::Tar to create archives if available. |
170 | [Slaven Rezic] |
171 | - instmodsh now using more portable tar flags to create archives. |
172 | [Slaven Rezic] |
173 | - Added FAQ entry for "How do I use a module without installing it?" |
174 | and "How do I keep from installing man pages?" [Joe Cromie] |
5dca256e |
175 | - Fixed finding the default MANIFEST.SKIP if its on a different volume |
176 | [Ilya Zakharevich] |
177 | - When building Perl, we had a chance of picking up the old installed |
178 | xsubpp from @INC [Andreas Koenig] |
179 | - makeaperl() now a bit more intellegent about ignoring perl libraries |
180 | not called libperl. [Ilya Zakharevich bleadperl@22032] |
181 | * MacOS Classic (MacPerl) is no longer supported. Please use |
182 | Module::Build instead. |
183 | * Restored pm_to_blib.ts so pm_to_blib generation will be quiessent on |
184 | VMS. [rt 4675] |
185 | - For simplicity, dir_target() is now a no-op. Should not effect any |
186 | existing uses. |
187 | - Converted utility commands from using $(PERLRUN) to $(ABSPERLRUN). |
188 | This allows distclean to work with SDBM_File. [rt 5616] |
189 | - realclean was using "rm -f" instead of "rm -rf" meaning directories |
190 | wouldn't be properly cleaned. Caused by bleadperl@7952. [rt 5208] |
191 | - fixpath() could undo wraplist() on VMS [rt 4955] |
192 | - ensure ExtUtils::Command::rm_f deletes all versions of a file on VMS |
193 | [rt 4687] |
194 | - hint.t generating improperly named hint files on OS's where $^O |
195 | contains a '.'. They should be converted to underscores. Test |
196 | mistake, not a bug. [rt 5365] |
197 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Command::chmod() so it will work on directories on |
198 | VMS. [rt 4676] |
199 | - parse_version.t was using no_plan causing trouble on older T::Hs. |
200 | [rt 5633] |

202 | 6.21 Tue Nov 11 00:12:56 PST 2003 |
03c94fc2 |
203 | - NetBSD was looking in INSTALLARCHLIB/CORE for libperl instead of |
af7522e5 |
204 | PERL_ARCHLIB/CORE. Would cause problems if INSTALLARCHLIB was changed |
205 | (ie. LIB or PREFIX used). [Jochen Eisinger] |
206 | - Turns out a handful of modules use dir_target(). Restored a version |
207 | for backwards compatibility. |
208 | - Moved blibdirs target from top_targets() to its own section. Lots of |
209 | modules rewrite top_targets() so blibdirs wouldn't be written. |
210 | |

211 | 6.20 Thu Nov 6 02:25:58 PST 2003 |
212 | - Fixing dos2unix on Cygwin. In-place editing doesn't work 100% so we |
213 | take a more conservative approach. |
214 | - Small postamble.t test temp file cleanup fix for Cygwin and Windows. |
215 | - Small Command.t test fix for 5.5.3. No real bug [rt 4290] |
216 | - Small Liblist fix for Cygwin and import libraries [Gerrit P. Haase] |
217 | - metafile error message slightly mangled. Bare $! mistake confusing |
218 | nmake [rt 4285 4301] |
219 | |
a7d1454b |
220 | 6.19 Mon Nov 3 22:53:56 PST 2003 |
221 | - Removed 00setup_dummy.t and zz_cleanup_dummy.t. Tests now setup and |
222 | teardown the dummy modules as needed. |
223 | - Little test glitch on systems without $Config{usevendorprefix} set |
224 | - INSTALL(SITE|VENDOR)MAN*DIR now fall back to $(INSTALLMAN*DIR) |
225 | instead of copying its value. This lets "perl Makefile.PL |
226 | INSTALLMAN1DIR=/some/man/man1" work like expected. |
227 | |
228 | 6.18 Mon Nov 3 20:09:51 PST 2003 |
229 | - parse_version() was blowing over $_ (Ilya Zakharevich) |
230 | - 5.6.2 has the same Cygwin shared lib name fix as 5.7.0. (Gerrit Haase) |
231 | * When $Config{install(site|vendor)man*dir} aren't set it will now |
232 | fall back to $Config{installman*dir}. Similar for |
233 | $Config{install(site|vendor)bin}. This preserves behavior for older |
234 | Perls. |
235 | * Eliminated the dependency on perl.h for pure-perl builds. |
236 | * Eliminated .exists files. Added blibdirs target using MKPATH instead. |
237 | - Removed now unused dir_target() method. |
238 | - Added a little documentation to instmodsh. |
239 | * Made sure PREFIX always has something in it. Module authors like to use |
