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.

* removed DESTROY and disconnect - use DBD File's instead
* added ignore_missing_table flag to avoid warnings with
DROP TABLE IF EXISTS
2004-04-18 Jeff Zucker <jzuckerATcpan.org> (0.21)
* added support for $dbh->{Active}, should now work
well with Class::DBI and other caching systems
* added support for DROP TABLE IF EXISTS - doesn't
complain if table is already dropped
* removed DBD::File from the distribution - it's now
distributed with DBI 1.42 and higher
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.
* added parser-caching for speedier operation, see File.pm prepare()
* further adjustments in tests including fix for prototypes to make
it perl 5.8 compatible
adjusted docs to show Jeff as the new maintainer.
added docs for extended SQL features (joins, etc.) available
with SQL::Statement 1.0 and above.
adjusted tests blobs.t, chopblanks.t, and ak-dbd.t to work with
all versions of SQL::Statement.
The automatic truncation in gensolpkg doesn't work for packages which
have the same package name for the first 5-6 chars.
e.g. amanda-server and amanda-client would be named amanda and amanda.
Now, we add a SVR4_PKGNAME and use amacl for amanda-client and amase for
amanda-server.
All svr4 packages also have a vendor tag, so we have to reserve some chars
for this tag, which is normaly 3 or 4 chars. Thats why we can only use 6
or 5 chars for SVR4_PKGNAME. I used 5 for all the packages, to give the
vendor tag enough room.
All p5-* packages and a few other packages have now a SVR4_PKGNAME.
* lib/DBD/CSV.pm (fetch_row): Now cleaning $! before
calling $csv->getline(). Seems to return false errors
otherwise in some cases.
* Made Makefile.PL CPAN conformant.
* Removed unnecessary stuff in Makefile.PL which verified
the DBI installation.
* lib/DBD/File.pm (STORE): Changed croak to die.
* Minor fix in the docs
* Minor compatibility fixes in the test suite for Perl 5.6.
