Happy one year (and two weeks) last MakeMaker alpha release anniversary! I
know, its sad.
This release is mostly about syncing up with bleadperl.
Let's call this a release candidate. If it tests out well I'll release it as 6.31.
Windows & VMS folks, I want to hear from you about your passes.
6.30_02 Fri Sep 1 15:03:55 EDT 2006
- Updated to ExtUtils::Install 1.41
* Won't scan for and build man pages when MAN3PODS is deliberately set
empty.
- Minor VMS fixes. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- VMS->one_liner must quote "--" argument. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
* Split INSTALLSCRIPT into INSTALLSCRIPT, INSTALLSITESCRIPT and
INSTALLVENDORSCRIPT so it now honors INSTALLDIRS. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- Minor fix to work with Pod::man 2.04. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
- $Revision was broken.
- Updated our internal version of Test::More to catch a few warnings.
- ExtUtils::Command::test_f() test was broken.
- Clarified that test_f() exits.
6.30_01 Tue Aug 16 23:53:27 PDT 2005
* Fixed compiling modules using an uninstalled Perl on Win32 by using
the proper perl header location for Windows (which is different from
Unix). Looks like a very old bug. [bugs.perl.org 36128]
- $ExtUtils::MakeMaker::Revision accidentally left in a stray "Revision".
[thanks pdx.pm for noticing this]
- Fixed the $VERSION = $Revision$ example in the MakeMaker docs and the
FAQ. [thanks again, pdx.pm]
- Elaborated on the differences between CVS, SVN and others when using
$Revision$ based $VERSIONs.
* ExtUtils::Command, ExtUtils::Install, ExtUtils::Manifest,
ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap, ExtUtils::Mksymlists and ExtUtils::Packlist
are all now considered to be separate distributions. To avoid a
circular dependency, MakeMaker distributes its own versions but CPAN
should not index them and they will not overwrite a newer, installed
version.
* Added EXTRA_META option to allow module authors to append extra
text to the generated META.yml.
* Added a LICENSE field mirroring Module::Build's license.
* META.yml support updated to version 1.1. All required fields
now generated. (NOTE: 1.1 isn't yet complete but we're going with
it anyway. MakeMaker uses "author" instead of "authored_by" as its
expected the former will be used in 1.1 final).
* Non-conforming version_from and installdirs META.yml fields removed.
* META.yml distribution_type field now intelligent enough to guess at
the type rather than hard code 'module'.
* INSTALLBASE changed to INSTALL_BASE to match Module::Build.
* Added a MAKE parameter for Windows users to say if they're using
dmake or nmake.