240 | it when extending MakeMaker. Currently using one of |
241 | PERL/SITE/VENDORPREFIX based on the value of INSTALLDIRS. |
242 | * Added SIGN to generate module signatures with cpansign (Autrijus Tang) |
243 | - Slight tweaks to MAKEFILE_OLD and MAKE_APERL_FILE restoring a mistake |
244 | made around 6.06 to fix static builds on OS/2 |
245 | - Added ExtUtils::Command::dos2unix() |
246 | * manicopy() would make the copied files read-only if 'cp' was used. |
247 | * Fixed prereq check for modules which are also keywords like if.pm and |
248 | open.pm (Autrijus Tang) |
249 | - Made ExtUtils::Command mv and cp return whether or not they succeeded. |
250 | * metafile_addtomanifest now mentions what its doing. |
251 | * metafile will not die if it can't write to META.yml, just emit a |
252 | warning. This lets 'make dist' continue with a read-only META.yml |
253 | - Small fix to identify UWIN on NT (Randy Sims) |
254 | * metafile will not touch the META.yml if it does not need to be changed |
255 | (Thanks to Tim Bunce for this idea) |
256 | * Fixed 'make uninstall' which looks like its been broken since last |
257 | November and nobody noticed. |
258 | - Fixing minor bug in VMS prefixification logic when PREFIX was not set |
259 | by the user. |
260 | - Fixing potential bug in prefixification for relative directories |
261 | * Documented UNINST=1 |
262 | |
30361541 |
263 | 6.17 Sun Sep 14 20:52:45 PDT 2003 |
264 | - Fixing LD so it can be set properly on Win32. (Orton Yves) |
265 | * Fixing the init_PERL() "tack $Config{exe_ext} onto $^X" logic so |
266 | it works on VMS allowing $^X to be found. |
267 | * Fixing make install UNINST=1 on Windows so it can search PERL5LIB |
268 | (Orton Yves) |
269 | - Fixing "could not open MANIFEST" test for OS/2 (and probably others) |
270 | where a read-only file cannot be deleted. |
271 | - Hacking around the fact that when built for debugging, VMS creates |
272 | ndbgperl.exe. |
273 | - Eliminating the never implemented "help" argument. |
274 | |
2c91f887 |
275 | 6.16 Mon Aug 18 01:39:51 PDT 2003 |
276 | * Fixing the max exec length for Windows to account for old |
277 | versions of nmake (the one you can download for free from MS). |
278 | - Hack to normalize //foo//bar paths in ExtUtils::Installed. |
279 | [Sreeji K Das] |
280 | * Adding Module::Build utility files to MANIFEST.SKIP |
281 | - PREREQ_PRINT is supposed to exit after dumping. (Wolfgang Friebel |
282 | bleadperl@20530) |
283 | - maniadd() was trying to open the MANIFEST even if it didn't need to |
284 | causing unnecessary errors for read-only MANIFESTs (rt.cpan.org 3180) |
285 | |
64964e6d |
286 | 6.15 Sun Aug 3 16:41:05 PDT 2003 |
287 | - Make FIXIN on Win32 use the new pl2bat rather than an already |
288 | installed one when building the core (Mattia Barbon) |
289 | |
290 | 6.14 Sun Aug 3 16:23:27 PDT 2003 |
291 | - Adding a reference to the Module::Build META.yml spec in the META.yml |
292 | itself and the metafile documentation. |
293 | - Removed Begin/End comments from manifypods that were getting in the |
294 | way of users adding code to the manifypods target. |
295 | - Putting a POD2MAN macro back as an alias to POD2MAN_EXE and using |
296 | it instead of POD2MAN. This allows people to generate their own man |
297 | installation targets in a backwards compatible way. |
298 | * Adding reference to the Module::Build META file spec in the docs. |
299 | |

300 | 6.13 Thu Jul 31 16:48:01 PDT 2003 |
301 | - Generated META.yml now has the prereqs in sorted order (Andy Lester) |
302 | - Arguments to child Makefile.PLs were still having .. prepended. This |
303 | was exposed by the earlier fix of rt.perl.org 4345. |
304 | - extralibs.ld (for static builds) wasn't being cleaned up. |
305 | |
1b0fc073 |
306 | 6.12 Tue Jul 29 22:19:38 PDT 2003 |
307 | - Should any of your prefixes be /, MakeMaker might lose this and |
308 | prepend your prefix as "prefixyour/directory" rather than |
309 | "prefix/your/directory" (Ed Moy bleadperl 20283) |
310 | - Reversing "realclean was duplicating work already done by clean" |
