2 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
3 | - Craig Berry fixed install on VMS (again, I munged the last patch) |
4 | - MakeMaker might not be recognizing it's in PERL_SRC on Win32. |
5 | Made safer. |
6 | - For some reason MM_VMS was using $Config{arch} instead of |
7 | $Config{archname} |
8 | - Fix (well, hack) for creating ABSPERL on VMS. |
9 | |
10 | [[ Test Fixes ]] |
11 | - INST.t has to tell MakeMaker it's in the PERL_CORE |
12 | - INST_LIB doesn't change if it's in the core |
13 | |

15 | [[ API Changes ]] |
16 | * Long deprecated INST_EXE completely removed. |
17 | - Removing TEST_LIBS constant (never seen in a stable MM anyway) |
18 | - Added $default argument to prefixify() for safer prefixification. |
19 | |
20 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
21 | - $mm->{PERM_*} were not being set |
22 | - fixin() redundantly chmod'ing scripts. Let the Makefile do that. |
23 | - The above means MM_Unix will now compile cleanly under strict |
24 | * init_dirscan's search for Makefile.PL's will no longer look |
25 | inside a distdir. |
26 | * Fixed running tests when there are t/'s in subdirs. |
27 | - MM_DOS inheriting from MM_Unix instead of MM_Win32. DJGPP |
28 | appears to be unix-like (bleadperl@15650) |
29 | - Escaping constants with # in them so they're not confused as |
30 | make comments (bleadperl) |
31 | * ExtUtils::MM_Win95 didn't return a true value |
32 | - Fixing disttest when perl is a relative path. |
33 | * Fixed disttest & tests in subdirs on Win95 |
34 | - Fixed recursive Makefile.PL scan on VMS so it skips the distdir |
35 | - Fixed a bug when an alternative MAKEFILE is specified and you're |
36 | using something other than a Makefile.PL (RT 444) |
37 | - Quieting uninit warning when there are no tests. |
38 | |
39 | [[ Doc Fixes ]] |
40 | - Documented INSTALLMAN*DIR == 'none' feature. |
41 | |
42 | [[ Test Fixes ]] |
43 | - Paul Green's which_perl patch to build a proper Perl on systems |
44 | that use command extensions. |
45 | - basic.t's Makefile.PL PREFIX call wasn't properly quoted for VMS |
46 | (Craig Berry) |
47 | - little initialization glitch in MM_Win32.t |
48 | |
49 | [[ Internals ]] |
50 | - INST_* constants moved to init_INST |
51 | - INSTALL* constants moved to inst_INSTALL |
52 | * Internal warning supression removed. |
53 | - Temporarily turning off SelfLoader in MM_Unix so warnings |
54 | have the right line numbers. |

64 | - adjusting for NFS time drift |
75e2e551 |
65 | - basic.t was finding the wrong perl in the core |

74 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
75 | - Removed duplicate NAME macro definition |
76 | - Fixed makemakerdflt target for VMS |
77 | * bleadperl@11460 introduced a bug with recursive Makefile.PL's not |
78 | having '.' in @INC. PDL should build now. |
79 | * MANIFEST.SKIP only working on file names, not full relative paths. |
80 | Only since 5.51_01 (RT 413) |
81 | * make test TEST_VERBOSE=1 was busted by 5.50_01 (RT 423) |
82 | * Error messages from dying Makefile.PL's and hint files were |
83 | accidentally supressed in 5.48_04. Fixed. |
84 | * Makefile.PL's are supposed to be run in package main. 5.48_04 |
85 | broke this. Fixed. |
86 | * Fixing installing on VMS. |

