1 Revision history for local::lib
4 - Fix stackable tests on win32 by canonicalizing the path ahead of time
8 - Fix tests with stacking l::ls.
12 - Add local::lib stacking support.
13 - Add activation/deactivation support.
17 - Bootstrap Module::Build just like ExtUtils::MakeMaker
21 - Remove redundant prereqs now that Module::Build 0.36 is required
22 - Makefile.PL avoids CPAN client configuration when not required
23 - print_environment_vars_for() refactored with separate function
24 environment_vars_string_for()
25 - PERL_LOCAL_LIB_ROOT environment is added to disambiguate when
26 PERL_MM_OPT, etc. was set by local::lib or other means
29 - Chase the Module::Build version which supports PERL_MB_OPT. Thanks to
30 miyagawa for pointing this out.
34 - Split up method guess_shelltype from parts of print_environment_vars_for
35 - Updated documentation about change of use with .modulebuildrc
39 - Finally move to PERL_MB_OPT rather than using .modulebuildrc.
43 - Fixing stuff so that search.cpan.org displays right
44 - Documented one method in all languages
48 - Added portuguese translation
49 - Several minor fixes in the documentation
50 - Changed methods look in documentation
54 - Added support informations (also for german)
55 - Fixed newline in german translation from DOS2UNIX
63 - Added german translation right
67 - Hotfix for a search.cpan.org "Bug"
71 - Added german translation
72 - Enhanced some parts of english documentation
73 - doc patch for win32 from run4flat
74 - reverse the perl/arch paths in PERL5LIB
78 - Create lib::core::only that provides the "set @INC to core dirs
79 only" functionality that was the only part of --self-contained that
81 - Delete broken --self-contained flag from core
89 - More robust handling of running new toolchains on older perls. This
90 should sort out issues users have with bootstrapping on e.g. Solaris
91 and other traditional Unices. In addition, try to find a GNU tar
92 capable of dealing with @LongLink so bootstrapping doesn't fail.
94 - Warnings for missing PATH/PERL5LIB (as when not running interactively)
95 silenced by a patch from Marco Emilio Poleggi.
97 - Start of better docs for C<--self-contained> thanks to
102 - Fix warning if your $ENV{PERL5LIB} is undef
104 - Doc improvement from kgish/#perl-help@irc.perl.org
106 - t0m and chrisa on #local-lib@irc.perl.org pointed out a PERL5LIB ordering issue
107 with C<--self-contained>.
111 - Clarify re-reading the shell config file after writing to it.
113 - Clarify copyright and licensing for packaging by vendors.
117 - Ensure that $ENV{PERL5LIB} and @INC are always de-duped, stopping
118 them from growing if local::lib is invoked multiple times for the
121 - Doc improvements by kurisuto@irc.perl.org/#catalyst.
123 - Cleaned up indentation of code lines in the POD. Everything should be
127 - Fix parsing of --self-contained and local lib directory. It's now
128 possible to specify flags and the directory in any order. Also made
129 adding future flags easier in the future. Thanks to
130 frew@irc.perl.org/#catalyst for pointing out that --self-contained
131 wouldn't work without a directory.
134 - Add the --no-manpages option to bootstraping to tell EUMM / MB to not
135 generate manpages from POD. Thanks to RKITOVER for providing the
136 necessary values for CPAN.pm's configuration.
140 - Add dependency on Extutils::Install 1.43 and install in --bootstrap
141 otherwise we fail to build with latest MakeMaker on OpenSolaris (t0m)
143 - Fix Win32 / Cygwin detection (emazep).
146 - Stop Makefile.PL exploding if your CPAN is too old to have
147 CPAN::HandleConfig. Needed when installing local::lib via CPAN
148 using an old CPAN version (t0m)
149 - Fix warning from Makefile.PL about ExtUtils::MakeMaker::prompt (t0m)
150 - Set PERL5LIB back to calculated @INC with --self-contained, to stop
151 invoking other perl scripts from losing the local::lib if they
152 mangle @INC from $ENV{PERL5LIB}, and fix install of 'difficult'
153 modules with such as Test::Deep (t0m)
156 - Fixed up INC untaint procedure to skip/ignore CODE, ARRAY,
157 blessed entries. (grink)
158 - Include test in xt/ for the above
160 - Put PERL5LIB first, so it'll be favored over privlibexp and
161 archlibexp when self contained.
162 - Automatically untaint @INC (t0m)
163 - Prevent @INC from growing when you have multiple scripts using
164 --self-contained called from inside one another. (grink by way of t0m)
165 - eg/scripted_install.pl now no longer requires TARGET, but still
166 respects it. (confound)
169 - Clean up CPAN.pm's environment variable the same way we do for
170 CPANPLUS. Add an example program showing local::lib employed
171 programmatically (confound).
173 - Add the beginnings of a troubleshooting section (pattern).
176 - Don't allow dangerous settings for CPAN.pm that affect where CPAN
177 installs stuff, as this conflicts with what we're trying to do.
179 - Make sure that our Makefile is written to the correct directory when
180 bootstrapping (confound).
183 - Additional documentation and examples concerning having multiple
184 local::lib enviornments (amiri)
186 - Some install tests courtesy of Hans Dieter Pearcey <hdp@cpan.org>.
190 - Expose the internals per RT #36846.
191 - Fix the MANIFEST up a bit.
194 - Add a doc patch from Torsten Raudssus <torsten@raudssus.de> that
195 clarifies how to specify a directory other than ~/perl5.
198 - Properly bail if given fancy dashes obtained by copy-pasting from a
199 UTF8-happy POD formatter. This will bail in both the Makefile.PL and
200 in local::lib::import().
203 - Add the --self-contained flag from Mark Stosberg, which also contains
204 a doc patch warning about the dangers of UNINST=1. Thanks, Mark!
207 - make CPAN config reinit non-prompting but still robust
208 - make bootstrap auto-init CPAN config and set USE_DEFAULT for deps
211 - refactored shell command generation
212 - implemented C shell command generation based on this (checks $SHELL}
214 - modified Makefile.PL to install an up-to-date CPAN.pm if needed
