a7a8ace5fe Revision bump after updating perl5 to 5.14.1. 2011-08-14 14:52:49 +00:00

c3f1e700ad Bump the PKGREVISION for all packages which depend directly on perl,
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.

The list of packages is computed by finding all packages which end
up having either of PERL5_USE_PACKLIST, BUILDLINK_API_DEPENDS.perl,
or PERL5_PACKLIST defined in their make setup (tested via
"make show-vars VARNAMES=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.

sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

2a3053f67a Importing textproc/p5-Pod-Abstract as dependency of upcoming Padre
import.

POD::Abstract provides a means to load a POD (or POD compatible) document
without direct reference to it's syntax, and perform manipulations on the
abstract syntax tree.

This can be used to support additional features for POD, to format output,
to compile into alternative formats, etc.

WHY?
====

If you've ever asked yourself "What does Pod do for me?", this module is
intended to answer that question.

While Pod looks like a simple format, the specification calls for a number
of special cases to be handled, and that makes any software that works on
Pod as text more complex than it needs to be.

In addition to this, Pod does not lend itself to a natural structured model.
This makes it difficult to manipulate without damaging the validity of the
document.

Pod::Abstract solves these problems by loading the document into a structured
tree, and providing consistent traversal, searching, manpulation and
re-serialisation. Pod related utilities are easy to write using Pod::Abstract.
