Changes for 0.82 Wed Aug 15 15:36:57 2007 ================================================ * Address [perl #43629] Perl 5.9.5. cpanp-run-perl not present as reported by Michael Cartmell. When running the tests, don't scan your include dirs/home dir for other CPANPLUS::Config::* entries, as they might contain data not correct for this test run. * Search the path paralel to your $^X explicitly for cpanp-run-perl (suggested by david cantrell) * Various clean ups in the CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugin::Remote plugin. * Small documentation fixes. Changes for 0.81_01 Sat Jul 7 10:45:37 2007 ================================================ * Add a callback to the CPANPLUS core for munging metafiles * Address #27562 (A way to specify external dependencies would be grand) by adding a --edit-metafile option to cpan2dist to allow you to edit generated metafiles, if your ::Dist::* plugin supports it * Make common shell options clearer in both hints and help message * Address #27914: Make the instructions in the Makefile.PL clearer as to how to install prerequisites. Patch submitted by Andy Dougherty * Address #27910: we didnt check for Module::Signature being present, just it's prereqs when heuristically configuring CPANPLUS for signature checking. Now, we also check for Module::Signature * Address #27913 documentation error in Makefile.PL that incorrectly showed how to invoke interactive configuration after installation * Clearer diagnostic when cpanp-run-perl can't be found * Apply steveh's patch to scan for .bat files as well on win32 when looking for installed programs * Whitespace patch from audreyt Changes for 0.80 Sun Jun 17 13:50:01 2007 ================================================ * Promote 0.79_04 to stable * apply patch to fix win32 short path fixing when arguments are given (thanks to steve hay for tracking it down) * Print header diagnostic during tests to show how to run tests in verbose mode for added debug output * Update bundled modules Changes for 0.79_04 Tue May 29 08:50:07 2007 ================================================ * Removed a fatal debug statement from cpan2dist. Users of cpan2dist should upgrade to this release. No other users should be affected. Changes for 0.79_03 Fri May 18 19:44:35 2007 ================================================ * address: #27057: Dry runs and dep tree. Make it possible to view which modules will be updated for what reasons when running 'selfupdate'. 's selfupdate' in the shell now prints this dependency tree out and also offers a --dryrun option * address: #27174: No way to pass case-insensitive patterns to ignorelist; All --ignore/--ban options for cpan2dist are now case insensitive * address: #26583: display of installed/required in report is confusing; Add a header to the columns generated for clarity * tweak test conf to play nicer with perl core * show version number when testing/installing * add callback to allow to continue after a failed 'make test' or 'build test' * reapply core patch #31028 -- it got lost somehow this fixes test setups under perl_core * add --set-config and --set-program to cpan2dist to overwrite random config entries for this invocation only * document all the options in CPANPLUS::Config * make saving cpanp-boxed config Just Work and add a banner to cpanp-boxed to tell you how to * expand the help text for 's' with options where applicable * clarify * and .. hint in default shell * silence warning in config.pm when a path to an .exe is not defined * The test suite now adds the '/nologo' option when the user has 'nmake.exe' configured as their 'make' program, to limit the amount of noise on the terminal. Changes for 0.79_02 Tue May 8 13:14:12 2007 ================================================ * address #26914 : CPANPLUS depending on Crypt::OpenPGP even when gpg is available. Change heuristics so we always use gpg when it's there and don't suggest to install Crypt::OpenPGP, as it's quite broken on a lot of platforms. This may cause a warning or 2, but all will continue to work * Logic bug in 'selfupdate --latest=0' is now fixed, with --latest=0 selfupdate should no longer be picking the newest version from CPAN if the current version is good enough * let perlwrapper be '' as well -- '-P' actually changes the format of some generated Makefiles * perlwrapper is no longer required to have Dist::MM to be available * apply Change 31121 by steveh@mugwump on 2007/05/03 07:51:17 this gets around the 'read only' issue of some files in perl-core when rsynced/extracted from uupacktool under win32 * cleanup t/.cpanplus dir when doing 'make clean' as well. * make sure we pass 'prereq_format' along, so prereqs get packaged properly as well. This addresses a mail from Hans Dieter Pearcey (hdp@icgroup.com) raising the issue. Changes for 0.79_01 Sun Apr 22 09:57:45 2007 ================================================ * Updates to integrate perl-core integration. Regular users do not need to upgrade. * Add clean up calls at the end of the tests as well