1 Revision history for local::lib
4 - now handling using -Mlocal::lib in a taintperl environment, by
5 ensuring that all libs in PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT are properly added to
6 @INC (RT#76661, Karen Etheridge)
9 - skip CPAN workaround if running via cpanminus (miyagawa, RT#85731)
12 - Fix a split on undefined value warning (David Golden -- see
13 https://github.com/gugod/App-perlbrew/issues/305)
16 - Remove Carp::Always dep
19 - Fix putting arch path in PERL5LIB
20 - Refactor Win32 path handling out of ensure_dir_structure_for()
21 - Fix activate_paths when PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT starts with :
22 - Fix ~/perl5/bin missing in $PATH
25 - Back to 1.008004 with Carp fix since subsequent releases were botched
26 - Avoid issue where PERL5LIB Carp is older than local::lib one
30 - Fix stackable tests on win32 by canonicalizing the path ahead of time
34 - Fix tests with stacking l::ls.
38 - Add local::lib stacking support.
39 - Add activation/deactivation support.
43 - Bootstrap Module::Build just like ExtUtils::MakeMaker
47 - Remove redundant prereqs now that Module::Build 0.36 is required
48 - Makefile.PL avoids CPAN client configuration when not required
49 - print_environment_vars_for() refactored with separate function
50 environment_vars_string_for()
51 - PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT environment is added to disambiguate when
52 PERL_MM_OPT, etc. was set by local::lib or other means
55 - Chase the Module::Build version which supports PERL_MB_OPT. Thanks to
56 miyagawa for pointing this out.
60 - Split up method guess_shelltype from parts of print_environment_vars_for
61 - Updated documentation about change of use with .modulebuildrc
65 - Finally move to PERL_MB_OPT rather than using .modulebuildrc.
69 - Fixing stuff so that search.cpan.org displays right
70 - Documented one method in all languages
74 - Added portuguese translation
75 - Several minor fixes in the documentation
76 - Changed methods look in documentation
80 - Added support informations (also for german)
81 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
89 - Added german translation right
93 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
97 - Added german translation
98 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
99 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
100 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
104 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
105 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
106 ever worked usefully.
107 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
115 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
116 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
117 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
118 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
120 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
121 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
123 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
128 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
130 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
132 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
133 with C<--self-contained>.
137 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
139 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
143 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
144 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
147 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
149 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
153 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
154 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
155 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
156 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
157 wouldn't work without a directory.
160 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
161 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
162 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
166 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
167 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
169 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
172 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
173 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
174 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
175 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
176 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
177 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
178 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
179 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
182 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
183 blessed entries. (grink)
184 - Include test in xt/ for the above
186 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
187 archlibexp when self contained.
188 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
189 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
190 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
191 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
192 respects it. (confound)
195 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
196 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
197 programmatically (confound).
199 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
202 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
203 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
205 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
206 bootstrapping (confound).
209 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
210 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
212 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
216 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
217 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
220 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
221 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
224 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
225 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
226 in local::lib::import().
229 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
230 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
233 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
234 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
237 - refactored shell command generation
238 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
240 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
