1 Revision history for local::lib
3 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
8 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
10 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
12 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
13 with C<--self-contained>.
17 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
19 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
23 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
24 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
27 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
29 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
33 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
34 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
35 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
36 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
37 wouldn't work without a directory.
40 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
41 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
42 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
46 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
47 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
49 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
52 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
53 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
54 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
55 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
56 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
57 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
58 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
59 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
62 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
63 blessed entries. (grink)
64 - Include test in xt/ for the above
66 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
67 archlibexp when self contained.
68 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
69 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
70 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
71 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
72 respects it. (confound)
75 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
76 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
77 programmatically (confound).
79 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
82 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
83 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
85 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
86 bootstrapping (confound).
89 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
90 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
92 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
96 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
97 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
100 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
101 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
104 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
105 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
106 in local::lib::import().
109 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
110 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
113 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
114 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
117 - refactored shell command generation
118 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
120 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
