Release 1.08
The untie code in close() just seemed wrong, so just
remove it. The object still seems to get cleaned up
on various versions perl.

1.23 Thu Dec 29 2005
- In moving from CVS to SVN I forgot to bring ::Parent with it.
(The tests passed spuriously because it found the old version.)
- Upgraded Module::Install and shrunk Makefile.PL again to reflect
the new features in it.
- Upgraded List::Util dependency to 1.18 because of memory leaks
and problems with non XS versions of functions we use.
1.22 Wed Dec 21 2005
- Apparently generating spurious warnings on Perl 5.8.1
on Mac OS X when using SVK. Tentatively applying solution.
- No change in functionality on any platform.
- No need to upgrade unless you are seeing lots of warnings.
- Rolled back the File::Spec dependency from 0.82 to 0.80
to avoid needless upgrades in some 5.005 and 5.006 situations.
- Moved from older CVS repository to newer SVN repository
- Updated Makefile.PL to Module::Install 0.45
1.18 -- Fri Nov 25 09:30:29 CST 2005
Bug Fixes
* Fix pure-perl version of refaddr to avoid blessing an un-blessed reference
* Fix memory leak in first() and reduce()

Incompatible command line changes:
- 'monotone revert' now requires an argument. To revert your
entire working copy,
$ monotone revert
no longer works; instead, go to the root of your working
copy and run
$ monotone revert .
New features:
- Netsync now supports IPv6 (where OS support exists)
Bugs fixed:
- 'revert' gives feedback describing what it changes
- Database locking further tweaked, to allow more concurrent
access in situations where this is safe.
- On win32, ticker display was fixed, so that it no longer
prints a new line at each update.
- 'read' can now understand (and migrate) privkey packets
generated by monotone version 0.23 or earlier.
- 'log --diffs <files>' now prints only diffs for the given
files (previously, it would print only revisions in which
the given files changed, but would print all diffs for those
revisions).
- Win9x and WinNT 4 compatibility fixes.
New translations:
- pt_BR

This is a terse description of the new features added to readline-5.1 since
the release of readline-5.0.
1. New Features in Readline
a. The key sequence sent by the keypad `delete' key is now automatically
bound to delete-char.
b. A negative argument to menu-complete now cycles backward through the
completion list.
c. A new bindable readline variable: bind-tty-special-chars. If non-zero,
readline will bind the terminal special characters to their readline
equivalents when it's called (on by default).
d. New bindable command: vi-rubout. Saves deleted text for possible
reinsertion, as with any vi-mode `text modification' command; `X' is bound
to this in vi command mode.
e. If the rl_completion_query_items is set to a value < 0, readline never
asks the user whether or not to view the possible completions.
f. New application-callable auxiliary function, rl_variable_value, returns
a string corresponding to a readline variable's value.
g. When parsing inputrc files and variable binding commands, the parser
strips trailing whitespace from values assigned to boolean variables
before checking them.
h. A new external application-controllable variable that allows the LINES
and COLUMNS environment variables to set the window size regardless of
what the kernel returns.
NSIS (Nullsoft Scriptable Install System) is a professional open-source tool
for the development of Windows installers. It is designed to be as small and
flexible as possible and is therefore highly suitable for Internet
distribution.
An installer is not only the first experience of a user has with your product,
many software problems can also be solved by providing reliable installation
tools. NSIS allows you to create stable, quick and user friendly installers
that are capable of installing, uninstalling, setting system settings,
extracting files and more. With the NSIS scripting language you can implement
any custom logic you want.
The large collection of plug-ins, scripts and software in the Developer Center
helps you to build full featured installers and provides a solution for almost
every scenario.
Collection. The 0.96.9x releases will eventually become scons 0.97, but
the stable release is still 0.96.1 available in devel/scons. However, some
pacakges might need the newer capabilities.
SCons is an Open Source software construction tool--that is, a build tool;
an improved substitute for the classic Make utility; a better way to build
software.
LinCVS is a graphical Interface for the cvs client commandline tool on the
Unix, Windows and Mac OS X platform. It allows to load modules from a
server (checkout), create modules on the server (import), as well as
checking the state of directories and individual files or updating them.