311 | (CVS 1.124 MM_Unix.pm). Turns out it wasn't a duplication and this |
312 | was causing INST_* files to be left behind if your INST_LIB wasn't |
313 | blib/* as in the perl core. realclean now removes the files copied |
314 | to INST_*. |
315 | - Eliminating xsubpp_version(). No longer relevant. It was checking |
316 | for a feature added to xsubpp before 5.003_07 and doing it in a |
317 | really bizarre way. |
318 | |
319 | 6.11 Thu Jul 24 01:24:37 PDT 2003 |
320 | - Small grammatical doc touch up by Sean Burke |
321 | - Making basic.t clean up better after itself so it can be run |
322 | twice without setting up and cleaning up Big-Dummy again. |
323 | * Noting where to find make in the README |
324 | * Noting that MakeMaker does not produce a GNU make compatible Makefile |
325 | on Windows. |
1b0fc073 |
326 | |
327 | 6.10_08 Mon Jul 21 18:17:06 PDT 2003 |
328 | * $Config{installvendorman*dir} was being ignored and our default |
329 | always used. [rt.cpan.org #2949] |
330 | * Setting NORECURS to true was still resulting in a Makefile which |
331 | tried to recurse into subdirectories which contained a Makefile.PL |
332 | (it simply wouldn't have run them to generate Makefile's). |
333 | This appears to be a rather old bug. |
334 | [rt.cpan.org #2951] |
335 | * [rt.perl.org #4345] Arguments passed to WriteMakefile() would get |
336 | stopped upon by $self->{PARENT} in recursive builds in the process |
337 | of prepending a .. onto it. |
338 | - Command.t now using its own temp directory when testing |
339 | expand_wildcards() so no stray files confuse it. |
340 | * No longer warning about 'postamble' attribute. |
341 | - Added installvars() to list INSTALL* variables so we don't keep |
342 | repeating the list all over the code. |
343 | - Added init_DEST() to create DESTINSTALL* variables for installing |
344 | with DESTDIR set. |
345 | * DESTDIR + PREFIX now does not duplicate DESTDIR. [Redhat #91892 |
346 | and part of rt.cpan.org #2954] |
347 | * DESTDIR is now not directly prepended to the INSTALL* variables. |
348 | installation targets now use DESTINSTALL* instead. This prevents |
349 | the DESTDIR from showing up in places it shouldn't like perllocal.pod. |
350 | DESTDIR is still appearing in .packlist (bug). [rt.cpan.org #2954] |
351 | - MM_VMS->prefixify() wasn't honoring the %Config_Override causing |
352 | some MakeMaker generated config variables to be ignored. |
353 | - MM_VMS->prefixify() was only VMSifying part of its filepaths causing |
354 | internal comparisions to get confused and think it had to prefixify |
355 | when it didn't. |
356 | |
357 | 6.10_07 Sat Jul 5 16:12:52 PDT 2003 |
358 | * Fixing location of perllocal.pod so its always in INSTALLARCHLIB |
359 | instead of one for each perl, site and vendor. |
e3aa3ecb |
360 | - Sun's make treats escaped newlines oddly. Switching oneliner() back |
361 | to using multiple -e's. |
362 | * Bug in libscan() meant that any .pm containing RCS or CVS or SCCS |
363 | in its name (for example, RCS.pm) would be skipped. |
364 | - Command.t was getting confused in the core because it was reading |
365 | files from the core t/ directory, not MakeMaker's t/ directry. |
366 | - MM_OS2 PERL_ARCHIVE_AFTER test wrong for a.out systems (Ilya) |
1b0fc073 |
367 | - Fixing perllocal.pod and XS installation on VMS. An extraneous |
368 | newline was introduced when changing the install macros over to |
369 | $(ECHO). |
370 | - Added $(ECHO_N) macro to emulate 'echo -n' |

372 | 6.10_06 Sat Jun 7 00:55:29 PDT 2003 |
373 | - Whoops, Liblist.t busted on VMS after I turned strict on in |
374 | ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid. Merely a test bug, not a real bug. |
375 | - Fixed metafile_addtomanifest failure so the proper error shows. |
376 | - Fixed metafile_addtomanifest failure diagnostic leaking out during |
377 | the basic.t test on Windows. |

379 | 6.10_05 Fri Jun 6 18:15:30 PDT 2003 |
380 | * Documenting META.yml, NO_META |
381 | * Documenting the fact that distdir will auto generate META.yml and |
382 | alter your manifest. |
