1 Revision history for local::lib
5 - Added support informations (also for german)
6 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
14 - Added german translation right
18 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
22 - Added german translation
23 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
24 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
25 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
29 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
30 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
32 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
40 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
41 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
42 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
43 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
45 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
46 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
48 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
53 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
55 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
57 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
58 with C<--self-contained>.
62 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
64 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
68 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
69 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
72 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
74 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
78 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
79 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
80 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
81 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
82 wouldn't work without a directory.
85 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
86 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
87 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
91 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
92 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
94 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
97 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
98 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
99 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
100 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
101 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
102 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
103 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
104 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
107 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
108 blessed entries. (grink)
109 - Include test in xt/ for the above
111 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
112 archlibexp when self contained.
113 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
114 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
115 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
116 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
117 respects it. (confound)
120 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
121 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
122 programmatically (confound).
124 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
127 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
128 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
130 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
131 bootstrapping (confound).
134 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
135 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
137 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
141 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
142 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
145 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
146 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
149 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
150 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
151 in local::lib::import().
154 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
155 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
158 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
159 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
162 - refactored shell command generation
163 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
165 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
