- unlink and lock fixes for VMS (patch from Peter (Stig) Edwards)
2.13 Nov 17 2004
- Fixed bug where NoIndent broke KeyAttr (reported by David Haas)
- Added copy_hash helper method which may be overridden to avoid
tied hashes becoming untied during XMLout (patch from Jan Sundberg)
- Fixed bug where GroupTags corrupted source hashref in XMLout
(reported by Bram)
- Tweaks to SuppressEmpty for undef with XMLout (report from jamesb),
behaviour now matches docs and additional behaviour of setting
option to 1 will skip undefined values altogether
module directory has changed (eg. "darwin-2level" vs.
"darwin-thread-multi-2level").
binary packages of perl modules need to be distinguishable between
being built against threaded perl and unthreaded perl, so bump the
PKGREVISION of all perl module packages and introduce
BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED for perl as perl>=5.8.5nb5 so the correct
dependencies are registered and the binary packages are distinct.
addresses PR pkg/28619 from H. Todd Fujinaka.