383 | * Adding META.yml autogeneration to the FAQ |
384 | - Recognizing comments with leading whitespace in MANIFESTs better. |
385 | - Small ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid problem on VMS (Craig Berry) |
386 | * Fixed "make install UNINST=1". Appears to have been broken somewhere |
387 | around 6.06_01. |
388 | - Documented the fourth argument to ExtUtils::Install::install() |
389 | - install() will now honor a PERL5LIB change between ExtUtils::Install |
390 | loading and install() running when uninstalling shadows. |
391 | - META.yml generation deals gracefully when the MANIFEST is read-only |
392 | (Slaven rt.cpan.org 2723) |

396 | 6.10_04 Fri May 23 01:13:04 PDT 2003 |
397 | - Working around BSD threaading bug in version check. [from bleadperl] |
398 | - Added the Makefile to the dist dependencies. (Slaven Rezic) |
399 | - Reversing the find_perl() version check failure warning introced in |
400 | 6.10_03. Too talkative, warned when nothing was wrong. |
401 | * Fixing META.yml auto-addition when there's no newline at the end |
402 | of the MANIFEST [rt.cpan.org 2444] |
403 | * Making it a bit more obvious in the MANIFEST where META.yml comes from. |
404 | - Fixed $_ clobbering in ExtUtils::Manifest functions. |
405 | - [rt.cpan.org 2591] some LD_RUN_PATH thing (Marek Rouchal) |
406 | - Added core.\d+ files to 'make clean' [rt.cpan.org 2543] (Slaven Rezic) |
407 | - INST_* targets were expanded too early (Stas Bekman) |
408 | - Adding ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes (bytes.pm backwards compat wrapper) |
409 | - Fixing MM_MacOS so it will compile on 5.5.x machines (use bytes wrapper) |
410 | * Reducing perldepend set of CORE/*.h dependencies to what 5.5.3 has. |
411 | 5.5.3 should be able to compile XS again. |
412 | * Eliminating fakethr.h and perlsfio.h from VMS's perldepend as they |
413 | sometimes don't get installed. |
414 | - ExtUtils::Install was making a few directories even with the |
415 | "don't really do it" switch on (Slaven Rezic) |
416 | * can build static linked perl binaries again. Probably damaged in |
417 | 6.06_01 when $self->{MAKEFILE} became FIRST_MAKEFILE. (Nick Clark) |
418 | |
419 | 6.10_03 Fri Apr 11 00:21:25 PDT 2003 |
420 | * Added NO_META WriteMakefile() option to suppress generation of |
421 | META.yml. (Spoon, rt.cpan.org 2359) |
422 | - Spurious linebreak in uninstall_from_sitedirs on VMS (Craig Berry) |
423 | * A bit after 6.05 man page names would come out as lib::Foo::Bar |
424 | if the module name didn't contain a ::. Found with podulators. |
425 | Fixed. |
426 | * Skipping installation of RCS ,v files. |
427 | * 'make ci' was busted between 6.05 and 6.06_01. Fixed. (Andreas) |
428 | - 'make test' was broken when there's no tests. Introduced in 6.06_03. |
429 | (Stas Bekman) |
430 | - Solving some directory depth problems in tests on oldish VMS systems. |
431 | (Craig Berry) |
432 | - Fixing MM_MacOS so it compiles on UTF-8 systems. (Jarkko) |
433 | - Making find_perl() more talkative when the version check fails |
434 | miserably. |

436 | |
437 | 6.10_02 Mon Apr 7 00:57:15 PDT 2003 |
438 | * Removed 2>&1 experiment introduced in 6.10_01 for all non-Unixen |
439 | except for OS/2. Thought Perl might emulate `... 2>&1`. It doesn't. |
440 | Just on OS/2. |
441 | |
442 | 6.10_01 Sun Apr 6 19:31:42 PDT 2003 |
443 | - Making install "Skip ... (unchanged)" message happen consistently |
444 | - Checking file sizes as well as modification times when deciding |
445 | to skip installing a file. |
446 | - OS/2 was using $(RM) instead of $(RM_F) (Ilya) |
447 | - OS/2 needs .dll removed on failed build (Ilya) |
448 | - fixin() was assuming that rename() can overwrite the target (Ilya) |
449 | - manifypods target was empty if there are no pods to manify. Put in |
450 | at least $(NOECHO) $(NOOP) |
451 | - Cygwin test to check for finding pod2man when building the perl core |
452 | removed. No longer relevent. |
453 | - Small fixes for dmake (Mattia Barbon) |
454 | * Added "Reporting bugs" section to the PATCHING doc. |