Basic operations like add, remove and commit are supported as matter of
course, just like showing the actual differences between the server version
and the local sandbox, graphical display of the version tree, and manifoldy
graphical support of project maintenance. All actions are logged on the cvs
server (configurable via history), and are therewith comprehensible.
worth deleting anyhow however, if nobody uses it. According to the
sourceforge project page development on it has stopped, nothing depends
on it, and the sourceforge page has no record of the 0.3 version we have
in pkgsrc.
Collection. I had that one sitting here for a few months... I don't even
remember writing it, so maybe proper credit is lacking. In such case tell
me so.
The Term-Prompt module can be used to accept interactive input. You specify
the type of inputs allowed, a prompt, help text and defaults and it will deal
with the user interface, (and the user!), by displaying the prompt, showing the
default, and checking to be sure that the response is one of the legal choices.
Additional "types" that could be added would be a phone type, a social security
type, a generic numeric pattern type...
ArX-2.2.4 2005-Nov-16
"merge" now uses a three-way merge by default, with support for
external merge tools. "merge" also now takes the --update option
instead of using heuristics.
"merge", "dopatch", and "replay" now record when there are conflicts
in the tree, and "commit" will refuse to act unless they are cleaned
up with "resolve".
The --silent, --quiet, --default-output, --report, and --verbose
options have been replaced with -v and -q options.
ArX is now much more clever when dealing with renames.
"commit" and "tag" now support --author and --date options.
The patch queue manager has been updated.
Some bugs when working across filesystems have been fixed.
problems on NetBSD 1.6.2
Using nbpax allows extracting the archive correctly on NetBSD 1.6.2 (tar
in the base system has problems with long file names) and should not
concern other platforms since nbpax is part of the bootstrap.

Many new features and refinements.
Notable changes include:
* Konqueror is the second web browser to pass the Acid2 CSS test,
ahead of Firefox and Internet Explorer
* Konqueror can also now free web pages from adverts with its
ad-block feature
* SuperKaramba is included in KDE, providing well-integrated and
easy-to-install widgets for the user's desktop
* Kopete has support for MSN and Yahoo! webcams
* The edutainment module has three new applications (KGeography,
Kanagram and blinKen), and has seen huge improvements in Kalzium
aalib-x11 and aview-x11.
SDL dependencies change, so bump PKGREVISION (and BUILDLINK_RECOMMENDED)
for affected packages.
Addresses PR 32046 by Leonard Schmidt.
* Version 0.6.0 (released 2005-12-03)
** A C# port of Libidn has been contributed by Alexander Gnauck.
The port resides in the csharp/ directory. Configure will build it if
a working C# compiler can be found. Mono's "mcs" compiler is known to
work (available in Debian in the "mono-mcs" package), but PNET's
"cscc" compiler should also work (available in Debian in the "pnet"
package). The port is licensed under the GPL. Some Microsoft Visual
Studio project files are also present in the csharp/ directory, which
may be useful when building the port under Windows. The C# API is
currently not documented, improvements are gratefully accepted.
** Support shared libraries on Cygwin and Mingw32, thanks to Yaakov S.
** Fix memory leak.
** API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
New features since 0.2.2:
* ELF AMD64 and 32-bit shared object support (using the NASM notation
"WRT ..got", etc).
* STABS debugging format (enable with "-g stabs").
* NASM-like list format.
* XDF object format (64-bit basic format, similar in spirit to NASM's RDF).
* Dozens of bugfixes in x86 and AMD64 support.
* Numerous cross-platform build fixes.
* No perl dependencies for standard build.
* New man pages: yasm(1) and yasm_arch(7).
* Full support for ELF, including support for both AMD64 and 32-bit
x86 targets; note: for AMD64 output, the machine type must be set
to "amd64" using the "-m" command line option, e.g.
"yasm -m amd64 -f elf test.asm".
* Full warnings for integer overflow.
* Full support for AMD64 RIP-relative addressing; the two forms supported
are "[rip+val]" (direct index) and "[sym wrt rip]" (relocated relative).
* Many AMD64 bugfixes including correct operand size handling (and o64
override); thanks to the many bug reports to help improve YASM in this area!
refinecvsl is a Perl script which converts CVS repositories to
a SVN dump, suitable to load into a subversion repository by
the "svnadmin load" command.
- Added a RFC 2104 generic HMAC (keyed hashing for message
authentication) routine to the crypto section, with control blocks for
MD5, SHA1, SHA256, SHA384, and SHA512.
- Added support for UID and GID names (instead of just numbers) in
bg-installer.