if we're run from perl core. this is because perl core doesn't invoke our 'make clean', and files will be left that aren't in the manifest. * Make the scan for 'cpanp-run-perl' also consider cpanp-run- perl5.X.Y as it may be installed with the perl version as suffix explicitly * address: 26077: dependency on itself; CPANPLUS had a depenendency on the shell class you set as a default, even if that was a shell provided with CPANPLUS itself. This caused CPAN.pm to throw a fatal error, as it did not know how to resolve this dependency. CPANPLUS users were unaffected. Now, no dependency is added if the selected shell is bundled with CPANPLUS itself. * Add simple loadtest for CPANPLUS::Shell Changes for 0.78 Sat Mar 31 18:26:13 CEST 2007 ===================================================== * Promote 0.77_07 to stable * Update license & contact information * Make sure we don't install 'cpanp-boxed' when running 'make install'. * Update bundled version of Module::Install * Set install target to 'perl' for perl5.9.5 and higher Changes for 0.77_07 Fri Mar 23 17:19:07 CET 2007 ===================================================== * Smoke test revealed issue that PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_VERSION may not be formatted identically as $CPANPLUS::VERSION if certain versions of 'version.pm' are loaded. This is now addressed. * Tests for CPANPLUS::Dist::MM would fail on Win32 if the path to the Makefile.PL contains spaces. This is now addressed by calling Win32::GetShortPathName() if run on Win32. Changes for 0.77_06 Fri Mar 23 13:29:54 CET 2007 ===================================================== * Various test reporting fixes; * Add the leading '!' to missing prereqs, inspired by CPAN::Reporter * Address bug #25327: do not count as FAIL modules where prereqs are not filled. Now, when tests fail and: * version of prereqs installed is too low, send NA * prereq is not available on CPAN, send NA * Address: #25410: cpan2dist needs posibility for passing arbitary parameters to $obj->install; cpan2dist now accepts --dist-opts foo=bar * Add PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_VERSION as environment variable. It's set to the version of CPANPLUS running. Requested by Adam Kennedy . * Last statement evaluated in a Makefile.PL may be undef -- so don't die on that case in cpanp-run-perl * Some users add '.pm' to their package tarballs. fix the package string parser to recognize this and deal with it. * Address #25038 (Wrong platforms for MSDOS) and actually test modules in the MSDOS:: namespace on dos|os2|MSWin32|cygwin Changes for 0.77_05 Sun Feb 25 17:17:44 CET 2007 ===================================================== * Set $ENV{PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_EXECUTING} to the full path of the Makefile.PL file when running 'perl Makefile.PL'. Requested by Adam Kennedy . Changes for 0.77_04 Mon Feb 19 08:05:52 CET 2007 ===================================================== * CPAN testers reported test counter mismatches when test reporting was enabled vs disabled. This is purely a test counter issue. No functional code has been replaced. If you have installed 0.77_03, there is no need to upgrade to 0.77_04. Changes for 0.77_03 Sun Feb 18 17:35:12 CET 2007 ===================================================== * Rework the parse_module code; regex is more complex, but also more correct * Allow for more lenient parsing of module names, when the module name and package name do not match * Extend parse_module documentation to include URI * Patch Module.pm->package_name regex to also parse 'perl5.6.1' style packages * The package_[name, version, extension] subroutines are also reworked and use the same regular expression as parse_module does now * Add 'name' to the list of accessors returned by $mod->accessors (it's an alias to ->module) * 'installsiteman3dir' is a 5.8'ism which causes warnings under 5.6 so only check it if it is defined * Add the version number to the install log file name * Add "rescan" option to $conf->init to re-check your path for valid CPANPLUS::Config::* files * Warn if you're using the old "PERL5_CPANPLUS_CONFIG" env var to point to specific config files ( rt #23721 ) * Make $conf->save return the file name it saved to * Apply the suggested patch from Grant Mclean that calls $cb->flush(lib) just before 'make install' is called, so the blib/ dir is no longer at the front of the path. XML::SAX was writing a file dynamically based on @INC. * address RT #22962 Funky error messages when command-line args are missed: the default shell now has increased parsing logic * The check to see if the 'storable' feature was enabled was faulty. This has now been fixed. * Use the full path to a module's Makefile.PL when installing a module, so we don't pick up another Makefile.PL that happens to be in your @INC path. * No longer use can_run() to find cpanp-run-perl, as it's not an executable. Scan path manually in CPANPLUS::Config. * Document details() items properly * Show installed file in the