455 | - Minor bug in compile test missed ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid |
456 | - Removing $(VERSION_FROM) from Makefile dependency. It was too |
457 | annoying to rebuild the Makefile every time the module changed. |
458 | Mentioned it in the FAQ instead. |
459 | - Fixing PERL_ARCHIVE macro on VMS. Apparently it never appeared |
460 | properly before. (Craig Berry) |
461 | - Fixing ECHO on dmake. |
462 | - Adding os_flavor() and os_flavor_is() |
463 | - Making basic.t error output combine STDOUT & STDERR for easier |
464 | reading. |
465 | * ExtUtils::Manifest will now work case insensitively. |
466 | - Fixed 'subroutine redefined' warnings in 00compile.t |
467 | - Fixed it so typemaps are only looked for in the perl core library. |
468 | * Hacking around VMS filesystem problems reconstructing package names |
469 | from filenames in ExtUtils::Installed. (Jesper Naur) |
470 | |
471 | # There was no 6.06, I jumped straight to 6.10_XX because there's been |
472 | # so much change between 6.05 and now. |
473 | |
474 | 6.06_05 Mon Mar 31 02:44:11 PST 2003 |
479d2113 |
475 | - Syncing into bleadperl. Minor nits revealed... |
476 | - AutoSplit open filehandle bug was fixed in bleadperl. Averted a |
477 | warning because of this. |
478 | - hint files were only being loaded if . happened to be in @INC. |
479 | A bug/feature of File::Spec was stripping off the current dir from |
480 | the front of hintfile paths causing Perl to look for them in @INC. |
481 | Worked around. |
482 | - Now checking $! for errors if a hint file returns undef |
483 | - compile test was testing all of perl! Scaling back to just ExtUtils/ |
484 | |
485 | 6.06_04 Sun Mar 30 20:34:39 PST 2003 |
486 | - Now looking for ExtUtils::xsubpp through @INC rather than just |
487 | the perl core directories. This helps ExtUtils::ParseXS. |
488 | - Systems which don't put their libraries under their $Config{prefix} |
489 | (OS X, Debian) weren't putting their libraries in the spot declared |
490 | in Config. It was going under $Config{prefix}. |
491 | - Prerequisites check now deals better with X.Y_Z style alpha versions |
492 | - ExtUtils::Liblist->ext() was using $Config{perllibs} which is a 5.6.1 |
493 | thing. Falling back to $Config{libs} if perllibs isn't there. |
494 | - ExtUtils::Command::MM now reads from @ARGV if called with no |
495 | args. Makes the one liner a bit simpler. |
496 | * Restored ExtUtils::Liblist::ext() for backwards compatibility. |
497 | Missing since 5.6.1. |
498 | - Switching to relative dirs for self-building to shorten |
499 | command line lengths. |
500 | - Fixing minor test warning on VMS when compiling ExtUtils::Manifest |
501 | - Skipping STDIN read prompt() tests on 5.5.3. Can't test due to |
502 | eof() not honor tied handles. |
503 | - Config.pm on 5.5.3 doesn't have any concept of vendor*. This was |
504 | causing warnings when generating the Makefile. |
505 | |
506 | 6.06_03 Sat Mar 29 19:44:53 PST 2003 |
507 | - Added AUTHOR and ABSTRACT_FROM info for ppd generation. |
508 | - Added echo() method to portably echo text to a file. |
509 | - Worked around 5.8.0 eval 'require Foo::Bar' bug causing MakeMaker |
510 | to think modules weren't installed. |
511 | - Modernized VMS doc_*_install targets |
512 | - Changed some $(PERL) -e "print ..." code to use $(ECHO). |
513 | - Replaced uses of Delete/NoLog/NoConfirm with $(RM_F) in MM_VMS |
514 | - Fixed some duplicate macros making MMS happy. |
515 | - Fixed $ExtUtils::MM_VMS::Revision. It was just the $VERSION before. |
516 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Command::MM::perllocal_install(), uninstall(), |
517 | warn_if_old_packlist(). |
518 | * Pulling File::Spec::VMS::fixpath() and eliminate_macros() into MM_VMS |
519 | as the new cannonical location. They never should have been in F::S |
520 | in the first place. |
521 | * ExtUtils::Command::eqtime() would truncate the file being equalized! |
522 | Holdover from exclusive .exists usage. |
523 | - Cleaned up hard coded 'echo' and '@' to $(ECHO) and $(NOECHO) |
524 | - $(SAY) is now $(ECHO) on VMS |
