2 | * PL_FILES behavior tweak again to restore old behavior. Sometimes its | |
3 | supposed to run before pm_to_blib, sometimes after. | |
4 | - Some tests shipped with 'no_plan' which will break on older | |
5 | Test::Harness. | |

8 | * The behavior of PL_FILES is restored to its pre-6.26 behavior as several | |
9 | CPAN modules depend on this. PL programs run via PL_FILES have | |
10 | INST_LIB and INST_ARCH in their @INC and so can load any just built | |
11 | modules. | |
12 | - Now honors PERL_CORE environment variable. | |
13 | - Testing to ensure FIRST_MAKEFILE is honored. | |

16 | - Fix realclean so it cleans up files installed from ext/ in the core | |
17 | - Fix dir_target() so it doesn't warn should any of the INST_* paths | |
18 | be the same (as with the ext/ modules in the core) | |
19 | - Fix MANIFEST.SKIP so it skips not just _darcs/ but everything inside | |
20 | it and any which happen to be in subdirs. | |
21 | - MM_AIX forgot to import neatvalue() from E::MakeMaker. | |
22 | (bleadperl@24185) | |
23 | - Fixed a minor C<<>> POD nit (Scott Lanning) | |

25 | 6.27 Mon Apr 4 16:36:14 PDT 2005 |
26 | * Added _darcs to the list of revision control administrative | |
27 | directories skipped both in libscan and in MANIFEST.SKIP. | |
28 | ||
29 | 6.26_01 Mon Mar 28 21:34:39 PST 2005 | |
30 | * PL_FILES was broken in the last release. The .PL files were not being | |
31 | passed the file they were to generate. | |
32 | * How PL_FILES runs the programs and what it does with the value is | |
33 | now documented. | |
34 | * The default behavior of PL_FILES is now documented. | |

38 | 6.25_12 Fri Mar 18 16:15:35 PST 2005 | |
39 | - Use the generic dmake search.cpan.org URL in the README so the newest | |
40 | version is found. | |
41 | - Fixed pm_to_blib trouble on VMS introduced in 6.25_10. | |
42 | ||
43 | 6.25_11 Tue Mar 15 02:00:20 PST 2005 | |
44 | - Fixed minor parent class dependency loop in ExtUtils::MM_Any. | |
45 | - Fixed a circular dependency on processed PL files introduced as part | |
46 | of RT 6460 in 6.25_02. | |
47 | ||
48 | 6.25_10 Sun Mar 13 16:14:04 PST 2005 | |
49 | - pm_to_blib.ts is gone, back to pm_to_blib (except on VMS). I | |
50 | couldn't make it work and still retain backwards compatibility. | |
51 | This fixes the recompilation problems that plagued _09 and various | |
52 | previous alpha releases. | |
53 | ||
54 | 6.25_09 Sat Mar 12 10:10:34 PST 2005 | |
55 | - Stubbing out PASTHRU on VMS. $(MMSQUALIFIERS) should do the equivalent | |
56 | and better. | |
57 | - Added test to check for the existence of a compiler so XS tests are | |
58 | now possible. | |
59 | ||
60 | 6.25_08 Tue Feb 8 09:04:36 EST 2005 | |
61 | - Fixing xsubpp on VMS. Had a foo/bar path in it. | |
62 | - Turning XSUBPP into a runable command by the addition of PERLRUN | |
63 | made it unusable as a dependency. Added XSUBPPRUN for that and left | |
64 | XSUBPP alone. | |
65 | - Removed DESTDIR from PASTHRU as install is not recursive and it can | |
66 | make commands too long on VMS. | |
67 | - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. Using | |
68 | .exists files everywhere. | |
69 | - Restore missing *.Opt clean on VMS. | |
70 | - Fix .exists files accidentally getting caught in static builds. | |
71 | - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. | |
72 | - Add Interix support (bleadperl@33892) | |
73 | - distsign target changed to distsignature to avoid clash with | |
74 | Module::Install | |
75 | ||
76 | 6.25_07 Fri Dec 31 03:47:20 EST 2004 | |
77 | - perllocal on VMS was inserting executables twice. | |
78 | - No longer using $(IGNORE) macro. Turns out MMS/K was not honoring | |
79 | it. Using "-$(NOECHO) command" which seems to make everybody happy. | |
80 | - Executables with no extension weren't getting installed on VMS due to | |
81 | a bug in rename(). Broken sometime in this series of alphas. | |
82 | ||
83 | 6.25_06 Sun Dec 26 17:21:37 EST 2004 | |
84 | - Forgot to define BOOTDEP macro. | |
85 | - .exists files are back. Directories cannot be used directly as | |
86 | targets as their mod time changes too frequently. | |
87 | * Added INSTALLBASE as an alternative to PREFIX but haven't documented | |
88 | it yet. I'll do that next release. | |
89 | ||
90 | 6.25_05 Wed Dec 22 07:59:02 EST 2004 | |
91 | - One of the 6.25 alphas broke BSD make. It doesn't like "- @ command". | |
92 | Fixed by adding an $(IGNORE) macro. | |
93 | - 6.25 alphas caused a Makefile to be added to the dist. Fixed. | |
94 | - The new cd() code needed to be dependent on dmake or nmake for | |
95 | Windows. Not Win9x vs WinNT/XP. | |
96 | ||
97 | 6.25_04 Tue Dec 21 00:53:06 EST 2004 | |
98 | - 6.25_03 was always rebuilding XS modules. | |
99 | ||
100 | 6.25_03 Mon Dec 20 23:04:22 EST 2004 | |
101 | - dir_target() is back. Now each directory to be created has its own | |
102 | target like before, but no more .exists or blibdirs.ts files. This | |
103 | ensures that each blib directory is created as necessary and fixes | |
104 | things like SVN's perl bindings. | |
105 | ||
106 | 6.25_02 Mon Dec 20 03:31:49 EST 2004 | |
107 | - Set PM_FILTER as late as possible so it can see all the earlier | |
108 | macro definitions. Necessary for challenged make implementations | |
109 | like nmake. Should fix Mail::SpamAssassin installs on Win32. | |
110 | [rt.cpan.org 4545] | |
111 | - clean and realclean are now more careful about accidentally deleting | |
112 | directories instead of files. [rt.cpan.org 6851] | |
113 | - small fix for parallel builds, make sure pm_to_blib has run before | |
114 | we try to use stuff in blib. [rt.cpan.org 6460] | |
115 | - MAKEFILE=foo appears to have been broken for recursive builds and | |
116 | several other things. I think this was broken by 6.18. | |
117 | ||
118 | 6.25_01 Fri Dec 17 21:29:04 EST 2004 | |
119 | * *.bak added to the default MANIFEST.SKIP. | |
120 | * META.yml will no longer be generated in the build directory. It will | |
121 | only appear in the distdir. This should make it easier on developers, | |
122 | they don't have to worry about checking the file in all the time. | |
123 | * Similarly, the SIGNATURE file will not be updated in the build | |
124 | directory. It will only be generated in the distdir. | |
125 | - A bunch of redundant Win9x and VMS code removed. | |
126 | - 'make test' on Windows no longer pre-expands its list of test files. | |
127 | This caused problems on large distributions like bioperl. Thanks to | |
128 | Tim Bunce for suggesting the obvious fix. | |
129 | ||