details section * Fix documentation error for $cb->_home_dir (#rt 23196) * Log which configs are loaded at startup time; The shell default's banner shows you how to view these logs. * Make /showtips a plugin command * Extend CPANPLUS::Shell::Default synopsis with --xxx style options * Move to dummy modules for our tests, rather than bundled real modules. * All .t files now use t/inc/conf.pl exclusively for changes in the PATH/ENV/etc settings. This fix allows CPANPLUS to test cleanly with bleadperl (5.9.5) * Clean up the .cpanplus dir in the dummy-cpanplus directory at the start of every test to make sure we're running with a clean cache * Test fixes for Win32 * Disable IPC::Run on Win32 during 'make test'. IPC::Run gets unhappy about having 'odd' FDs allocated to it under Win32. * Update bundled modules * update bundled modules, includes version.pm for the first time * Add realclean targets for our dummy perl directory Changes for 0.077_02 Fri Oct 20 15:28:22 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * Implemented selfupdate functionality. You can use 's selfupdate' from the default shell. This will also work for bootstrapping purposes * Hints to use 'Bundle::CPANPLUS::Dependencies' have been removed in favour of 's selfupdate' * The default shell now shows tips at start up * Dont throw an error if a core module has the same version as it's duallifed counterpart on CPAN -- we can still install from CPAN * Update bundled modules * Remove cpanplus inc dir from @INC once we dispatch to cpanp from cpanp-boxed * Depend on newer versions of Object::Accessor and IPC::Cmd Changes for 0.076 Fri Oct 13 14:37:27 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * run external perl commands using cpanp-run-perl to enable autoflushing cross-platform, cross-ipc-module. * separate formats for printing 'conf' and 'program' sections * Add Module::ThirdParty support [rt #12131], see 'CPANPLUS::Module' documentation for usage * add cpantest_mx config option [rt #21346], see 'CPANPLUS::Internals::Report' documentation for usage. * update bundled modules, most notably IPC::Cmd, which should improve executing sub-commands significantly. Changes for 0.075_01 Thu Oct 5 17:08:27 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * Various small fixes to make CPANPLUS work better on Win32 Most of these fixes are done in the bundled modules or dependencies of CPANPLUS * update bundled modules from CPAN * no longer bundle IPC::Run, it's too unreliable * delete failed requires from %INC in cpanp-boxed * make sure we use 4-arg substr to avoid warning in default shell * skip undefined messages to error()/msg() Changes for 0.074 Fri Sep 8 13:12:37 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * remove the requires: section in META.yml; CPAN.pm thinks it's authoritive for requirement declarations and therefor gets our prereqs wrong. * replace CPANPLUS::Dist::Sample with the actual functional CPANPLUS::Dist::Base * increase the number of digits after the comma displayed in version numbers from 4 to 6, so that stringified x.y.z versions display properly in the Default shell. * add the writing of intsall-logs automatically from the default shell * update bundled modules Changes for 0.073_01 Wed Aug 2 15:40:38 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * 'install Bundle::CPANPLUS::Dependencies' should now work properly from cpanp-boxed, even without a --force option * Up requirements to more recent versions of among others Archive::Extract, CPANPLUS::Dist::Build, File::Fetch & Module::Load::Conditional. * Update bundled modules for cpanp-boxed * Don't change versions of bundled modules, this breaks 'use Foo 1.0' statements in our dependencies Uptodate check is now done with a new feature in Module::Load::Conditional that can check %INC. * Rework cpanp-boxed to deal better with bundled modules and their uptodateness * Move module::pluggable code to runtime rather than compiletime this makes 'require CPANPLUS' not run around the FS looking for config files until they are needed * Address #20737 (Failed to Setup CLI Programs with Arguments) where the interactive configuration wouldn't let you specify options to CLI programs * Address #20640: Always Sent 'pass' Report With 'force' => 1. Test reports are now marked as 'fail' when they fail, even when 'force' is true. * sent mail to module-build@perl.org with the patch for C::D::Build to have the same behaviour Changes for 0.072 Fri Jun 23 18:17:00 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * This is a major release of CPANPLUS. It includes all the changes from release 0.070_01, including the following changes made after the beta was released: * The POD text of CPANPLUS.pm has been revamped to be more of a guide than a technical reference. * $module->status is now lazily initialized, lowering overall RAM usage and startup time at the cost of a runtime penalty. Overall, this improves performance significantly. * Address #20005: CPANPLUS does not check size of downloaded module this adds code