525 | - Moved rogue initializations from tools_other() to init_others() |
526 | - Normalized MM_VMS's tools_other() to mostly use its superclass. |
527 | - split_command() was off-by-one when calculating max command line |
528 | lengths causing it to run over on VMS |
529 | - made split_command() a bit smarter, taking into account some macro |
530 | expansion |
531 | - Fixed initialization of OBJECT, DISTNAME and LDFROM on VMS |
532 | - Fixed *_install target uses of File::Spec. |
533 | - Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::vmsish wrapper around vmsish so MM_VMS |
534 | can be compiled on non-VMS machines. For testing. |
535 | * Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Tutorial about writing modules with |
536 | MakeMaker. |
537 | - Removed "always use h2xs" dogma. |
538 | - Added compile & POD test |
539 | * 'make distdir' now generates META.yml module meta-data file. |
540 | Proof of concept. Have to syncronize with Module::Build. |
541 | * Added maniadd() to ExtUtils::Manifest to add entries to the MANIFEST |
542 | * ExtUtils::Command::chmod was not interpreting file permissions as |
543 | octal. Also, docs & tests slightly wrong (thanks Stas Bekman). |
544 | - ExtUtils::Install was hard coding blib/lib and blib/arch, unportable |
545 | [perl #21526] |
546 | |
547 | 6.06_02 Mon Dec 23 20:39:57 PST 2002 |
548 | * Lots of Win32 fixes busted between 6.05 and 6.06_01. |
549 | * split_command() tests still not happy on Win32. Problems with |
550 | shell vs Makefile escaping makes testing difficult. |
551 | * VMS still broken. Need to convert File::Spec method calls back to |
552 | object method calls so the weird FS::VMS->eliminate_macros() and |
553 | fixpath() work again. |
554 | |
555 | 6.06_01 Thu Dec 19 00:14:49 PST 2002 |
556 | - Andreas found that when building the core it is desirable for |
557 | MakeMaker to use a relative path to perl. |
558 | - File::Spec->catfile() has a bug where the resulting file may not be |
559 | canonicalized. This was causing problems when generating manpaths. |
560 | MakeMaker now uses its own fixed override for catfile(). |
561 | - Fixed the POD recognition regex to properly catch /=head\d/ tags. |
562 | * Added a PATCHING guideline document. |
563 | - Updated the class hierarchy in NOTES. |
564 | - Installed.t now cleans up after itself better. |
565 | - Steve Purkis rewrote the manifypods system to use Pod::Man |
566 | rather than pod2man. Its now portable and manifypods() moved from |
567 | MM_Unix to MM_Any. As a result, lots of icky and redudant code went |
568 | away. This also removes the POD2MAN macro, but noone should be |
569 | using that. |
570 | - "make manifypods" now works on Win32 |
571 | - "make manifypods" is now be faster |
572 | - Made MM_Unix->find_perl more portable. Eliminated MM_Win32->find_perl |
573 | override. MM_VMS->find_perl remains. |
574 | * find_perl() can now handle filenames with spaces in them (RT448) |
575 | * find_perl() on Win32 no longer produces spurious "File Creation error" |
576 | messages (perlbug ID 20020709.001) |
577 | - Removed unfinished and unused maybe_command_in_dirs() |
578 | - Removed dead SelfLoader cruft from MM_Unix. |
579 | - Fixed PPD generation when the ppd contains quotes (RT1473) |
580 | - Fixed PPD generation on VMS |
581 | - Moved Win9x specific subdir_x() code from MM_Unix to MM_Win95 |
582 | * Craig Berry fixed hint files on VMS |
583 | - Added the perl_onliner() method to generate portable, safe one-liners |
584 | - Changing hardcoded $self->{MAKEFILE} to $(FIRST_MAKEFILE). |
585 | * Rafael Garcia-Suarez made MakeMaker ignore Subversion control files |
586 | by default. |
587 | - Added MAKEFILE_OLD macro. |
588 | * No longer generating man pages by default on VMS. |
589 | - Improved DISTNAME docs |
590 | * Documented DISTVNAME and VERSION_SYM |
591 | * Documented dist() |
592 | - Seperated dist_core() into dist, tardist, uutardist, tarfile, |
593 | zipdist, zipfile and shdist_target methods. Allows elimination |
594 | of redundant code in MM_VMS. |
595 | - Replaced WARN_IF_OLD_PACKLIST, DOC_INSTALL and UNINSTALL |