130 | 6.25 Wed Dec 15 06:59:46 EST 2004 |
131 | - Build.PL was being considered like Module_pm.PL. Build.PL is now | |
132 | ignored. [radek@karnet.pl] [rt.cpan.org 8809] | |
133 | - Devel::Cover cover_db/ directory now ignored by MANIFEST.SKIP | |
134 | ||
135 | 6.24_01 Thu Dec 9 00:44:48 EST 2004 | |
136 | - Docs encouraged possibly insecure use of /tmp [CAN-2004-0976 via Debian] | |
137 | - Remove empty rpath from .so files [bleadperl@23183] | |
138 | - At long last the core man page title has its apostrophe. | |
139 | - BeOS tests fixed [Ingo Weinhold] [perlbug #32717] | |
140 | - Putting a pm_to_blib target back (alias of pm_to_blib.ts) in case | |
141 | anyone was depending on it being there (mod_perl was). | |
142 | ||
143 | 6.24 Tue Nov 30 15:35:13 EST 2004 | |
144 | - dir_target() was accidentally named dir_targets() causing problems | |
145 | installing some Tk modules. | |
146 | ||
147 | 6.23 Fri Nov 26 16:01:50 EST 2004 | |
148 | - MM_MacOS lost its $VERSION causing some CPAN indexing problems. Enough | |
149 | people noticed this to warrant a quick release. | |
150 | ||
151 | 6.22 Tue Nov 23 22:22:22 EST 2004 | |
152 | - Minor glitch in Command.t test on Win32 [thanks Steve Hay] | |
153 | * Fixed MANIFEST.SKIP so it avoids all the new *.ts files. | |
154 | - Don't spuriously define pasthru arguments | |
155 | ||
156 | 6.21_03 Sat Apr 3 2004 | |
157 | - pm_to_blib and blibdirs stamp files now pm_to_blib.ts and blibdirs.ts | |
158 | everywhere because some filesystems insist you have a dot in the | |
159 | filename. This eliminates a bunch of special case code. | |
03c94fc2 RGS |
160 | - Minor potential glitch in the version check logic. |
161 | - Making Makefile rebuild logic more resistant to inconsequential | |
162 | errors when cleaning up things that are going to be rebuilt anyway. | |
163 | - Adding SCCS to the list of directories in MANIFEST.SKIP. | |
5dca256e RGS |
164 | * Fixing blibdirs so it doesn't rebuild every make run. |
165 | * Using a more conservative MAX_EXEC_LEN for Win98 to allow building | |
03c94fc2 | 166 | large modules like Encode. [Greg Matheson] |
5dca256e | 167 | * test target mangled by dmake. Doesn't seem to like q{}. |
03c94fc2 RGS |
168 | [Greg Matheson] |
169 | - instmodsh now using Archive::Tar to create archives if available. | |
170 | [Slaven Rezic] | |
171 | - instmodsh now using more portable tar flags to create archives. | |
172 | [Slaven Rezic] | |
173 | - Added FAQ entry for "How do I use a module without installing it?" | |
174 | and "How do I keep from installing man pages?" [Joe Cromie] | |
5dca256e RGS |
175 | - Fixed finding the default MANIFEST.SKIP if its on a different volume |
176 | [Ilya Zakharevich] | |
177 | - When building Perl, we had a chance of picking up the old installed | |
178 | xsubpp from @INC [Andreas Koenig] | |
179 | - makeaperl() now a bit more intellegent about ignoring perl libraries | |
180 | not called libperl. [Ilya Zakharevich bleadperl@22032] | |
181 | * MacOS Classic (MacPerl) is no longer supported. Please use | |
182 | Module::Build instead. | |
183 | * Restored pm_to_blib.ts so pm_to_blib generation will be quiessent on | |
184 | VMS. [rt 4675] | |
185 | - For simplicity, dir_target() is now a no-op. Should not effect any | |
186 | existing uses. | |
187 | - Converted utility commands from using $(PERLRUN) to $(ABSPERLRUN). | |
188 | This allows distclean to work with SDBM_File. [rt 5616] | |
189 | - realclean was using "rm -f" instead of "rm -rf" meaning directories | |
190 | wouldn't be properly cleaned. Caused by bleadperl@7952. [rt 5208] | |
191 | - fixpath() could undo wraplist() on VMS [rt 4955] | |
192 | - ensure ExtUtils::Command::rm_f deletes all versions of a file on VMS | |
193 | [rt 4687] | |
194 | - hint.t generating improperly named hint files on OS's where $^O | |
195 | contains a '.'. They should be converted to underscores. Test | |
196 | mistake, not a bug. [rt 5365] | |
197 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Command::chmod() so it will work on directories on | |
198 | VMS. [rt 4676] | |
199 | - parse_version.t was using no_plan causing trouble on older T::Hs. | |
200 | [rt 5633] | |
03c94fc2 | 201 | |
af7522e5 | 202 | 6.21 Tue Nov 11 00:12:56 PST 2003 |
03c94fc2 | 203 | - NetBSD was looking in INSTALLARCHLIB/CORE for libperl instead of |
af7522e5 RGS |
204 | PERL_ARCHLIB/CORE. Would cause problems if INSTALLARCHLIB was changed |
205 | (ie. LIB or PREFIX used). [Jochen Eisinger] | |
206 | - Turns out a handful of modules use dir_target(). Restored a version | |
207 | for backwards compatibility. | |
208 | - Moved blibdirs target from top_targets() to its own section. Lots of | |
209 | modules rewrite top_targets() so blibdirs wouldn't be written. | |
210 | ||
dd0810f9 RGS |
211 | 6.20 Thu Nov 6 02:25:58 PST 2003 |
212 | - Fixing dos2unix on Cygwin. In-place editing doesn't work 100% so we | |
213 | take a more conservative approach. | |
214 | - Small postamble.t test temp file cleanup fix for Cygwin and Windows. | |
215 | - Small Command.t test fix for 5.5.3. No real bug [rt 4290] | |
216 | - Small Liblist fix for Cygwin and import libraries [Gerrit P. Haase] | |
217 | - metafile error message slightly mangled. Bare $! mistake confusing | |
218 | nmake [rt 4285 4301] | |
219 | ||
a7d1454b RGS |
220 | 6.19 Mon Nov 3 22:53:56 PST 2003 |
221 | - Removed 00setup_dummy.t and zz_cleanup_dummy.t. Tests now setup and | |
222 | teardown the dummy modules as needed. | |
223 | - Little test glitch on systems without $Config{usevendorprefix} set | |
224 | - INSTALL(SITE|VENDOR)MAN*DIR now fall back to $(INSTALLMAN*DIR) | |
225 | instead of copying its value. This lets "perl Makefile.PL | |
226 | INSTALLMAN1DIR=/some/man/man1" work like expected. | |
227 | ||
228 | 6.18 Mon Nov 3 20:09:51 PST 2003 | |
229 | - parse_version() was blowing over $_ (Ilya Zakharevich) | |
230 | - 5.6.2 has the same Cygwin shared lib name fix as 5.7.0. (Gerrit Haase) | |
231 | * When $Config{install(site|vendor)man*dir} aren't set it will now | |
232 | fall back to $Config{installman*dir}. Similar for | |
233 | $Config{install(site|vendor)bin}. This preserves behavior for older | |
234 | Perls. | |
235 | * Eliminated the dependency on perl.h for pure-perl builds. | |
236 | * Eliminated .exists files. Added blibdirs target using MKPATH instead. | |
237 | - Removed now unused dir_target() method. | |
238 | - Added a little documentation to instmodsh. | |
239 | * Made sure PREFIX always has something in it. Module authors like to use | |
240 | it when extending MakeMaker. Currently using one of | |
241 | PERL/SITE/VENDORPREFIX based on the value of INSTALLDIRS. | |
242 | * Added SIGN to generate module signatures with cpansign (Autrijus Tang) | |
243 | - Slight tweaks to MAKEFILE_OLD and MAKE_APERL_FILE restoring a mistake | |
244 | made around 6.06 to fix static builds on OS/2 | |
245 | - Added ExtUtils::Command::dos2unix() | |
246 | * manicopy() would make the copied files read-only if 'cp' was used. | |
247 | * Fixed prereq check for modules which are also keywords like if.pm and | |
248 | open.pm (Autrijus Tang) | |
249 | - Made ExtUtils::Command mv and cp return whether or not they succeeded. | |
250 | * metafile_addtomanifest now mentions what its doing. | |
251 | * metafile will not die if it can't write to META.yml, just emit a | |
252 | warning. This lets 'make dist' continue with a read-only META.yml | |
253 | - Small fix to identify UWIN on NT (Randy Sims) | |
254 | * metafile will not touch the META.yml if it does not need to be changed | |
255 | (Thanks to Tim Bunce for this idea) | |
256 | * Fixed 'make uninstall' which looks like its been broken since last | |
257 | November and nobody noticed. | |
258 | - Fixing minor bug in VMS prefixification logic when PREFIX was not set | |
259 | by the user. | |
260 | - Fixing potential bug in prefixification for relative directories | |
261 | * Documented UNINST=1 | |