- WARN: devel/ply/Makefile:22: Found absolute pathname: /${EGDIR}
As ${EGDIR} is already an absolute pathname, there's no need to prefix it
with a slash.
Overview of changes between 1.10.1 and 1.10.2
=============================================
* New improved Tibetan shaper module. [Pema Geyleg]
* Bug fix in Khmer shaper module. [Jens Herden]
* Respect fontconfig reassignment of font pixelsize. [Funda Wang]
* Make OpenType GPOS handling more robust/correct. [Greg Aumann]
* Various documentation fixes and improvements.
* Misc bug fixes.
* Open Pango modules with lazy-bind flags. [John Rice]
library with some exciting features such as approximate (fuzzy) matching.
At the core of TRE is a new algorithm for regular expression matching with
submatch addressing. The algorithm uses linear worst-case time in the length
of the text being searched, and quadratic worst-case time in the length of
the used regular expression. In other words, the time complexity of the
algorithm is O(M2N), where M is the length of the regular expression and N
is the length of the text. The used space is also quadratic on the length
of the regex, but does not depend on the searched string. This quadratic
behaviour occurs only on pathological cases which are probably very rare
in practice.
Major key management changes:
- Private keys are no longer stored in your database. They
are stored in ~/.monotone/keys/ (Unix, OS X) or
%APPDATA%\monotone\keys\ (Windows). 'db migrate' will
automatically move your keys out of your database and into
their proper location. Consequences:
- 'genkey' no longer requires a database. Simply run it
once when you first start using monotone, even before you
have created a database.
- Running 'genkey' once will suffice to give all databases
on one computer access to your key. No more fiddling with
'read'.
- When you want to make your key available on another
computer, simply copy over the appropriate file from your
'keys' directory to the corresponding directory on the new
computer.
- Private keys also use a more standard on-disk envelope
encoding ("PBE-PKCS5v20(SHA-1,TripleDES/CBC)") instead of
previous ARC4. More secure, and with extra crypto karma.
Netsync changes:
- Command line syntax for 'serve' changed; administrators WILL
have to adjust scripts.
monotone serve my.host.com "*"
becomes
monotone serve --bind=my.host.com "*"
or simply
monotone serve "*"
(to serve on the default port, on all interfaces).
- Speaking of which, we can now bind to all interfaces; run
'serve' without passing --bind, or with passing
--bind=:port, and monotone will listen on all interfaces.
- New option '--key-to-push' for 'push', 'sync', allows
administrator to push a new user's public key into a running
server without restarting it.
- Netsync permission hooks have new defaults that read a
description of allowed access out of a standard,
basic_io-based textfile (the same stanza-based format that
revisions use). Current hooks will continue to work, but
users may prefer to transition to this format; see manual
for details.
- Between these, it is now straightforward to change
permissions and add users without restarting your server.
- Improvements to experimental "usher" facility.
UI improvements:
- New convenience options "add --unknown", "drop --missing",
"revert --missing" do what you'd expect -- add all
non-ignored non-versioned files, drop all
deleted-but-undropped files, and restore all
deleted-but-undropped files, respectively.
- New selector "h:" to select heads of a branch. "h:" means
heads of current branch, "h:mybranch" means heads of
mybranch.
- Similarly, "b:" selector with no argument now refers to
current branch.
- Commit messages now have a blank line at the top so you can
start typing directly.
- No more obscure error messages when multiple monotone
processes attempt to access a single database at the same
time; we now fail early with a more sensible error message.
(Concurrent access has never caused database corruption;
this simply makes the corruption prevention less frustrating
for the user.)
- New handlers for SIGTERM, SIGINT to rollback database
transactions. Not visible to users (unless you're really
looking carefully). (Again, killing monotone has never been
able to cause database corruption; this simply causes the
transactions to be rolled back immediately, rather than the
next time monotone runs, which improves robustness in some
theoretical way.)
Changes in 'automate':
- New command 'automate keys' to get information on existing
keys in basic_io format.
Updated translations:
- fr
Smaller changes:
- Improved handling of multibyte characters in message
displays.
- Fixes to Botan's memory allocator, to avoid pathological
slowdowns in some rare cases.
- Fix bug in delta-storage code; we were not being as aggressive
about delta-compressing files and manifests as we should
have been.
- Minor bugs fixed, error messages improved.
