[[ Internals ]]
- Purging leftover PDP compiler flags.
5.55_03 Sat Apr 6 21:57:01 EST 2002
- Reversing "fix" for RT 444. It wasn't really fixed and it
caused havoc with Compress::Zlib and Tk.
5.55_02 Sat Apr 6 03:09:15 EST 2002
[[ Bug Fixes ]]
- Craig Berry fixed install on VMS (again, I munged the last patch)
- MakeMaker might not be recognizing it's in PERL_SRC on Win32.
Made safer.

$Config{archname}

* Long deprecated INST_EXE completely removed.
- Removing TEST_LIBS constant (never seen in a stable MM anyway)
- Added $default argument to prefixify() for safer prefixification.
[[ Bug Fixes ]]
- $mm->{PERM_*} were not being set
- fixin() redundantly chmod'ing scripts. Let the Makefile do that.
- The above means MM_Unix will now compile cleanly under strict
* init_dirscan's search for Makefile.PL's will no longer look
inside a distdir.
* Fixed running tests when there are t/'s in subdirs.
- MM_DOS inheriting from MM_Unix instead of MM_Win32. DJGPP
appears to be unix-like (bleadperl@15650)

(Craig Berry)
- little initialization glitch in MM_Win32.t
[[ Internals ]]

have the right line numbers.
5.54_01 Sat Mar 30 02:32:44 EST 2002
[[ New Features ]]
* Added FULLPERLRUN and FULLPERLRUNINST
[[ Bug Fixes ]]

[[ Test Fixes ]]
- adjusting for NFS time drift

[[ Bug Fixes ]]
- Removed duplicate NAME macro definition
- Fixed makemakerdflt target for VMS
* bleadperl@11460 introduced a bug with recursive Makefile.PL's not
having '.' in @INC. PDL should build now.

Only since 5.51_01 (RT 413)

* Error messages from dying Makefile.PL's and hint files were
accidentally supressed in 5.48_04. Fixed.