89 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
90 | * ActivePerl 5.6.1/build 631 now 100% |
91 | - Fixed some SelfLoader warnings |
92 | * ExtUtils::MM_Win32 not subclassed off of ExtUtils::MM_Any properly |
93 | - Bug in local $ENV{FOO} was causing failures in MM_Win32 tests. |
94 | Compensating for the bug. |
95 | - $Config{prefixexp} is sometimes bad on ActivePerl, compensating |
96 | - Accidentally left htmlifypods tests in MM_Win32 tests |
97 | |
98 | [[ Doc Changes ]] |
99 | - Expanding Known Good list |
100 | - Adding Known Programs to README |
101 | |
102 | 5.51_01 Mon Mar 18 01:37:02 EST 2002 |
103 | [[ API Changes ]] |
104 | - Removing xsubpp and typemap from the distribution. These are not |
105 | Perl version independent files and should not be upgraded. |
106 | - Removing ExtUtils::Embed. Version specific module and should |
107 | not be updated. |
108 | - Removing ExtUtils::Constant. Not directly tied to MakeMaker. |
109 | Will be distributed seperately by Nick Clark. |
110 | |
111 | [[ New Features ]] |
112 | * realclean now deletes 'dist' directory. |
113 | |
114 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
115 | * Fixing ExtUtils::Installed for VMS |
116 | * Fixed it so MakeMaker can build itself without needing an eariler |
117 | version installed |
118 | * Fixed ExtUtils::Installed so packlists work on VMS |
119 | * ExtUtils::MM_VMS test had a stupid typo that prevented most |
120 | of the tests from running. |
121 | - Fixing VMS so 'mmk' is always 'mmk all' (bleadperl 15218) |
122 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->catfile was calling catdir |
123 | - Added Ken William's "speed up ExtUtils::Manifest" patch. |
124 | - Added Nick Clark's return value of manifest routines patch |
125 | (bleadperl@14978) |
126 | - Merging in bleadperl changes (14438, 14453, 14611, 14612, 14622, |
127 | 14655, 14677, 14688, 14902, 15023, 15187, 15367) |
128 | - bleadperl change 15325 (VMS 'mmk all' hack) rejected. |
129 | - ExtUtils::MM_Any->test_via_harness() now using -MExtUtils::testlib |
130 | instead of -I's. This keeps the command line shorter on VMS, but |
131 | it means TEST_LIB doesn't work anymore. May prove problematic. |
132 | - PERLRUN now uses FULLPERL instead of PERL. This avoids |
133 | accidental use of miniperl. May cause problems in the core. |
134 | - Fixed test_via_harness() on VMS so it uses PERLRUN. |
135 | - ExtUtils::Manifest wrongly handling MANIFEST on VMS. |
136 | - ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip broken due to misuse of /o on a regex. |

