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