263 | 6.17 Sun Sep 14 20:52:45 PDT 2003 |
264 | - Fixing LD so it can be set properly on Win32. (Orton Yves) | |
265 | * Fixing the init_PERL() "tack $Config{exe_ext} onto $^X" logic so | |
266 | it works on VMS allowing $^X to be found. | |
267 | * Fixing make install UNINST=1 on Windows so it can search PERL5LIB | |
268 | (Orton Yves) | |
269 | - Fixing "could not open MANIFEST" test for OS/2 (and probably others) | |
270 | where a read-only file cannot be deleted. | |
271 | - Hacking around the fact that when built for debugging, VMS creates | |
272 | ndbgperl.exe. | |
273 | - Eliminating the never implemented "help" argument. | |
274 | ||
2c91f887 JH |
275 | 6.16 Mon Aug 18 01:39:51 PDT 2003 |
276 | * Fixing the max exec length for Windows to account for old | |
277 | versions of nmake (the one you can download for free from MS). | |
278 | - Hack to normalize //foo//bar paths in ExtUtils::Installed. | |
279 | [Sreeji K Das] | |
280 | * Adding Module::Build utility files to MANIFEST.SKIP | |
281 | - PREREQ_PRINT is supposed to exit after dumping. (Wolfgang Friebel | |
282 | bleadperl@20530) | |
283 | - maniadd() was trying to open the MANIFEST even if it didn't need to | |
284 | causing unnecessary errors for read-only MANIFESTs (rt.cpan.org 3180) | |
285 | ||
64964e6d JH |
286 | 6.15 Sun Aug 3 16:41:05 PDT 2003 |
287 | - Make FIXIN on Win32 use the new pl2bat rather than an already | |
288 | installed one when building the core (Mattia Barbon) | |
289 | ||
290 | 6.14 Sun Aug 3 16:23:27 PDT 2003 | |
291 | - Adding a reference to the Module::Build META.yml spec in the META.yml | |
292 | itself and the metafile documentation. | |
293 | - Removed Begin/End comments from manifypods that were getting in the | |
294 | way of users adding code to the manifypods target. | |
295 | - Putting a POD2MAN macro back as an alias to POD2MAN_EXE and using | |
296 | it instead of POD2MAN. This allows people to generate their own man | |
297 | installation targets in a backwards compatible way. | |
298 | * Adding reference to the Module::Build META file spec in the docs. | |
299 | ||