that checks if the downloaded size is equal to the size specified by the checksums file * Fix file fetching testing issue on Win32 (#18702) Changes for 0.070_01 Mon Jun 19 17:23:38 CEST 2006 ===================================================== * This is a major beta release of CPANPLUS, revamping the configuration mechanism. From now on, CPANPLUS no longer requires a setup to be run at installation time and should work 'out of the box' on most systems using a pre-built configuration file. * CPANPLUS now supports stacked configuration files: * CPANPLUS::Config is the heuristic config file which will always be installed sytemwide. * CPANPLUS::Config::System is the systemwide config file which can be installed by an admin in your perl installation path. This file will be available for everyone and override settings from CPANPLUS::Config * CPANPLUS::Config::User is the per-user config which can be installed by any user in their $HOME/.cpanplus directory. This file will be available for the user only and override settings from CPANPLUS::Config and CPANPLUS::Config::System * $HOME/.cpanplus/lib gets added automatically to your config search path. * All configuration types can be created and saved via the interactive Setup. You can invoke it from the default shell as follows: CPAN Terminal> s conf user # per user config CPAN Terminal> s conf system # system wide config or during installation time like this: $ perl Makefile.PL --setup * Makefile.PL has been stripped from all it's magic * Setup is now menu based for a better user experience. * make loading plugin configs work, with priority for system & user configs before the rest * address #19438: Key 'file' is of invalid type Turns out it's a bug in Module::Build, reported as #19741, which creates a 'Build' file when running 'perl Makefile.PL' on a M::B generated Makefile.PL Add a patch that detects this situation and informs the user * Demand Test::Harness 2.62 to be installed due to bug #19505 in earlier versions * IPC::Run is now required for Win32 & Cygwin * use $Config{path_ext} instead of hardcoded ':' to seperate $PATH in cpanp-boxed * Small test changes in 20.t to make sure no test output counter mismatches occur. * remove all 'clever' code from CPANPLUS::inc, as the new config methodology makes it obsolete. Basic functionality is retained only for backwards compat. * remove CPANPLUS config version checks back and forth -- should work without from now on * make cpanp-boxed work from others dirs than just bin/.. * make use of package::constants * Make sure Bundle-Foo.tgz also gets recognized as bundle * Data::Dumper indenting style set to '1' in default shell * make constants for libdir etc accept a list, not just a single param * address #19738: bogus entry in @INC * address: #18270: cpan2dist --archive breaks with relative path * address #18121: invalid value for 'checksum_value' which showed that old .stored files can mess up CPANPLUS untill they are rebuilt. From now on, Makefile.PL will delete old .stored files when installing a new version * mark all the versions of inc/ modules as -1, so we are always 'not uptodate' when asked to install them * remove old api that lets you set values in configure object via backend->new or configure->new, which was impractical and unused. * updated our bugreporting address to point at the rt.cpan.org queue. * Clean up source tree from obsolete files * Have 'make clean' clean up all the generated files Changes for 0.061 Wed Mar 15 16:09:03 CET 2006 ===================================================== * The template for the original configuration got shipped with a few default values that will not work on every system. Anyone who manually configures should not be affected, but the automated configuration may draw the wrong conclusion. For safetey sake, and to minimize possible issues for users, this release ships a template with sensible cross-platform defaults again Changes for 0.060 Fri Mar 10 17:19:06 CET 2006 ===================================================== * This is a major release of CPANPLUS, supporting 3rd party package creation and shell plugins * include bin/cpanp-boxed for a bootstrapped version of cpanp; this allows you to use cpanp without configuring/installing anything. * Include clear installation instructions in the README, beyond the simple 'perl Makefile.PL; make; make install' * save sources to disk after creating the trees, not at end of script this should speed up closing the application, at a one time overhead when parsing the sourcefiles * add more diagnostics on updating source files * Make CPANPLUS::inc redundant -- bundled modules required for boot strapping no longer get installed. * Update bundled modules for bootstrapping to most recent versions * Various tweaks to Makefile.PL to make installing friendlier * perl Makefile.PL AUTOINSTALL=1 now no longer requires any user input (just like $ENV{PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT} already did). * Filter out .meta files from the CHECKSUMS file * apply