- Upgrading from 0.23: You must run 'db migrate' and
provide your password, for each database.
the appropriate tool via USE_TOOLS (usually "gs:run"), and remove
ghostscript.mk. This change removes a rather out-dated file from
pkgsrc and switches packages to use the more compact implementation
of the Ghostcript-handling inside the tools framework.
libgsf 1.13.3
J.H.M. Dassen (Ray) :
* Improve documentation.
Jody :
* More work on extension interface to sax import wrapper.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
libgsf 1.13.0
Jody:
* API changes SAX wrappers for help OpenDoc and SpreadsheetML.
Kasal:
* Improve libtool versioning.
* Relax the gconf requirement.
Luciano Wolf:
* OpenDocument meta stream parser.
Sven Herzberg:
* Fix for GsfOutputGnomeVFS
API change with shlib major change -> BUILDLINK_DEPENDS bumped.
Changes between 1.3.1 and 1.4.0 (12-Sep-2003 to 02-Sep-2005)
*) Optimize insertion of free memory chunks by merging with
the spare area if possible to decrease memory fragmentation.
*) Fix mm_realloc() function: If the memory chunk passed to mm_realloc()
can't be extended and a new chunk must be allocated, the old memory
is copied into the new chunk with a call to memcpy(3). However, the
used size is the length of the new data and will cause memcpy(3) to
access memory beyond the old data chunk's boundaries.
[Kirk Petersen]
*) Upgraded build environment to GNU Libtool 1.5.20 and GNU shtool 2.0.2
[Ralf S. Engelschall]
*) Updated all copyright messages for year 2005.
[Ralf S. Engelschall]
2.103 Wed Sep 28 2005
- Removed Test::Inline::IO::File::VCS. It is incompleted, and never
should have been distributed in the dist.
2.102 Thu Sep 22 2005
- To handle people with problems installing RT and a few other
programs, add a dependency on Pod::Tests
2.101 Tue Sep 13 2005
- Rebuilding to synchronize with new Module::Install and
ExtUtils::AutoInstall
- Tweaks the per-section test code to make more applicable value
appear in the failure summary.
- Removed all remaining use of UNIVERSAL::isa, switching to a
more accurate Params::Util approach. Should allow for improved
extensibility.
2.100 Thu Jul 14 2005

0.78 Jul 19, 2005
- If an overloaded object returned false in boolean context, then it
would always fail "can" tests. Patch by Chi-Fung Fan.
0.77 Apr 29, 2005
- Neither --xs or --pm worked with the Makefile.PL the way they were
supposed to. Reported by Doug Treder.
- Moved source to my personal SVN repo.
https://svn.urth.org/svn/Params-Validate
- Updated ppport.h, which allows XS version to work with 5.00504.
This was broken since 0.75, at least.
1.22 Sep 30, 2005
- Added Exception::Class::Base->caught() so you can write
"My::Error->caught()". Apparently this is what Damian documented in
Perl Best Practices. Thanks to JD Hedden for pointing this out.
- Require Devel::StackTrace 1.12 to fix a test failure on Win32.
Reported by Garrett Goebel.
1.21 Apr 17, 2005
- Added Exception::Class->caught() as syntactic sugar for catching
exceptions in a "safe" manner. See the docs for details. Suggested
by Damian Conway.
0.04 Sat Sep 24 12:36:56 UTC 2005
- Tony Bowden now maintainer
- Document how to value when creating data
- Complete rewrite of tests
0.03 Tue Mar 11 18:30:01 GMT 2003
- Rearranged the docs a smidge.
- Added Japanese docs from perldocjp (thanks Atsuhi Kato)
- mk_classdata() is now explicitly only a class method
- Added this change log.
0.09 Thu Jun 30 15:02:37 BST 2005
- Fix a bug reported by Damian: want doesn't work (crashes) if
it's called from within the guard of a loop. See the comment
above upcontext_plus in Want.xs.
- Runs under the debugger!
- Give an error message (rather than segfaulting) if called from
a tie handler.
"Params::Util" provides a basic set of importable functions that
makes checking parameters a hell of a lot easier.
The functions provided by "Params::Util" check in the most strictly
correct manner, and in should not be fooled by odd cases.
Test::Deep gives you very flexible ways to check that the result
you got is the result you were expecting. At its simplest it compares
two structures by going through each level, ensuring that the values
match, that arrays and hashes have the same elements and that
references are blessed into the correct class. It also handles
circular data structures without getting caught in an infinite
loop.
