1 Revision history for local::lib
4 - Remove prototype on private function
8 - Avoid issue where PERL5LIB Carp is older than local::lib one
12 - Fix stackable tests on win32 by canonicalizing the path ahead of time
16 - Fix tests with stacking l::ls.
20 - Add local::lib stacking support.
21 - Add activation/deactivation support.
25 - Bootstrap Module::Build just like ExtUtils::MakeMaker
29 - Remove redundant prereqs now that Module::Build 0.36 is required
30 - Makefile.PL avoids CPAN client configuration when not required
31 - print_environment_vars_for() refactored with separate function
32 environment_vars_string_for()
33 - PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT environment is added to disambiguate when
34 PERL_MM_OPT, etc. was set by local::lib or other means
37 - Chase the Module::Build version which supports PERL_MB_OPT. Thanks to
38 miyagawa for pointing this out.
42 - Split up method guess_shelltype from parts of print_environment_vars_for
43 - Updated documentation about change of use with .modulebuildrc
47 - Finally move to PERL_MB_OPT rather than using .modulebuildrc.
51 - Fixing stuff so that search.cpan.org displays right
52 - Documented one method in all languages
56 - Added portuguese translation
57 - Several minor fixes in the documentation
58 - Changed methods look in documentation
62 - Added support informations (also for german)
63 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
71 - Added german translation right
75 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
79 - Added german translation
80 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
81 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
82 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
86 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
87 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
89 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
97 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
98 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
99 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
100 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
102 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
103 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
105 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
110 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
112 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
114 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
115 with C<--self-contained>.
119 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
121 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
125 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
126 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
129 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
131 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
135 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
136 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
137 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
138 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
139 wouldn't work without a directory.
142 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
143 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
144 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
148 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
149 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
151 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
154 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
155 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
156 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
157 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
158 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
159 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
160 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
161 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
164 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
165 blessed entries. (grink)
166 - Include test in xt/ for the above
168 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
169 archlibexp when self contained.
170 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
171 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
172 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
173 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
174 respects it. (confound)
177 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
178 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
179 programmatically (confound).
181 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
184 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
185 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
187 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
188 bootstrapping (confound).
191 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
192 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
194 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
198 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
199 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
202 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
203 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
206 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
207 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
208 in local::lib::import().
211 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
212 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
215 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
216 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
219 - refactored shell command generation
220 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
222 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