301 | - Generated META.yml now has the prereqs in sorted order (Andy Lester) | |
302 | - Arguments to child Makefile.PLs were still having .. prepended. This | |
303 | was exposed by the earlier fix of rt.perl.org 4345. | |
304 | - extralibs.ld (for static builds) wasn't being cleaned up. | |
305 | ||
1b0fc073 JH |
306 | 6.12 Tue Jul 29 22:19:38 PDT 2003 |
307 | - Should any of your prefixes be /, MakeMaker might lose this and | |
308 | prepend your prefix as "prefixyour/directory" rather than | |
309 | "prefix/your/directory" (Ed Moy bleadperl 20283) | |
310 | - Reversing "realclean was duplicating work already done by clean" | |
311 | (CVS 1.124 MM_Unix.pm). Turns out it wasn't a duplication and this | |
312 | was causing INST_* files to be left behind if your INST_LIB wasn't | |
313 | blib/* as in the perl core. realclean now removes the files copied | |
314 | to INST_*. | |
315 | - Eliminating xsubpp_version(). No longer relevant. It was checking | |
316 | for a feature added to xsubpp before 5.003_07 and doing it in a | |
317 | really bizarre way. | |
318 | ||
319 | 6.11 Thu Jul 24 01:24:37 PDT 2003 | |
320 | - Small grammatical doc touch up by Sean Burke | |
321 | - Making basic.t clean up better after itself so it can be run | |
322 | twice without setting up and cleaning up Big-Dummy again. | |
323 | * Noting where to find make in the README | |
324 | * Noting that MakeMaker does not produce a GNU make compatible Makefile | |
325 | on Windows. | |
1b0fc073 JH |
326 | |
327 | 6.10_08 Mon Jul 21 18:17:06 PDT 2003 | |
328 | * $Config{installvendorman*dir} was being ignored and our default | |
329 | always used. [rt.cpan.org #2949] | |
330 | * Setting NORECURS to true was still resulting in a Makefile which | |
331 | tried to recurse into subdirectories which contained a Makefile.PL | |
332 | (it simply wouldn't have run them to generate Makefile's). | |
333 | This appears to be a rather old bug. | |
334 | [rt.cpan.org #2951] | |
335 | * [rt.perl.org #4345] Arguments passed to WriteMakefile() would get | |
336 | stopped upon by $self->{PARENT} in recursive builds in the process | |
337 | of prepending a .. onto it. | |
338 | - Command.t now using its own temp directory when testing | |
339 | expand_wildcards() so no stray files confuse it. | |
340 | * No longer warning about 'postamble' attribute. | |
341 | - Added installvars() to list INSTALL* variables so we don't keep | |
342 | repeating the list all over the code. | |
343 | - Added init_DEST() to create DESTINSTALL* variables for installing | |
344 | with DESTDIR set. | |
345 | * DESTDIR + PREFIX now does not duplicate DESTDIR. [Redhat #91892 | |
346 | and part of rt.cpan.org #2954] | |
347 | * DESTDIR is now not directly prepended to the INSTALL* variables. | |
348 | installation targets now use DESTINSTALL* instead. This prevents | |
349 | the DESTDIR from showing up in places it shouldn't like perllocal.pod. | |
350 | DESTDIR is still appearing in .packlist (bug). [rt.cpan.org #2954] | |
351 | - MM_VMS->prefixify() wasn't honoring the %Config_Override causing | |
352 | some MakeMaker generated config variables to be ignored. | |
353 | - MM_VMS->prefixify() was only VMSifying part of its filepaths causing | |
354 | internal comparisions to get confused and think it had to prefixify | |
355 | when it didn't. | |

357 | 6.10_07 Sat Jul 5 16:12:52 PDT 2003 | |
358 | * Fixing location of perllocal.pod so its always in INSTALLARCHLIB | |
359 | instead of one for each perl, site and vendor. | |
e3aa3ecb MS |
360 | - Sun's make treats escaped newlines oddly. Switching oneliner() back |
361 | to using multiple -e's. | |
362 | * Bug in libscan() meant that any .pm containing RCS or CVS or SCCS | |
363 | in its name (for example, RCS.pm) would be skipped. | |
364 | - Command.t was getting confused in the core because it was reading | |
365 | files from the core t/ directory, not MakeMaker's t/ directry. | |
366 | - MM_OS2 PERL_ARCHIVE_AFTER test wrong for a.out systems (Ilya) | |
1b0fc073 JH |
367 | - Fixing perllocal.pod and XS installation on VMS. An extraneous |
368 | newline was introduced when changing the install macros over to | |
369 | $(ECHO). | |
370 | - Added $(ECHO_N) macro to emulate 'echo -n' | |