Where it becomes more interesting is in allowing you to do something
besides simple exact comparisons. With strings, the = operator
checks that 2 strings are exactly equal but sometimes that's not
what you want. When you don't know exactly what the string should
be but you do know some things about how it should look, = is no
good and you must use pattern matching instead. Test::Deep provides
pattern matching for complex data structures.
In general, your tests shouldn't produce warnings. This modules
causes any warnings to be captured and stored. It automatically
adds an extra test that will run when your script ends to check
that there were no warnings. If there were any warnings, the test
will give a "not ok" and diagnostics of where, when, and what the
warning was, including a stack trace of what was going on when it
occurred.
If some of your tests are supposed to produce warnings then you
should be capturing and checking them with Test::Warn, that way
Test::NoWarnings will not see them and so not complain.
1.21 Wed Sep 28 2005
- Documenting ->autouse(@classes)
- Tidying up the POD a little to refer to features
in an order much more relevant to the reader.
1.20 Tue Aug 18 2005
- Catch and rethrow all error when autoloading during a ->can.
- Debugging can now only be done at compile time, and thus is
optimised out. The :debug flag is removed and instead you need
to preset $Class::Autouse::DEBUG.
Given that this was only for my benefit in the first place, it's
not appropriate to slow down everything else because of it.
1.18 Tue Jul 26 2005
- Added :nostat module to disable the initial stat checks
of modules.
1.00 Thu Sep 8 2005
- Has proven itself stable, promoting to 1.00
- Various small POD clean ups
- Adding default notifier to auto-compile the CGI functions
- Rebuilding with a newer (better) Module::Install
1.22 - Sun Oct 23 23:45:51 CDT 2005
[ENHANCEMENTS]
* Added check for lines with only whitespace before or after a
directive. Older POD formatters can get confused by such
lines since they goof up paragraph mode. (RT #6467)
[FIXES]
* Bumped up requirements to Test::Simple 0.62.
1.20 - Wed Jun 23 00:28:35 CDT 2004
[ENHANCEMENTS]
* Looks in blib/ if there is one, otherwise looks in lib/
* Thanks to David Wheeler for nudging.
Package change: depend on p5-Test-Simple for testing instead
of p5-Test-Builder-Tester, the latter is now included in the
former.
== Changes for 0.63 - September 12, 2005
* Added some text in the POD's synopsis regarding --defaultdeps and the
environment variable.
== Changes for 0.62 - July 9, 2005
* With CPANPLUS, we no longer probe $Config{sitelib} for writability
and suggest `sudo` for the entire installation process, as CPANPLUS
can handle this with `sudo` on `make install`. Reported by Sungo.
1.13 Wed Sep 28 2005
- Fixed a minor POD bug in the synopsis
1.12 Fri Sep 9 2005
- Added a fix for classes with insanely broken ->isa methods
that cause Perl to die.
1.11 Tue Sep 6 2005
- It occured to me after I added ->find that what it _really_ is
is a way to find all the subclasses, but then include the class
itself in the returned list. This method makes much more sense
it I don't return the class itself, and rename it ->subclasses
- Fixed broken Makefile.PL
1.10 Mon Sep 5 2005
- Added the ->find method
- Cleaned up and reorganised the POD
- Made sure all return conditions are documented properly
- Converted to Module::Install
1.09 skipped
Sort::Versions allows easy sorting of mixed non-numeric and numeric strings,
like the "version numbers" that many shared library systems and revision
control packages use. This is quite useful if you are trying to deal with
shared libraries. It can also be applied to applications that intersperse
variable-width numeric fields within text. Other applications can
undoubtedly be found.
This is a new version of p5-SortVersion. Changes since the last
p5-SortVersions package:
2003-08-24 23:58 ed
* README, Versions.pm: Version 1.5.
2003-08-24 23:57 ed
* mkdist: Changed to 'mkdist' written in Perl; now checks version
numbers.
2003-08-24 23:43 ed
* Makefile.PL: Removed DISTNAME - change to Perl standard
convention of calling the package Sort-Versions-xxx.tar.gz. Though
I don't know quite what DISTNAME did.
2003-08-24 23:41 ed
* Makefile.PL: Get the version number from Versions.pm rather than
hardcoding it in Makefile.PL.
2003-08-24 23:37 ed
* Versions.pm: Removed CVS log; I'm not that keen on it, especially
as most of the log messages were empty.