596 | one-liners with ExtUtils::Command::MM functions |
597 | - Replaced VMS hand-rolled perl code for TOUCH, CHMOD, RM_F and RM_RF |
598 | with ExtUtils::Command functions. Added TEST_F. |
599 | - Adding clean_subdirs target and clean_subdirs_target() method to |
600 | generate same. This allows easier overriding of an unportable part |
601 | of the clean target. |
602 | - Defined DEV_NULL for MacOS |
603 | - Removed ROOTEXT from MM_MacOS, apparently unused |
604 | - Added $(DIRFILESEP) macro and init_DIRFILESEP to avoid |
605 | hardcoding / or \. Reduces code duplication in the MM_* modules. |
606 | - Added init_platform() and platform_constants() for OS specific |
607 | macros. Moved OS specific macros from constants() overrides there. |
608 | - Added init_VERSION() to setup various *VERSION* macros. |
609 | - Added default wraplist() to make porting easier. |
610 | - Added makemakerdflt_target() to guarantee 'all' is the default |
611 | target. |
612 | - Added special_targets() to handle things like .PHONY and make sure |
613 | they come first. |
614 | - Added init_linker() to initialize linker relatied macros. |
615 | - MM_MacOS constants() disolves |
616 | Moved MACPERL_SRC, MACPERL_LIB, MACPERL_INC from init_main() to |
617 | init_platform(). |
618 | Moved DEFINE and INC tweaking from constants() to init_main() |
619 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION & XS_DEFINE_VERSION from constants() to |
620 | init_VERSION(). |
621 | Eliminated MODULES. Unused and its the same as TO_INST_PM |
622 | Moved .INCLUDE from constants() to special_targets() |
623 | |
624 | - MM_NW5 constants() & init_others() disolves |
625 | Moved LIBPTH, BASE_IMPORT, NLM_VERSION, MPKTOOL, TOOLPATH from |
626 | init_others() to init_platform() |
627 | Moved INCLUDE and PATH definitions from constants() to |
628 | init_platform() |
629 | Moved BOOT_SYMBOL, NLM_SHORT_NAME, PATH and INCLUDE from |
630 | constants() to init_platform() |
631 | |
632 | - MM_Unix constants() goes on a diet |
633 | Moved all macro definitions to init_* methods. |
634 | Added MM_REVISION for completeness |
635 | Using wraplist() instead of manual joining |
636 | Moved .NO_CONFIG_REC, .SUFFIXES and .PHONY to special_targets() |
637 | Moved makemakerdflt: to makemakerdeflt_target() |
638 | Moved INST_{STATIC,DYNAMIC,BOOT} to init_INST() |
639 | Moved EXPORT_LIST, PERL_ARCHIVE & PERL_ARCHIVE_AFTER to init_linker(). |
640 | Moved PERL_MALLOC_DEF to init_platform() |
641 | |
642 | - MM_VMS constants() goes on a diet |
643 | Moved DEFINE from constants() to init_main() |
644 | Moved OBJECT & LDFROM from constants() to init_others() |
645 | Moved MM_VMS_REVISION and PERL_VMS to init_platform |
646 | Added MM_VMS_VERSION |
647 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION, XS_DEFINE_VERSION and MAKEMAKER changes to |
648 | init_VERSION |
649 | Moved .SUFFIXES changes to special_targets() override. |
650 | Eliminated $self->{PM_TO_BLIB}. Its redundant with $self->{PM}. |
651 | constants() now consists only of fixpath() calls. |
652 | |
653 | - MM_Win32 constants() goes away |
654 | Moved .USESHELL to special_targets() override. |
655 | Everything else was redundant. |
656 | |
657 | - Added $(VERSION_FROM) to $(MAKEFILE) dependencies. Helpful for |
658 | XS builds where the version number is very sensitive. |
659 | - export_list(), perl_archive() and perl_archive_after() consolodated |
660 | into init_linker(). |
661 | - Added MM_NW5_VERSION, MM_Unix_VERSION, MM_Win32_VERSION, |
662 | MM_VMS_VERSION. |
663 | - Eliminated duplicate code in constants() overrides |
664 | - Added all_target() for easier customization of what's run by default |
665 | - Eliminated duplicate top_targets() overrides |
666 | - Made tool_autosplit() method portable. Moved to MM_Any. Eliminated |
667 | overrides. |
668 | - Adding realclean_subdirs target and realclean_subdirs_target() |
669 | method to generate same. This allows easier overriding of an |
670 | unportable part of the realclean target. |
671 | - Added oneliner() to create portable perl one-liners. |