patch from yperl@club-internet.fr to stop Makefile.PL from dying if user doesn't want to configure now, and doesn't have an existing config.pm * fix typo introduced in 0.052 that broke Classic.pm * fix cpan2dist's ungraceful dying if the dist object was undefined (fixes part of [#17568] bad diagnostics from checksum errors/cpan2dist) * address #17655: [WISHLIST] Report bad signature send out a fail test report when a signature check fails * address #17984: (Two Problems in Makefile.PL) Changes for 0.059_01 Sat Oct 15 14:20:16 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This is a development release supporting 3rd party package creation and shell plugins * Add new callback to filter prereqs * Add plugin support to the default shell * Add a howto on writing plugins: CPANPLUS::Shell::Default::Plugins::HOWTO * Set Data::Dumper::Indent to 1 in the default shell * Document --update_source switch in the default shell * Add 's mirrors' to the default shell documentation * Improve Internals.pm documentation * Add basic documentation to undocumented functions in Utils.pm * Implement proper 'ignore' option for cpan2dist and rename old 'ignore' to 'ban' * Allow the --*list options to cpan2dist to be given more than once. * Fix typo in cpan2dist that wasn't setting the makefile preference correctly * Add an option to redirect output to cpan2dist * Add alarm functionality to cpan2dist * The 'sudo' setting is now being defaulted to its previous setting during setup * Attempt to show what previous config was found during setup if possible. * Disable checksums fetch when downloading readme * Store found prereqs in the dist object when we can * Use constants for strings where possible. * Determine installer type in CPANPLUS::Module::dist() if we haven't already * Support both cp_error/error and cp_msg/msg as diagnostic functions * When extracting files, make sure +x is set on directories * When extracting files, store their names * Renamed vcmp() to _vcmp() to mark it's privateness. * Add a seperate method in Dist.pm to check if a prereq has been satisfied, so modules subclassing Dist.pm may override it (thanks to Ken Williams). * Add an 'add_to_includepath' method to Module.pm, so modules can add their build paths to @INC. * Module::Build's 'perl version too low' diagnostic changed between releases. Make sure our test reporter understands both (fixes [#15197], thanks to Barbie) * t/01_CPANPLUS-Configure.t doesn't load CPANPLUS::Config directly anymore, as there may be an %ENV setting * Fix t/05_CPANPLUS-Internals-Fetch.t to compensate when being on non-unixy platforms [#1455] pointing to the config file instead * Update bundled modules to their latest version Changes for 0.0561 Sat Aug 20 19:57:15 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This release holds no functional changes over 0.056 * The META.yml did not get included in this distribution, meaning the PAUSE indexer indexed our include modules as well. Changes for 0.056 Sat Aug 20 13:31:17 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This release is identical to 0.056_01 but no longer marked as 'development release'. Changes for 0.056_01 Thu Aug 18 16:26:52 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This is a development release testing the splitting off of CPANPLUS::Dist::Buid into it's own package. * CPANPLUS::Dist::Deb got branched into it's own package * Make 'i URI' work from the default shell, enabling commands like 'i http://example.com/module.tgz'. parse_module() understands this as well (for API users) -- #11479 * Add test cases for lack of CPANPLUS::Dist::Deb * Add new test tarballs that provide the simples possible distributions * Add prereq to CPANPLUS::Dist::Deb if the user prefers to use Build.PL over Makefile.PL * Add a depencendency on Win32::Process on Win32 (bundled with AS perl, needed by IPC::Run) * Quell warnings about empty prerequisite lists (#13111) * Quell warnings about beta-versions being non-numeric (#14106) * Platform dependant modules were /always/ getting an NA grade regardless whether they failed or not (#13224) * Config keys are now sorted when printed in the default shell (as requested by Tux) * Extracted files now only get +w for the owner, not '755', as this interferes with some modules test suite ([#13358]) * Some modules uses module_name_version.ext rather than the usual module-name-version.ext. CPANPLUS now parses both correctly (#13367) * 's mirrors' in the default shell now lists your mirrors. To alter them you must still edit the config using 's edit' * Buffers are now autoflushed while invoking 'perl Makefile.PL'; Modules that asked questions during interactive install sometimes had their output held back in the buffer. Since not all modules do $|++ in their Makefile.PL, we do it for them (#12121) * The diagnostic reporting functions 'msg' and 'error' from CPANPLUS::Error got renamed to 'cp_msg' and 'cp_error' respectively, to avoid conflicts with Log::Message::Simple. (This only affects API developers). * All bundled modules