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