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