372 | 6.10_06 Sat Jun 7 00:55:29 PDT 2003 |
373 | - Whoops, Liblist.t busted on VMS after I turned strict on in | |
374 | ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid. Merely a test bug, not a real bug. | |
375 | - Fixed metafile_addtomanifest failure so the proper error shows. | |
376 | - Fixed metafile_addtomanifest failure diagnostic leaking out during | |
377 | the basic.t test on Windows. | |

380 | * Documenting META.yml, NO_META | |
381 | * Documenting the fact that distdir will auto generate META.yml and | |
382 | alter your manifest. | |
383 | * Adding META.yml autogeneration to the FAQ | |
384 | - Recognizing comments with leading whitespace in MANIFESTs better. | |
385 | - Small ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid problem on VMS (Craig Berry) | |
386 | * Fixed "make install UNINST=1". Appears to have been broken somewhere | |
387 | around 6.06_01. | |
388 | - Documented the fourth argument to ExtUtils::Install::install() | |
389 | - install() will now honor a PERL5LIB change between ExtUtils::Install | |
390 | loading and install() running when uninstalling shadows. | |
391 | - META.yml generation deals gracefully when the MANIFEST is read-only | |
392 | (Slaven rt.cpan.org 2723) | |

397 | - Working around BSD threaading bug in version check. [from bleadperl] | |
398 | - Added the Makefile to the dist dependencies. (Slaven Rezic) | |
399 | - Reversing the find_perl() version check failure warning introced in | |
400 | 6.10_03. Too talkative, warned when nothing was wrong. | |
401 | * Fixing META.yml auto-addition when there's no newline at the end | |
402 | of the MANIFEST [rt.cpan.org 2444] | |
403 | * Making it a bit more obvious in the MANIFEST where META.yml comes from. | |
404 | - Fixed $_ clobbering in ExtUtils::Manifest functions. | |
405 | - [rt.cpan.org 2591] some LD_RUN_PATH thing (Marek Rouchal) | |
406 | - Added core.\d+ files to 'make clean' [rt.cpan.org 2543] (Slaven Rezic) | |
407 | - INST_* targets were expanded too early (Stas Bekman) | |
408 | - Adding ExtUtils::MakeMaker::bytes (bytes.pm backwards compat wrapper) | |
409 | - Fixing MM_MacOS so it will compile on 5.5.x machines (use bytes wrapper) | |
410 | * Reducing perldepend set of CORE/*.h dependencies to what 5.5.3 has. | |
411 | 5.5.3 should be able to compile XS again. | |
412 | * Eliminating fakethr.h and perlsfio.h from VMS's perldepend as they | |
413 | sometimes don't get installed. | |
414 | - ExtUtils::Install was making a few directories even with the | |
415 | "don't really do it" switch on (Slaven Rezic) | |
416 | * can build static linked perl binaries again. Probably damaged in | |
417 | 6.06_01 when $self->{MAKEFILE} became FIRST_MAKEFILE. (Nick Clark) | |
418 | ||
419 | 6.10_03 Fri Apr 11 00:21:25 PDT 2003 | |
420 | * Added NO_META WriteMakefile() option to suppress generation of | |
421 | META.yml. (Spoon, rt.cpan.org 2359) | |
422 | - Spurious linebreak in uninstall_from_sitedirs on VMS (Craig Berry) | |
423 | * A bit after 6.05 man page names would come out as lib::Foo::Bar | |
424 | if the module name didn't contain a ::. Found with podulators. | |
425 | Fixed. | |
426 | * Skipping installation of RCS ,v files. | |
427 | * 'make ci' was busted between 6.05 and 6.06_01. Fixed. (Andreas) | |
428 | - 'make test' was broken when there's no tests. Introduced in 6.06_03. | |
429 | (Stas Bekman) | |
430 | - Solving some directory depth problems in tests on oldish VMS systems. | |
431 | (Craig Berry) | |

436 | ||
437 | 6.10_02 Mon Apr 7 00:57:15 PDT 2003 | |
438 | * Removed 2>&1 experiment introduced in 6.10_01 for all non-Unixen | |
439 | except for OS/2. Thought Perl might emulate `... 2>&1`. It doesn't. | |
440 | Just on OS/2. | |
441 | ||
442 | 6.10_01 Sun Apr 6 19:31:42 PDT 2003 | |
443 | - Making install "Skip ... (unchanged)" message happen consistently | |
444 | - Checking file sizes as well as modification times when deciding | |
445 | to skip installing a file. | |
446 | - OS/2 was using $(RM) instead of $(RM_F) (Ilya) | |
447 | - OS/2 needs .dll removed on failed build (Ilya) | |
448 | - fixin() was assuming that rename() can overwrite the target (Ilya) | |
449 | - manifypods target was empty if there are no pods to manify. Put in | |
450 | at least $(NOECHO) $(NOOP) | |
451 | - Cygwin test to check for finding pod2man when building the perl core | |
452 | removed. No longer relevent. | |
453 | - Small fixes for dmake (Mattia Barbon) | |
454 | * Added "Reporting bugs" section to the PATCHING doc. | |
455 | - Minor bug in compile test missed ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid | |
456 | - Removing $(VERSION_FROM) from Makefile dependency. It was too | |
457 | annoying to rebuild the Makefile every time the module changed. | |
458 | Mentioned it in the FAQ instead. | |
459 | - Fixing PERL_ARCHIVE macro on VMS. Apparently it never appeared | |
460 | properly before. (Craig Berry) | |
461 | - Fixing ECHO on dmake. | |
462 | - Adding os_flavor() and os_flavor_is() | |
463 | - Making basic.t error output combine STDOUT & STDERR for easier | |
464 | reading. | |
465 | * ExtUtils::Manifest will now work case insensitively. | |
466 | - Fixed 'subroutine redefined' warnings in 00compile.t | |
467 | - Fixed it so typemaps are only looked for in the perl core library. | |
468 | * Hacking around VMS filesystem problems reconstructing package names | |
469 | from filenames in ExtUtils::Installed. (Jesper Naur) | |
470 | ||
471 | # There was no 6.06, I jumped straight to 6.10_XX because there's been | |

