Pkgsrc changes:
o Apply fix from http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=470250
to prevent this module from looping on input "words" longer than
the current wrap coloumn. Problem also reported upstream via
CPAN's RT system.
to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.8.8 -> 5.10.0.
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=...").
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.
This is a module which intends to substitute Text::Wrap,
which supports internationalized texts including:
- multibyte encodings such as UTF-8, EUC-JP, EUC-KR, GB2312, and Big5,
- fullwidth characters like east Asian characters which appear in
UTF-8, EUC-JP, EUC-KR, GB2312, Big5, and so on,
- combining characters like diacritical marks which appear in UTF-8,
ISO-8859-11 (aka TIS-620), and so on, and
- languages which don't use whitespaces between words, like Chinese
and Japanese.
The text is to be given in locale encoding, not always in UTF-8.
(Of course locale encoding is UTF-8 in UTF-8 locales.)
