Hi all,GNU Stow 2.3.1 is now available for download from
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/stow/
and also from the mirrors[1] as soon as they catch up. Stow is a symlink farm manager program which takes distinct sets of software and/or data located in separate directories on the filesystem, and makes them all appear to be installed in a single directory tree. While Stow has often been used to manage system-wide software installations, it also provides a clean mechanism for managing software and configuration files in users' home directories:

http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/ [1] You can see a list of mirrors at http://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html or use http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/stow/ which will automatically redirect to a nearby mirror.Here is a summary of the changes since the previous release; please see the ChangeLog for full details.
* For improved ease of installation, dependencies on Hash::Merge and Clone::Choose introduced in 2.3.0 were removed again. Historically stow hasn't had runtime dependencies other than Perl itself, which is a useful property if you're managing the installation of Perl using stow. This property has now been restored. Many thanks to Adam Sampson for this patch! <https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-stow/2019-06/msg00001.html> * An issue with the test suite was fixed. t/cli.t was not testing with the right Perl executable, as reported here: <https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=129944> Thanks to Slaven Rezic for spotting this and reporting it! * Various maintainer tweaks The release process and its documentation were improved in various minor ways. Happy hacking, Adam