2003-08-24 23:33 ed
* t/versions.t: Use Test::More (based on patch from mwj99).
2003-08-24 23:25 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some more test cases and commented the
existing tests. I think this partly follows a patch from mwj99.
2002-09-01 19:20 ed
* README: Some revisions and modernizing prompted by Matt's new
version (although I didn't incorporate all his changes).
2002-09-01 15:03 ed
* Versions.pm: Updated my email address.
2002-03-09 18:19 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some tests for calling versioncmp directly,
if perl >= 5.6.
2002-03-09 18:19 ed
* Versions.pm: Made versions() deprecated, so versioncmp() is the
routine to call. Small code tidying.
2002-03-09 17:38 ed
* t/versions.t: Run each test in package main and package Foo.
2002-03-09 17:26 ed
* Versions.pm, t/versions.t: Applied patch from Slaven Rezic to let
versions() work when called from a package other than main. But
this is not the final answer, I intend to deprecate versions() and
move the code into versioncmp(), which has saner argument passing
(not the magic $a and $b).
2002-01-28 19:06 ed
* Versions.pm: Version 1.3: patch from Hack Kampbjørn for '-' digit
groupings as well as '.'.
2002-01-28 19:05 ed
* README: Added some rather lame examples of -.
2002-01-28 19:03 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some tests for - digit grouping.
2001-07-28 18:07 ed
* t/versions.t: Whoops - got the leading-zero tests the wrong way
round.
2001-07-28 18:07 ed
* README: Whoops - got the leading-zero examples the wrong way
round in the README.
2001-07-28 18:02 ed
* mkdist: Modified from Lingua::Preferred to Sort::Versions.
2001-07-28 17:52 ed
* Versions.pm: Added $VERSION.
2001-07-28 17:40 ed
* mkdist: Initial revision
2001-07-28 17:34 ed
* t/versions.t: Added tests for leading-zero numeric comparisons.
2001-07-28 17:33 ed
* Versions.pm: Added support for numeric comparisons where one
version number has a leading zero.
2001-07-28 17:32 ed
* README: Fixed spelling mistake.
1.12 Sep 30, 2005
- Newer versions of Perl use Unix-style filenames when reporting the
filename in caller(), which breaks Exception::Class tests on other
platforms, and is just kind of funky. This module now calls
File::Spec->canonpath() to clean up the filename in each frame.
Reported by Garret Goebel.
0.62 Sat Oct 8 01:25:03 PDT 2005
* Aborbed Test::Builder::Tester. The last release broke it because its
screen scraping Test::More and the failure output changed. By
distributing them together we ensure TBT won't break again.
* Test::Builder->BAILOUT() was missing.
- is_deeply() can now handle function and code refs in a very limited
way. It simply looks to see if they have the same referent.
[rt.cpan.org 14746]
0.61 Fri Sep 23 23:26:05 PDT 2005
- create.t was trying to read from a file before it had been closed
(and thus the changes may not have yet been written).
* is_deeply() would call stringification methods on non-object strings
which happened to be the name of a string overloaded class.
[rt.cpan.org 14675]
0.60_02 Tue Aug 9 00:27:41 PDT 2005
* Added Test::Builder::Module.
- Changed Test::More and Test::Simple to use Test::Builder::Module
- Minor Win32 testing nit in fail-more.t
* Added no_diag() method to Test::Builder and changed Test::More's
no_diag internals to use that. [rt.cpan.org 8655]
* Deprecated no_diag() as an option to "use Test::More". Call the
Test::Builder method instead.
0.60_01 Sun Jul 3 18:11:58 PDT 2005
- Moved the docs around a little to better group all the testing
functions together. [rt.cpan.org 8388]
* Added a BAIL_OUT() function to Test::More [rt.cpan.org 8381]
- Changed Test::Builder->BAILOUT to BAIL_OUT to match other method's
naming conventions. BAILOUT remains but is deprecated.
* Changed the standard failure diagnostics to include the test name.
[rt.cpan.org 12490]
- is_deeply() was broken for overloaded objects in the top level in
0.59_01. [rt.cpan.org 13506]
- String overloaded objects without an 'eq' or '==' method are now
handled in cmp_ok() and is().
