1 Revision history for local::lib
5 - Splitted up method guess_shelltype from parts of print_environment_vars_for
6 - Updated documentation about change of use with .modulebuildrc
10 - Finally move to PERL_MB_OPT rather than using .modulebuildrc.
14 - Fixing stuff so that search.cpan.org displays right
15 - Documented one method in all languages
19 - Added portuguese translation
20 - Several minor fixes in the documentation
21 - Changed methods look in documentation
25 - Added support informations (also for german)
26 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
34 - Added german translation right
38 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
42 - Added german translation
43 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
44 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
45 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
49 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
50 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
52 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
60 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
61 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
62 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
63 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
65 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
66 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
68 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
73 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
75 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
77 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
78 with C<--self-contained>.
82 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
84 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
88 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
89 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
92 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
94 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
98 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
99 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
100 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
101 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
102 wouldn't work without a directory.
105 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
106 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
107 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
111 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
112 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
114 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
117 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
118 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
119 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
120 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
121 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
122 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
123 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
124 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
127 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
128 blessed entries. (grink)
129 - Include test in xt/ for the above
131 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
132 archlibexp when self contained.
133 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
134 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
135 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
136 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
137 respects it. (confound)
140 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
141 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
142 programmatically (confound).
144 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
147 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
148 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
150 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
151 bootstrapping (confound).
154 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
155 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
157 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
161 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
162 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
165 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
166 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
169 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
170 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
171 in local::lib::import().
174 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
175 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
178 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
179 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
182 - refactored shell command generation
183 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
185 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
