developer is officially maintaining the package.
The rationale for changing this from "tech-pkg" to "pkgsrc-users" is
that it implies that any user can try to maintain the package (by
submitting patches to the mailing list). Since the folks most likely
to care about the package are the folks that want to use it or are
already using it, this would leverage the energy of users who aren't
developers.

* 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.
This module lets Makefile.PL automatically install dependencies
via CPAN or CPANPLUS.
* Features
- Letting the user enable/disable optional dependencies.
- Support sane defaults by probing for the machine's capability.
- If not inside a cpan shell, use CPAN.pm to install dependencies.
- Enable/disable the associated tests automatically.
- Supply UNINST=1 when it is safe and possibly needed.
- Checks MANIFEST to avoid unnecessary grepping of EXE_FILES.
- Utilizes CPANPLUS and/or Sort::Versions where feasible.
- Offers check-only and skip-all Makefile.PL targets.
- Offers check-only and install-only Makefile targets.
- Take advantage of the 'sudo' command where available.
