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