138 | 5.50_01 Mon Mar 4 23:44:48 EST 2002 |
139 | [[ API Changes ]] |
140 | htmlifypods and all HTML targets have been removed. It didn't |
141 | work properly. A target for HTMLifying of docs will be |
142 | added sometime in the future (read: send a patch). |
143 | - Deprecated ROOTEXT variable removed (its been deprecated for |
144 | more than five years). |
145 | - Removed ExtUtils::Miniperl from the CPAN distribution. Can't |
146 | see how its useful outside the core. |
147 | |
148 | [[ New Features ]] |
149 | * Emacs backup files (ie. *~) are no longer copied into blib |
150 | (this means you won't get Foo.pm~ accidentally installed anymore). |
151 | - prefixify() now returns if the prefixification worked or not. |
152 | - added the Perl patchlevel info to the description embedded in DLLs |
153 | (Ilya Zakharevich perl change 14810) |
154 | |
155 | [[ Bug Fixes ]] |
156 | * 5.49_01 broke anything that depended on the MM class to be loaded |
157 | with ExtUtils::MakeMaker, like CPAN. Temporarily fixed. |
158 | * Many places wrongfully assume MM methods can be called as class |
159 | methods! Inside and outside of MakeMaker. |
160 | * DOS now acts like Win32 instead of Unix. This should be less wrong. |
161 | - Netware tweak from Ananth Kesari (perl change 14780) |
162 | |
163 | [[ Doc Changes ]] |
164 | * made the docs about the behavior of PREFIX a bit more vague |
165 | reflecting its odd behavior. |
166 | - Replaced references to %Config with things people are more likely |
167 | to understand in PREFIX & LIB docs. |
168 | - Put PREFIX before LIB in the docs. |
169 | |
170 | [[ Internal Refactorings ]] |
171 | - File::Spec wrappers consolidated in MM_Any |
172 | - test_via_harness/script consolidated in MM_Any |
173 | * Added ExtUtils::Command::MM to replace large -e "one-liners" |
174 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_UWIN, took UWIN specific code out of MM_Unix. |
175 | * Added ExtUtils::MM_DOS, took some DOS specific code out of MM_Unix |
176 | - Added a dist() override to MM_OS2. |
177 | - Took the OS/2 specific code out of MM_Unix's dist() |
178 | - Starting to quote as many command line switches as possible |
179 | to make VMS have to override less of MM_Unix. |
180 | |
181 | 5.49_01 Mon Feb 4 00:42:40 EST 2002 |
182 | - Default TEST_LIBS now contains absolute paths, so tests can |
183 | chdir without breaking @INC. |
184 | - Some bug fixes in MM_Win32 were missing in MM_NW5. |
185 | - LLIBPERL was not being set. |
186 | - Gisle Aas fixed a warning in prompt when the user hits ctrl-D |
187 | or pipes STDIN to /dev/null. |
188 | - VMS's test is now a proper ->can check. |
189 | - Stray newline in Command.t causing havoc (bleadperl 14441) |
190 | |
191 | * Lots of internal changes. Everything from here on is an internal |
192 | change. |
193 | - Broke ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid out into its own .pm. Temporary. |
194 | - Broke MM and MY out into their own .pm's. Possibly temporary. |
195 | - Broke ExtUtils::MM_Win95 out of ExtUtils::MM_Win32. MM_Win95 |
196 | is now an MM_Win32 subclass. |
197 | - Removed wrapper methods from ExtUtils::Liblist that were |
198 | defering File::Spec loading. Almost everything uses File::Spec |
199 | - Changed most of the 'our's to 'use vars' in prep for 5.005_03 |
200 | backporting |
201 | - Changed ExtUtils::MakeMaker->import(...) cargo-cultery in MM_* |
202 | modules to proper "use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(...)" |
203 | - All non-Unix MM_* modules now directly inherit from MM_Unix. |
204 | They did this before, but in a round-about way. |
205 | - MM_* modules no longer directly muck with @MM::ISA. Instead |
206 | @MM::ISA does that itself. |
207 | - Removed unnecessary require of Exporter in many MM_* modules. |
208 | - MM_Cygwin was using an MM_Unix function directly without have |
209 | explicitly required MM_Unix. |
210 | - Most of MM_NW5 was redundant with MM_Win32. So MM_NW5 is now |
211 | a subclass of Win32 and the reduendant code has been deleted. |
212 | - Replaced lots of calls to File::Spec->updir, curdir and rootdir |
213 | with a global in MM_Unix. Should make things a bit faster. |
214 | - Untabified ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I hate tabs. |
215 | - "Which MM subclass should I use" logic moved from EU::MakeMaker |
216 | to EU::MM. |
217 | - Deprecated EU::MakeMaker::Version_check deleted. |
218 | |
219 | 5.48_04 Mon Jan 21 19:28:38 EST 2002 |
220 | - No longer requiring Test::More |
221 | - Now tested to work with a clean 5.6.1 |
e0678a30 |
222 | - Stripped out $Revision: 1.48 $ based $VERSIONs. |
f6d6199c |
223 | - Rolled in patches from p5p, vmsperl & VOS (14325, 14338, 14360, 14364) |
224 | * hint files now run in a safer context. Only $self is available. |
225 | - ExtUtils::testlib now provides absolute paths into @INC. |
226 | No longer obsolete |
227 | - Little test fixes |
228 | |

229 | 5.48_03 Thu Jan 17 23:44:38 EST 2002 |
230 | * moved bin/inst to bin/instmodsh |
231 | * Some Win32 backporting fixes. The -x switch doesn't seem to |
232 | work on Win32/5.6.1. |
233 | * Bug on Win32. MAKEMAKER variable not set properly. |
234 | * _02 broke hints files. Now fixed. |
235 | - Minor prereq error formatting glitch |
236 | - ExtUtils::testlib no longer a thin wrapper around blib, now a |
237 | thin wrapper around lib like it was. blib is noisy on 5.6.1. |
238 | - Nick and chromatic found and fixed some warnings in the tests |
239 | |
240 | 5.48_02 Wed Jan 16 19:11:26 EST 2002 |
241 | - Fixed some Win32 warnings. Needs more work. |

243 | 5.48_01 Wed Jan 16 15:10:28 EST 2002 |
39234879 |
244 | * Adapted from bleadperl@14303 |
245 | * Backported to 5.6.1 |
246 | - inst and xsubpp moved out of lib/ and into bin/ |
247 | - ExtUtils::testlib obsoleted. Now a thin wrapper around blib.pm |
248 | ***--> Non-Unix platforms not tested at all! Please test and report |
249 | back. Tests probably only need minor fixes. |