- cmp_ok() will now treat overloaded objects as numbers if the comparison
operator is numeric. [rt.cpan.org 13156]
- cmp_ok(), like() and unlike will now throw uninit warnings if their
arguments are undefined. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
- cmp_ok() will now throw warnings as if the comparison were run
normally, for example cmp_ok(2, '==', 'foo') will warn about 'foo'
not being numeric. Previously all warnings in the comparison were
supressed. [rt.cpan.org 13155]
- Tests will now report *both* the number of tests failed and if the
wrong number of tests were run. Previously if tests failed and the
wrong number were run it would only report the latter.
[rt.cpan.org 13494]
- Missing or extra tests are not considered failures for the purposes
of calculating the exit code. Should there be no failures but the
wrong number of tests the exit code will be 254.
- Avoiding an unbalanced sort in eq_set() [bugs.perl.org 36354]
- Documenting that eq_set() doesn't deal well with refs.
- Clarified how is_deeply() compares a bit.
* Once again working on 5.4.5.
0.60 Tue May 3 14:20:34 PDT 2005
0.59_01 Tue Apr 26 21:51:12 PDT 2005
* Test::Builder now has a create() method which allows you to create
a brand spanking new Test::Builder object.
* require_ok() was not working for single letter module names.
* is_deeply() and eq_* now work with circular scalar references
(Thanks Fergal)
* Use of eq_* now officially discouraged.
- Removed eq_* from the SYNOPSIS.
- is_deeply(undef, $not_undef); now works. [rt.cpan.org 9441]
- is_deeply() was mistakenly interpeting the same reference used twice
in a data structure as being circular causing failures.
[rt.cpan.org 11623]
- Loading Test::Builder but not using it would interfere with the
exit code if the code exited. [rt.cpan.org 12310]
- is_deeply() diagnostics now disambiguate between stringified references
and references. [rt.cpan.org 8865]
- Files opened by the output methods are now autoflushed.
- todo() now honors $Level when looking for $TODO.
- Added sysdep for dynamic linker functions (dlopen etc).
- Fixed bug in self test for unix/selfpipe.c that caused problems with
running make.
- Switched from standard GPL to LGPL-2.1 license.
Overview of Changes from GLib 2.8.3 to GLib 2.8.4
=================================================
* Support aborting on critical warnings by setting
G_DEBUG=fatal_criticals in the environment
[Vincent Untz]
* Bug fixes [Sebastien Bacher, Tor Lillqvist,
Manish Singh, Morten Welinder, Andy Wingo]
* Documentation improvements [Steffen Gutmann,
Christophe Fergeau]
* Translation updates (he,ja,nl,th)
Including e.g. /usr/share/mk results in sys.mk read from there
as well. On DragonFly this adds X11BASE and results in obscure
breakages. Since the mk files are supposed to be self-contained,
it doesn't make much sense to look in other directories anyway.
Bump revision to annotate this.
Discussed-with: reed@.
Reported-by: Aggelos Economopoulos <aoiko AT cc DOT ece DOT ntua DOT gr>
to intercept primarily the three most common types of
software defects: use of uninitialized variable,
nil-pointer references, and out-of-bounds array
indexing.
where Ada support has been added. Most of these changes are not part
of the official sources yet. The source used in this port is a snapshot
of AdaCore's CVS repository.
It is more consistent with the tex.buildlink3.mk name. Also, if a package
really needs latex, it just has to set TEX_ACCEPTED to latex distributions
altough today, all TEX_ACCEPTED possibilities are latex distributions
Remove GNU_CONFIGURE=no from pkgsrc Makefile.
Add "--mksrc none" to arguments and
add --prefix=${PREFIX} and --sysconfdir=${PKG_SYSCONFDIR}
and remove ${CONFIGURE_ARGS} for boot-strap.
Note that I didn't import the files that only change was a
CVS $Id$ tag.
From ChangeLog:
2005-11-05 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@void.crufty.net>
* Makefile.in (BMAKE_VERSION): bump to 20051105
* configure.in: always set default_sys_path
default is ${prefix}/share/mk
- remove prefix_sys_path, anyone wanting more than above
needs to set it manually.
2005-11-04 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@void.crufty.net>
* boot-strap: make this a bit easier for pkgsrc folk.
bootstrap still fails on IRIX64 since MACHINE_ARCH gets set to
'mips' while pkgsrc wants 'mipseb' or 'mipsel'
2005-11-02 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@void.crufty.net>
* Makefile.in (BMAKE_VERSION): bump to 20051102
* job.c (JobFinish): fix likely ancient merge lossage
fix from Todd Vierling.