474 | 6.06_05 Mon Mar 31 02:44:11 PST 2003 | |
479d2113 MS |
475 | - Syncing into bleadperl. Minor nits revealed... |
476 | - AutoSplit open filehandle bug was fixed in bleadperl. Averted a | |
477 | warning because of this. | |
478 | - hint files were only being loaded if . happened to be in @INC. | |
479 | A bug/feature of File::Spec was stripping off the current dir from | |
480 | the front of hintfile paths causing Perl to look for them in @INC. | |
481 | Worked around. | |
482 | - Now checking $! for errors if a hint file returns undef | |
483 | - compile test was testing all of perl! Scaling back to just ExtUtils/ | |
484 | ||
485 | 6.06_04 Sun Mar 30 20:34:39 PST 2003 | |
486 | - Now looking for ExtUtils::xsubpp through @INC rather than just | |
487 | the perl core directories. This helps ExtUtils::ParseXS. | |
488 | - Systems which don't put their libraries under their $Config{prefix} | |
489 | (OS X, Debian) weren't putting their libraries in the spot declared | |
490 | in Config. It was going under $Config{prefix}. | |
491 | - Prerequisites check now deals better with X.Y_Z style alpha versions | |
492 | - ExtUtils::Liblist->ext() was using $Config{perllibs} which is a 5.6.1 | |
493 | thing. Falling back to $Config{libs} if perllibs isn't there. | |
494 | - ExtUtils::Command::MM now reads from @ARGV if called with no | |
495 | args. Makes the one liner a bit simpler. | |
496 | * Restored ExtUtils::Liblist::ext() for backwards compatibility. | |
497 | Missing since 5.6.1. | |
498 | - Switching to relative dirs for self-building to shorten | |
499 | command line lengths. | |
500 | - Fixing minor test warning on VMS when compiling ExtUtils::Manifest | |
501 | - Skipping STDIN read prompt() tests on 5.5.3. Can't test due to | |
502 | eof() not honor tied handles. | |
503 | - Config.pm on 5.5.3 doesn't have any concept of vendor*. This was | |
504 | causing warnings when generating the Makefile. | |
505 | ||
506 | 6.06_03 Sat Mar 29 19:44:53 PST 2003 | |
507 | - Added AUTHOR and ABSTRACT_FROM info for ppd generation. | |
508 | - Added echo() method to portably echo text to a file. | |
509 | - Worked around 5.8.0 eval 'require Foo::Bar' bug causing MakeMaker | |
510 | to think modules weren't installed. | |
511 | - Modernized VMS doc_*_install targets | |
512 | - Changed some $(PERL) -e "print ..." code to use $(ECHO). | |
513 | - Replaced uses of Delete/NoLog/NoConfirm with $(RM_F) in MM_VMS | |
514 | - Fixed some duplicate macros making MMS happy. | |
515 | - Fixed $ExtUtils::MM_VMS::Revision. It was just the $VERSION before. | |
516 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Command::MM::perllocal_install(), uninstall(), | |
517 | warn_if_old_packlist(). | |
518 | * Pulling File::Spec::VMS::fixpath() and eliminate_macros() into MM_VMS | |
519 | as the new cannonical location. They never should have been in F::S | |
520 | in the first place. | |
521 | * ExtUtils::Command::eqtime() would truncate the file being equalized! | |
522 | Holdover from exclusive .exists usage. | |
523 | - Cleaned up hard coded 'echo' and '@' to $(ECHO) and $(NOECHO) | |
524 | - $(SAY) is now $(ECHO) on VMS | |
525 | - Moved rogue initializations from tools_other() to init_others() | |
526 | - Normalized MM_VMS's tools_other() to mostly use its superclass. | |
527 | - split_command() was off-by-one when calculating max command line | |
528 | lengths causing it to run over on VMS | |
529 | - made split_command() a bit smarter, taking into account some macro | |
530 | expansion | |
531 | - Fixed initialization of OBJECT, DISTNAME and LDFROM on VMS | |
532 | - Fixed *_install target uses of File::Spec. | |
533 | - Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::vmsish wrapper around vmsish so MM_VMS | |
534 | can be compiled on non-VMS machines. For testing. | |
535 | * Added ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Tutorial about writing modules with | |
536 | MakeMaker. | |
537 | - Removed "always use h2xs" dogma. | |
538 | - Added compile & POD test | |
539 | * 'make distdir' now generates META.yml module meta-data file. | |
540 | Proof of concept. Have to syncronize with Module::Build. | |
541 | * Added maniadd() to ExtUtils::Manifest to add entries to the MANIFEST | |
542 | * ExtUtils::Command::chmod was not interpreting file permissions as | |
543 | octal. Also, docs & tests slightly wrong (thanks Stas Bekman). | |
544 | - ExtUtils::Install was hard coding blib/lib and blib/arch, unportable | |
545 | [perl #21526] | |
546 | ||
547 | 6.06_02 Mon Dec 23 20:39:57 PST 2002 | |
548 | * Lots of Win32 fixes busted between 6.05 and 6.06_01. | |
549 | * split_command() tests still not happy on Win32. Problems with | |
550 | shell vs Makefile escaping makes testing difficult. | |
551 | * VMS still broken. Need to convert File::Spec method calls back to | |
552 | object method calls so the weird FS::VMS->eliminate_macros() and | |
553 | fixpath() work again. | |
554 | ||
555 | 6.06_01 Thu Dec 19 00:14:49 PST 2002 | |
556 | - Andreas found that when building the core it is desirable for | |
557 | MakeMaker to use a relative path to perl. | |
558 | - File::Spec->catfile() has a bug where the resulting file may not be | |
559 | canonicalized. This was causing problems when generating manpaths. | |
560 | MakeMaker now uses its own fixed override for catfile(). | |
561 | - Fixed the POD recognition regex to properly catch /=head\d/ tags. | |
562 | * Added a PATCHING guideline document. | |
563 | - Updated the class hierarchy in NOTES. | |
564 | - Installed.t now cleans up after itself better. | |
565 | - Steve Purkis rewrote the manifypods system to use Pod::Man | |
566 | rather than pod2man. Its now portable and manifypods() moved from | |
567 | MM_Unix to MM_Any. As a result, lots of icky and redudant code went | |
568 | away. This also removes the POD2MAN macro, but noone should be | |
569 | using that. | |
570 | - "make manifypods" now works on Win32 | |
571 | - "make manifypods" is now be faster | |
572 | - Made MM_Unix->find_perl more portable. Eliminated MM_Win32->find_perl | |
573 | override. MM_VMS->find_perl remains. | |
574 | * find_perl() can now handle filenames with spaces in them (RT448) | |
575 | * find_perl() on Win32 no longer produces spurious "File Creation error" | |
576 | messages (perlbug ID 20020709.001) | |
577 | - Removed unfinished and unused maybe_command_in_dirs() | |
578 | - Removed dead SelfLoader cruft from MM_Unix. | |
579 | - Fixed PPD generation when the ppd contains quotes (RT1473) | |
580 | - Fixed PPD generation on VMS | |
581 | - Moved Win9x specific subdir_x() code from MM_Unix to MM_Win95 | |
582 | * Craig Berry fixed hint files on VMS | |
583 | - Added the perl_onliner() method to generate portable, safe one-liners | |
584 | - Changing hardcoded $self->{MAKEFILE} to $(FIRST_MAKEFILE). | |
585 | * Rafael Garcia-Suarez made MakeMaker ignore Subversion control files | |
586 | by default. | |
587 | - Added MAKEFILE_OLD macro. | |
588 | * No longer generating man pages by default on VMS. | |