672 | - Craig Berry found some typos in ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid's VMS part |
673 | * ExtUtils::Install did not work on MacPerl due to a hardcoded '.' |
674 | * prompt() will now read from STDIN. |
675 | - Craig Berry made sure extliblist() is always called even if LIBS |
676 | is explicitly set to empty. |
677 | * Added DESTDIR to make repacking easier. |
678 | * $(*PREFIX) are returned to the INSTALL* variables. |
679 | * Split $(PREFIX) into $(PERLPREFIX) and $(PREFIX). The former |
680 | holds the location of the core libraries. The latter is the |
681 | optional override prefix supplied by the user. |
682 | * PREFIX overrides all other *PREFIXes when set in the Makefile.PL. |
683 | This restores "make install PREFIX=foo". |
684 | - Added quote_literal() to handle some shell quoting. |
685 | - ExtUtils::MM_VMS now compilable on non-VMS platforms. |
686 | - J. D. Laub made MakeMaker honor $Config{installstyle} |
687 | - Renaming on OS/2 requires the target file to be removed. |
688 | Partially fixed by Ilya, should be applied universally later. |
689 | - Default MANIFEST.SKIP not catching files in subdirs. Fixed by Ilya. |
690 | - Ilya fixed ExtUtils::Liblist->ext when called outside MakeMaker. |
691 | - realclean was duplicating work already done by clean |
692 | - Adding an explicit LICENSE |
693 | - Cleaning up ExtUtils::Install docs. |
694 | - ExtUtils::Install::uninstall() now has default verbose and |
695 | dont_execute arguments. |
696 | - Added some basic ExtUtils::Install tests |
697 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Install::install() for relative dirs |
698 | - Added split_command() and max_exec_len() to deal with long |
699 | commands. |
700 | - Seperated escape_newlines() from quote_literal(). This may |
701 | be pointless. |
702 | - pm_to_blib() now generated with split_command(). 3x speedup. |
703 | - added init_dist() to initialize distribution constants |
704 | - ExtUtils::Install::pm_to_blib() working around open filehandle |
705 | bug in AutoSplit for systems with mandatory file locking. |
706 | |
707 | 6.05 Tue Aug 27 16:09:51 PDT 2002 |
708 | - Output format of the hint file verbose diagnostic is now in |
709 | a format native to the OS, so it broke a test on non-Unixen. |
710 | |
711 | 6.04 Mon Aug 26 18:31:11 PDT 2002 |
712 | - Little fix for pre-5.8 Cygwin test to get the shared library names |
713 | right. |
714 | * disttest on Win9X broken because of forgotten tabs |
715 | * WriteMakefile argument verification should now be accurate |
716 | - Documented the LD flag. |
717 | * Documented prompt() |
718 | * vendor install was not adding to packlist or updating perllocal. |
719 | - Supporting $Config{vendorarchexp} and $Config{vendorlibexp}. |
720 | - Fixed conflict on VMS between logical names and directories |
721 | (bleadperl 17488) |
722 | - Fixed space-vs-tab bug on Netware (bleadperl 17579) |
723 | - Mysterious NetWare fix from Ananth (bleadperl 17376) |
724 | - Support OPTIMIZE in MacOS (bleadperl 17347) |
725 | - Support hints in MacOS (mutation of bleadperl 17347) |
726 | * Default man installation directories were using $(MAN*EXT) to |
727 | generate the directory name. This turned out to be wrong more |
728 | often than right, so we'll use man1 and man3 hard-coded. |
729 | - Debian folks fixed the doc_install targets so the Appending |
730 | diagnostic gives the correct directory for perllocal.pod |
731 | * Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::FAQ |
732 | - Quieted some warnings on MacOS (bleadperl 17669) |
733 | |
a884ca7c |
734 | 6.03 Wed Jun 19 17:06:14 EDT 2002 |
735 | - Documented that we're clamping down on cargo-cult MakeMaker |
736 | programming. |
737 | - Eased up the parameter verification to leave errant values alone. |
738 | - Doug MacEachern documented LDDLFLAGS and added to known parameters. |
739 | - Possible fix for XS compiles on Cygwin for pre 5.8 perls. |
740 | |
d5d4ec93 |
741 | 6.02 Sat Jun 15 19:46:06 EDT 2002 |
742 | - ExtUtils::Installed->modules() was broken in scalar context |