are updated to their most recent version. Changes for 0.055 Sat Jun 4 15:53:37 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This release just affects users of the Test::Reporter and 'cpantest' utilities. * The 'munge_test_report' callback was getting the grade passed as of 0.054, but the default callback was now returning the wrong item. [#13086] Changes for 0.054 Fri Jun 3 17:44:40 CEST 2005 ===================================================== * This release paves the way for the CPANPLUS::Dist::* plugins, providing a framework from which to automatically create distributions from CPAN packages * Redo the 'cpan2dist' commandline tool, adding many new options * Record all messages from the 'make' command on the stack regardless. * Use the word 'test' when testing modules, not 'create' * Note in test reports that we skipped tests [#11587] * Fix some small documentation error [#11570] * Double check if a module is uptodate before asking the user -- another prereq may have installed it already [#11840] * Do a 'grep unique' on missing prerequisites, so we dont list them more than once, even if the test output does -- fixes bug [#11637] * Make sure we use an empty 'dist_type' in the tests in case the user set on in his config * Add a _copy function to Utils.pm * Make sure the 'force' flag is propagated properly to the 'resolve_prereqs' function * Add build_prereq flag to indicate prereqs should be built even when uptodate when run under a packagemanager * When running CPANPLUS from a path not (absolutely) in your @INC, we add our own path to 'original_inc' which we restore on shell outs * Pass the grade to the 'munge_report' handler * Many test report improvements as provided by Barbie in ticket #12302 * Not all prereqs live on CPAN -- skip noting them as a loaded prereq if we can't find it in the module tree (as reported in #12723) * Bundled a version of T::H that does supports the 'no_plan' feature of Test::More (#13019): We can't automatically do 'the right thing' as 'make test' invokes 'test_harness' which loads T::H before we can even interfere so we add a msg about too low version to the Makefile.PL instead and fall back to basic tests * Tell users why their sudo password might be asked during 'make test' Changes for 0.053 Fri Feb 11 10:07:08 CET 2005 ==================================================== * 0.052 did not ship with its META.yml, causing a few of the bundles modules to be indexed. This release is only relevant to the PAUSE indexer, and changes nothing on the client side whatsoever. Changes for 0.052 Wed Feb 9 18:44:13 CET 2005 ==================================================== * Make auto-installation work (with some guess work) if $ENV{PERL_MM_USE_DEFAULT} is set. * Setup decent defaults for the callbacks, so scripts don't have to set them unless they want actual callback behaviour (This helps ExtUtils::AutoInstall greatly). * chmod() extracted files to 755 so we do not get permission denied errors when trying to remove them or copy over them if they were not +w for the user. * Don't use sudo, even if it's configured, if the user is root already. * Default to 'prefer binary programs' if Compress::Zlib is not installed. * Make 'parse_module' deal better with paths that have sub directories in them. * Make 'parse_module' deal better with version numbers that have letters in them. * Don't shell out to get the perl version if the perl we looking for is $^X; * Improve finding a proper homedir for cpanplus on VMS * Accept the perl version as an optional argument to 'module_is_supplied_with_perl_core' * Require Test::Reporter 1.27 for test reporting; it fixes many bugs. * Only load Module::Build when we really needed it, not on any installation. * Fix a bug that made 's reconfigure' not use the defaults from your current config. * RedHat 9.0's stock perl has a few serious bugs in it (they applied custom patches) and will break CPANPLUS badly. Add a note to the makefile.pl that redhat users should upgrade their perl. * CPANPLUS::inc was encountering 'use' calls that had windows paths rather than unix paths (???). Patch to compensate for this. * Module::Load::Conditional cache is being flushed in standard flush runs now, allowing use of LWP (and similar) when it becomes available, even if it previously wasn't. * Don't copy 'Config.pm-orig' to 'Config.pm' during Makefile.PL stage -- if the user has a custom config and forgets to set the environment var, CPANPLUS' tests will use the wrong config. * Some tarballs have '.' as directory, rather than project sub directory. Guess first for extraction dir and verify, only then try the actual extract path. * Improve documentation in the Default shell * Improve test reporting texts as supplied by Barbie * Add a callback to munge test reports before they are sent * Add versions of loaded dependencies to the test reports. * Make limited tests on skipped configuration work properly. * Don't use sudo to install into our own sandbox for Module::Build tests * Skip module::build tests if