589 | - Improved DISTNAME docs | |
590 | * Documented DISTVNAME and VERSION_SYM | |
591 | * Documented dist() | |
592 | - Seperated dist_core() into dist, tardist, uutardist, tarfile, | |
593 | zipdist, zipfile and shdist_target methods. Allows elimination | |
594 | of redundant code in MM_VMS. | |
595 | - Replaced WARN_IF_OLD_PACKLIST, DOC_INSTALL and UNINSTALL | |
596 | one-liners with ExtUtils::Command::MM functions | |
597 | - Replaced VMS hand-rolled perl code for TOUCH, CHMOD, RM_F and RM_RF | |
598 | with ExtUtils::Command functions. Added TEST_F. | |
599 | - Adding clean_subdirs target and clean_subdirs_target() method to | |
600 | generate same. This allows easier overriding of an unportable part | |
601 | of the clean target. | |
602 | - Defined DEV_NULL for MacOS | |
603 | - Removed ROOTEXT from MM_MacOS, apparently unused | |
604 | - Added $(DIRFILESEP) macro and init_DIRFILESEP to avoid | |
605 | hardcoding / or \. Reduces code duplication in the MM_* modules. | |
606 | - Added init_platform() and platform_constants() for OS specific | |
607 | macros. Moved OS specific macros from constants() overrides there. | |
608 | - Added init_VERSION() to setup various *VERSION* macros. | |
609 | - Added default wraplist() to make porting easier. | |
610 | - Added makemakerdflt_target() to guarantee 'all' is the default | |
611 | target. | |
612 | - Added special_targets() to handle things like .PHONY and make sure | |
613 | they come first. | |
614 | - Added init_linker() to initialize linker relatied macros. | |
615 | - MM_MacOS constants() disolves | |
616 | Moved MACPERL_SRC, MACPERL_LIB, MACPERL_INC from init_main() to | |
617 | init_platform(). | |
618 | Moved DEFINE and INC tweaking from constants() to init_main() | |
619 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION & XS_DEFINE_VERSION from constants() to | |
620 | init_VERSION(). | |
621 | Eliminated MODULES. Unused and its the same as TO_INST_PM | |
622 | Moved .INCLUDE from constants() to special_targets() | |
623 | ||
624 | - MM_NW5 constants() & init_others() disolves | |
625 | Moved LIBPTH, BASE_IMPORT, NLM_VERSION, MPKTOOL, TOOLPATH from | |
626 | init_others() to init_platform() | |
627 | Moved INCLUDE and PATH definitions from constants() to | |
628 | init_platform() | |
629 | Moved BOOT_SYMBOL, NLM_SHORT_NAME, PATH and INCLUDE from | |
630 | constants() to init_platform() | |
631 | ||
632 | - MM_Unix constants() goes on a diet | |
633 | Moved all macro definitions to init_* methods. | |
634 | Added MM_REVISION for completeness | |
635 | Using wraplist() instead of manual joining | |
636 | Moved .NO_CONFIG_REC, .SUFFIXES and .PHONY to special_targets() | |
637 | Moved makemakerdflt: to makemakerdeflt_target() | |
638 | Moved INST_{STATIC,DYNAMIC,BOOT} to init_INST() | |
639 | Moved EXPORT_LIST, PERL_ARCHIVE & PERL_ARCHIVE_AFTER to init_linker(). | |
640 | Moved PERL_MALLOC_DEF to init_platform() | |
641 | ||
642 | - MM_VMS constants() goes on a diet | |
643 | Moved DEFINE from constants() to init_main() | |
644 | Moved OBJECT & LDFROM from constants() to init_others() | |
645 | Moved MM_VMS_REVISION and PERL_VMS to init_platform | |
646 | Added MM_VMS_VERSION | |
647 | Moved DEFINE_VERSION, XS_DEFINE_VERSION and MAKEMAKER changes to | |
648 | init_VERSION | |
649 | Moved .SUFFIXES changes to special_targets() override. | |
650 | Eliminated $self->{PM_TO_BLIB}. Its redundant with $self->{PM}. | |
651 | constants() now consists only of fixpath() calls. | |
652 | ||
653 | - MM_Win32 constants() goes away | |
654 | Moved .USESHELL to special_targets() override. | |
655 | Everything else was redundant. | |
656 | ||
657 | - Added $(VERSION_FROM) to $(MAKEFILE) dependencies. Helpful for | |
658 | XS builds where the version number is very sensitive. | |
659 | - export_list(), perl_archive() and perl_archive_after() consolodated | |
660 | into init_linker(). | |
661 | - Added MM_NW5_VERSION, MM_Unix_VERSION, MM_Win32_VERSION, | |
662 | MM_VMS_VERSION. | |
663 | - Eliminated duplicate code in constants() overrides | |
664 | - Added all_target() for easier customization of what's run by default | |
665 | - Eliminated duplicate top_targets() overrides | |
666 | - Made tool_autosplit() method portable. Moved to MM_Any. Eliminated | |
667 | overrides. | |
668 | - Adding realclean_subdirs target and realclean_subdirs_target() | |
669 | method to generate same. This allows easier overriding of an | |
670 | unportable part of the realclean target. | |
671 | - Added oneliner() to create portable perl one-liners. | |
672 | - Craig Berry found some typos in ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid's VMS part | |
673 | * ExtUtils::Install did not work on MacPerl due to a hardcoded '.' | |
674 | * prompt() will now read from STDIN. | |
675 | - Craig Berry made sure extliblist() is always called even if LIBS | |
676 | is explicitly set to empty. | |
677 | * Added DESTDIR to make repacking easier. | |
678 | * $(*PREFIX) are returned to the INSTALL* variables. | |
679 | * Split $(PREFIX) into $(PERLPREFIX) and $(PREFIX). The former | |
680 | holds the location of the core libraries. The latter is the | |
681 | optional override prefix supplied by the user. | |
682 | * PREFIX overrides all other *PREFIXes when set in the Makefile.PL. | |
683 | This restores "make install PREFIX=foo". | |
684 | - Added quote_literal() to handle some shell quoting. | |
685 | - ExtUtils::MM_VMS now compilable on non-VMS platforms. | |
686 | - J. D. Laub made MakeMaker honor $Config{installstyle} | |
687 | - Renaming on OS/2 requires the target file to be removed. | |
688 | Partially fixed by Ilya, should be applied universally later. | |
689 | - Default MANIFEST.SKIP not catching files in subdirs. Fixed by Ilya. | |
690 | - Ilya fixed ExtUtils::Liblist->ext when called outside MakeMaker. | |
691 | - realclean was duplicating work already done by clean | |
692 | - Adding an explicit LICENSE | |
693 | - Cleaning up ExtUtils::Install docs. | |
694 | - ExtUtils::Install::uninstall() now has default verbose and | |
695 | dont_execute arguments. | |
696 | - Added some basic ExtUtils::Install tests | |
697 | - Fixed ExtUtils::Install::install() for relative dirs | |
698 | - Added split_command() and max_exec_len() to deal with long | |
699 | commands. | |
700 | - Seperated escape_newlines() from quote_literal(). This may | |
701 | be pointless. | |
702 | - pm_to_blib() now generated with split_command(). 3x speedup. | |
703 | - added init_dist() to initialize distribution constants | |
704 | - ExtUtils::Install::pm_to_blib() working around open filehandle | |
705 | bug in AutoSplit for systems with mandatory file locking. | |
706 | ||
707 | 6.05 Tue Aug 27 16:09:51 PDT 2002 | |
708 | - Output format of the hint file verbose diagnostic is now in | |
709 | a format native to the OS, so it broke a test on non-Unixen. | |
710 | ||
711 | 6.04 Mon Aug 26 18:31:11 PDT 2002 | |
712 | - Little fix for pre-5.8 Cygwin test to get the shared library names | |
713 | right. | |

