Hello,
I'm pleased to announce, after a long time of development and beta testing, the first official release in the new 0.05x series of CPANPLUS. Below is the changelog from the last beta release to this one.
You can get it from: http://cpanplus.xs4all.nl/~kane/CPANPLUS-0.051.tar.gz
Or soon from a CPAN near you.
I'd like to thank again everyone who worked hard on this to make this release possible; the developers, testers and idea- fairies ;)
Changes for 0.051 Fri Jan 14 15:10:02 CET 2005 ====================================================
* First official release in the ground-up rewrite '0.05x' series * When determining installed versions, don't parse commented out versions * Version numbers of 'undef' aren't really versions, they are now treated as '0.0' * Split out 'create' into 'prepare' and 'create' so that package manager plugins can provide an option to alter metadata before actually building the package * Add convenience methods for 'prepare' and 'create' * Update CPANPLUS::Dist::Sample docs to reflect new prepare functionality * Use constants where possible * Add new methods 'contains' to get a list of modules contained in a package * Update to bundle Module::Build 0.2607 * Return to prefering Build.PL over Makefile.PL * Update various other bundled modules * Bundle Module::Pluggable for Dist:: plugin support * Missing test suites of module was not detected properly, resultings in undeserved 'pass' grade * dslip data with ';' in it caused parse errors * Mark a fatal error when loading the shell and not being able to load a valid config file * Various spelling fixes * Improve tests