we're under PERL_CORE and M::B is not available (not yet integrated) * Skip install tests if run under PERL_CORE * Adjust include paths and paths to perl when tests are run under PERL_CORE * Update bundled IPC::Run to version 0.80 * Update bundled Module::Build to version 0.26081 * Improve tests 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 Changes for 0.050_04 Sun Dec 26 16:54:46 CET 2004 ==================================================== * Add rsync support to CPANPLUS * List rsync mirrors during setup * Default to the email mentioned in Config.pm during setup * Add timeout support for fetching files from mirrors * Config version has gone up because of new timeout version -- reconfiguration required * Mention Bundle::CPANPLUS::Dependencies in the Makefile.PL * Add license information to dslip output * Send N/A Grade to cpantesters when your perl version is too low according to the Makefile.PL * Drop dependancy on Mail::Send for test reporting, use a fixed version of Test::Reporter instead * Alias $modobj->name to $modobj->module for more DWIMery * cpan2dist now allows creation of distributions from local tarballs as well * cpan2dist now uses the newly defined dist standard to find out where distributions were created * cpan2dist (and CPANPLUS::Dist) plugin detection is now regex based * Specifying CPANPLUS object id's when creating fake module or author objects is now optional * Small backward-compat hack to make sure old versions of ExtUtils::AutoInstall keep working with the new CPANPLUS * Various documentation patches * Update various bundled modules Changes for 0.050_03 Fri Dec 17 13:54:48 CET 2004 ==================================================== * Move to Module::Pluggable to find CPANPLUS::Dist::* plugins. * Make CPANPLUS::Dist::* generate a few required accessors itself, rather than making all submodules do it themselves * Rename cpan2dist.pl to cpan2dist to be more 'unixish' * Improve cpan2dist diagnostics * Add pod to cpan2dist * Change config layout for distribution types (incompatible change -- will require reconfiguration) * Add 2-way version checking so cpanplus + its config can both verify if their counterparts are compatible * Move logic for 'best_path_to_module_build' to Module.pm * Make logic to detect installed modules follow symlinks (required for among others, debian) * 'force install' will try even harder to install a module if it can, even if it previously failed. * Make test reports report the version of CPANPLUS, not the version of the constants file the headers are in. * Update various bundled modules to their newest versions * Stringify '$@' to avoid clobbering by sub routine calls * Various documentation improvements * Various spelling fixes * Clean up trailing whitespace from sources * Add more files to MANIFEST.skip * Update MANIFEST Changes for 0.050_02 Fri Dec 10 15:03:39 CET 2004 ==================================================== * Move CPANPLUS::Dist::(Deb|Ports) to it's own repository * Fix error when Test::Reporter is unavaliable * Various spelling fixes * Added CPANPLUS::Hacking pod with instructions how to hack on CPANPLUS * Added an environment variable 'PERL5_CPANPLUS_IS_RUNNING' which will be set to the current process id, so subprocesses can recognize that they are running under CPANPLUS * Some wordings have changed for the setup, to make things a bit clearer * Add 'do we have test::reporter support' probing code (used in test suite) * Add Mail::Send as a prerequisite for test::reporter support * Don't attempt to actually send test reports from our test suite -- Test::Reporter doesn't do that itself either, we might have failed tests due to Test::Reporter rather than ourselves * Mention 'bundle::cpanplus::test::reporter' which has all the modules needed to have test::reporter support enabled * Improved accuracy for core module detection logic and errors * More support for connecting to remote machines using CPANPLUS::Daemon (not yet released, but will be soon) * Add extra clean up arguments to our own Makefile to remove temp files * Extensive overhaul of CPANPLUS::Dist::Build to get Module::Build support working properly (lots of workarounds for bugs in the M::B API -- we now bundle a custom patched M::B (0.26061) to cope) * Module::Build now accepts buildflags * Seperate inc path for installers (defacto only Module::Build right now) * Update various bundled modules like Object::Accessor, IPC::Cmd, Archive::Extract. * Smarter loading of bundled modules * Various speed optimizations * 't --force' can send a new test::report now * Don't force current installer format onto prereqs, unless it's explicitly requested * Make the default shell be aware when it's running in noninteractive mode, making sure it makes no suggestions with require interactivity * Add a message about where the module was extracted to in verbose mode Changes for 0.050_1 Fri Dec 3 21:07:12 CET 2004 ==================================================== * Initial beta release of CPANPLUS 0.050 * Complete ground up rewrite