1092 | - Removed unnecessary require of Exporter in many MM_* modules. | |
1093 | - MM_Cygwin was using an MM_Unix function directly without have | |
1094 | explicitly required MM_Unix. | |
1095 | - Most of MM_NW5 was redundant with MM_Win32. So MM_NW5 is now | |
1096 | a subclass of Win32 and the reduendant code has been deleted. | |
1097 | - Replaced lots of calls to File::Spec->updir, curdir and rootdir | |
1098 | with a global in MM_Unix. Should make things a bit faster. | |
1099 | - Untabified ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I hate tabs. | |
1100 | - "Which MM subclass should I use" logic moved from EU::MakeMaker | |
1101 | to EU::MM. | |
1102 | - Deprecated EU::MakeMaker::Version_check deleted. | |

1115 | * moved bin/inst to bin/instmodsh | |
1116 | * Some Win32 backporting fixes. The -x switch doesn't seem to | |
1117 | work on Win32/5.6.1. | |
1118 | * Bug on Win32. MAKEMAKER variable not set properly. | |
1119 | * _02 broke hints files. Now fixed. | |
1120 | - Minor prereq error formatting glitch | |
1121 | - ExtUtils::testlib no longer a thin wrapper around blib, now a | |
1122 | thin wrapper around lib like it was. blib is noisy on 5.6.1. | |
1123 | - Nick and chromatic found and fixed some warnings in the tests | |