5.52_01 Tue Mar 26 00:24:26 EST 2002
[[ Bug Fixes ]]
* ActivePerl 5.6.1/build 631 now 100%
- Fixed some SelfLoader warnings
* ExtUtils::MM_Win32 not subclassed off of ExtUtils::MM_Any properly
- Bug in local $ENV{FOO} was causing failures in MM_Win32 tests.
Compensating for the bug.
- $Config{prefixexp} is sometimes bad on ActivePerl, compensating
- Accidentally left htmlifypods tests in MM_Win32 tests
[[ Doc Changes ]]
- Expanding Known Good list
- Adding Known Programs to README
5.51_01 Mon Mar 18 01:37:02 EST 2002
[[ API Changes ]]
- Removing xsubpp and typemap from the distribution. These are not
Perl version independent files and should not be upgraded.
- Removing ExtUtils::Embed. Version specific module and should
not be updated.
- Removing ExtUtils::Constant. Not directly tied to MakeMaker.
Will be distributed seperately by Nick Clark.
[[ New Features ]]
* realclean now deletes 'dist' directory.
[[ Bug Fixes ]]
* Fixing ExtUtils::Installed for VMS
* Fixed it so MakeMaker can build itself without needing an eariler
version installed
* Fixed ExtUtils::Installed so packlists work on VMS
* ExtUtils::MM_VMS test had a stupid typo that prevented most
of the tests from running.
- Fixing VMS so 'mmk' is always 'mmk all' (bleadperl 15218)
- ExtUtils::MM_Any->catfile was calling catdir
- Added Ken William's "speed up ExtUtils::Manifest" patch.
- Added Nick Clark's return value of manifest routines patch
(bleadperl@14978)
- Merging in bleadperl changes (14438, 14453, 14611, 14612, 14622,
14655, 14677, 14688, 14902, 15023, 15187, 15367)
- bleadperl change 15325 (VMS 'mmk all' hack) rejected.
- ExtUtils::MM_Any->test_via_harness() now using -MExtUtils::testlib
instead of -I's. This keeps the command line shorter on VMS, but
it means TEST_LIB doesn't work anymore. May prove problematic.
- PERLRUN now uses FULLPERL instead of PERL. This avoids
accidental use of miniperl. May cause problems in the core.
- Fixed test_via_harness() on VMS so it uses PERLRUN.
- ExtUtils::Manifest wrongly handling MANIFEST on VMS.
- ExtUtils::Manifest::maniskip broken due to misuse of /o on a regex.
5.50_01 Mon Mar 4 23:44:48 EST 2002
[[ API Changes ]]
htmlifypods and all HTML targets have been removed. It didn't
work properly. A target for HTMLifying of docs will be
added sometime in the future (read: send a patch).
- Deprecated ROOTEXT variable removed (its been deprecated for
more than five years).
- Removed ExtUtils::Miniperl from the CPAN distribution. Can't
see how its useful outside the core.
[[ New Features ]]
* Emacs backup files (ie. *~) are no longer copied into blib
(this means you won't get Foo.pm~ accidentally installed anymore).
- prefixify() now returns if the prefixification worked or not.
- added the Perl patchlevel info to the description embedded in DLLs
(Ilya Zakharevich perl change 14810)
[[ Bug Fixes ]]
* 5.49_01 broke anything that depended on the MM class to be loaded
with ExtUtils::MakeMaker, like CPAN. Temporarily fixed.
* Many places wrongfully assume MM methods can be called as class
methods! Inside and outside of MakeMaker.
* DOS now acts like Win32 instead of Unix. This should be less wrong.
- Netware tweak from Ananth Kesari (perl change 14780)
[[ Doc Changes ]]
* made the docs about the behavior of PREFIX a bit more vague
reflecting its odd behavior.
- Replaced references to %Config with things people are more likely
to understand in PREFIX & LIB docs.
- Put PREFIX before LIB in the docs.
[[ Internal Refactorings ]]
- File::Spec wrappers consolidated in MM_Any
- test_via_harness/script consolidated in MM_Any
* Added ExtUtils::Command::MM to replace large -e "one-liners"
* Added ExtUtils::MM_UWIN, took UWIN specific code out of MM_Unix.
* Added ExtUtils::MM_DOS, took some DOS specific code out of MM_Unix
- Added a dist() override to MM_OS2.
- Took the OS/2 specific code out of MM_Unix's dist()
- Starting to quote as many command line switches as possible
to make VMS have to override less of MM_Unix.
5.49_01 Mon Feb 4 00:42:40 EST 2002
- Default TEST_LIBS now contains absolute paths, so tests can
chdir without breaking @INC.
- Some bug fixes in MM_Win32 were missing in MM_NW5.
- LLIBPERL was not being set.
- Gisle Aas fixed a warning in prompt when the user hits ctrl-D
or pipes STDIN to /dev/null.
- VMS's test is now a proper ->can check.
- Stray newline in Command.t causing havoc (bleadperl 14441)
* Lots of internal changes. Everything from here on is an internal
change.
- Broke ExtUtils::Liblist::Kid out into its own .pm. Temporary.
- Broke MM and MY out into their own .pm's. Possibly temporary.
- Broke ExtUtils::MM_Win95 out of ExtUtils::MM_Win32. MM_Win95
is now an MM_Win32 subclass.
- Removed wrapper methods from ExtUtils::Liblist that were
defering File::Spec loading. Almost everything uses File::Spec
- Changed most of the 'our's to 'use vars' in prep for 5.005_03
backporting
- Changed ExtUtils::MakeMaker->import(...) cargo-cultery in MM_*
modules to proper "use ExtUtils::MakeMaker qw(...)"
- All non-Unix MM_* modules now directly inherit from MM_Unix.
They did this before, but in a round-about way.
- MM_* modules no longer directly muck with @MM::ISA. Instead
@MM::ISA does that itself.
- Removed unnecessary require of Exporter in many MM_* modules.
- MM_Cygwin was using an MM_Unix function directly without have
explicitly required MM_Unix.
- Most of MM_NW5 was redundant with MM_Win32. So MM_NW5 is now
a subclass of Win32 and the reduendant code has been deleted.
- Replaced lots of calls to File::Spec->updir, curdir and rootdir
with a global in MM_Unix. Should make things a bit faster.
- Untabified ExtUtils::MakeMaker. I hate tabs.
- "Which MM subclass should I use" logic moved from EU::MakeMaker
to EU::MM.
- Deprecated EU::MakeMaker::Version_check deleted.
5.48_04 Mon Jan 21 19:28:38 EST 2002
- No longer requiring Test::More
- Now tested to work with a clean 5.6.1
- Stripped out $Revision based $VERSIONs.
- Rolled in patches from p5p, vmsperl & VOS (14325, 14338, 14360, 14364)
* hint files now run in a safer context. Only $self is available.
- ExtUtils::testlib now provides absolute paths into @INC.
No longer obsolete
- Little test fixes
5.48_03 Thu Jan 17 23:44:38 EST 2002
* moved bin/inst to bin/instmodsh
* Some Win32 backporting fixes. The -x switch doesn't seem to
work on Win32/5.6.1.
* Bug on Win32. MAKEMAKER variable not set properly.
* _02 broke hints files. Now fixed.
- Minor prereq error formatting glitch
- ExtUtils::testlib no longer a thin wrapper around blib, now a
thin wrapper around lib like it was. blib is noisy on 5.6.1.
- Nick and chromatic found and fixed some warnings in the tests
5.48_02 Wed Jan 16 19:11:26 EST 2002
- Fixed some Win32 warnings. Needs more work.
5.48_01 Wed Jan 16 15:10:28 EST 2002
* Adapted from bleadperl@14303
* Backported to 5.6.1
- inst and xsubpp moved out of lib/ and into bin/
- ExtUtils::testlib obsoleted. Now a thin wrapper around blib.pm
***--> Non-Unix platforms not tested at all! Please test and report
back. Tests probably only need minor fixes.