* boot-strap (srcdir): allow setting mksrc=none
2005-10-31 Simon J. Gerraty <sjg@void.crufty.net>
* Makefile.in (BMAKE_VERSION): bump to 20051031
* ranlib.h: skip on OSF too.
(NetBSD PR 31864)
Fix major problem brought to the surface by buildlink3 on Interix. For C++
or F77 libraries only, the soname did not always make it into the final
binary, resulting in runtime link failures in some cases and runtime linking
with a missing major version in others.
This is unfortunately a flag day for Interix + pkgsrc. Identifying all the
PKGREVISIONs normally requiring a bump is a little too unwieldy. However,
existing binaries not experiencing the runtime link failure will continue
to run, but will be linking against the unversioned ".so" at runtime until
the binaries have been rebuilt.
While here, fix a couple wrong assumptions in the libtool config for
Interix. shlibvar_overrides_runpath should have been "no", and
hardcode_direct should have been "yes".
XXX: the package is heavily gnome-infested, pulling in half the
known universe via lablgtk2. Only the gnome-canvas bindings
are really needed; there's a local copy of lablgtk2 in the
m-viz source tree now, perhaps use that?
0.12:
- change the way displayed branches are selected: now one can view
any set of branches
- allow the ancestry graph view to be limited by date
- the `query' window now uses monotone selectors
- change the reconnection algorithm
- cert values can be copied to the clipboard (via a context menu)
- DnD support: accept drops from a file manager
- rewrite the sqlite bindings (use parsed statements now)
0.11:
- a new `query' window to search for revision matching some criterion
- some DnD support: drag a node and drop it in a terminal to copy its
revision id
- tweak the reconnection algorithm
- build with a shared sqlite library by default
- add a preference option for the location of the `dot' program
0.10:
- try to reconnect disconnected parts of the graph (by adding grey edges)
- libgnomecanvas hack to speed up drawing
- somehow display the output of monotone diff, even if it is not valid UTF-8
- middle clicking on the graph with a (prefix) of an id selected will
center the view on this id
- support builds with a shared sqlite library
(--with-shared-sqlite option to configure)
+ * src/check.h.in: Added include of stddef.h for NULL definition
+ * doc/tutorial.sgml: Fixed sourceforge bug #1216502
+ Refactored messaging to use the new tmpfile() method all the way,
+ removing the message keys, pipes, pipe entries and pipe list. This

+ * src/check.c, src/check.h.in, src/check_impl.h, src/check_run.c,
+ tests/check_check_master.c, tests/check_check_sub.c:
+ Added support for testing on expected signals. Implementation
+ courtesy of Lucas Di Pentima and Cesar Ballardini. Also cleaned
+ up the test verification to simplify merging of new tests.
+ * src/check.c, src/check_list.c, src/check_list.h, src/check_log.c,
+ src/check_msg.c, tests/check_list.c:
+ Changed name on function list_create to check_list_create to avoid
+ name clash.
+ * src/check.c, src/check.h.in, tests/check_check_master.c,

I got few private comments that one should not use buildlink3.mk but the
standard DEPENDS statement because we do not link against libraries
in this case.

0.2611 Mon Jun 13 22:22:53 CDT 2005
- Fix the output of an informational message that we output when
changing the 'shebang line' in installable scripts. [Robin Barker]
- Backported a change from the 0.27_xx branch that keeps track of any
custom Module::Build subclass that might have been created in the
Build.PL script, so that we can reinstantiate the right class in
new_from_context(). [Requested by Jos Boumans]
Same 15 test failures as 0.2610.
symbol confusion in unix vs UNIX) and those updating guile-slib to fix
problems might not realize they have to update slib as well.
Suggestion from Chris Gilbert.
The plan is to remove the out-of-date source from bootstrap/bmake.
Sources obtained from ftp://ftp.NetBSD.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/sjg/.
Source is kept in files/ for bootstrap purposes (to be done).
Update to version bmake-20051002. Changes include:
* Makefile.in (BMAKE_VERSION): bump to 20051001
support for UnixWare and some other systems,
based on patches from pkgsrc/bootstrap
Remove DEPENDS for mk-files (as mentioned on tech-pkg in June).
Use libnbcompat. Also patch-aa is to use libnbcompat.
(I chose to use patches so files would be exact from original source
tarball.)
And use PKGMANDIR.
