* Several modules were updated to fix minor bugs.
* Tests were fixed.
* Documentation was improved.
Changes 5.14.0:
* Unicode version 6.0 is now supported.
* Regular expressions can now be reset to the default modifiers.
* Four new regular expression modifiers, "/d", "/l" , "/u", and "/a", were
introduced.
* The substitution operators now support the modifier "/r" to work
non-destructively, leaving the original unmodified.
* Larger octals can now be specified.
* Array and hash operators can now experimentally operate directly on hard
references.
* printf-like functions now understand post-1980 size modifiers.
* Exception handling was made more reliable and consistent.
* Other enhancements and many bug fixes were made
PkgSrc:
* Fixed configuring on Mac OS X 10.7.
pkgsrc changes:
- preparing for databases/p5-gdbm (using Makefile.common)
- supporting external access to perl install dirs (dirs.mk)
- fixing some errors/warnings from pkglint
- adding conflict to packages of CPAN modules which are in Perl5 code
on the one hand and are broken with perl-5.10+
Bumping PKGREVISION (dependencies changed, rebuild highly recommended).
Recursive rebuild is not required.
because some Perl modules make some (bad) assumptions about the
structure of a MakeMaker-generated Makefile. Instead, remove the
perllocal.pod file whenever a p5-* module or perl itself is removed.
While here, rename some of the install/deinstall templates to more
descriptive names.
Bump the PKGREVISION to 3.
for many "core" modules, UTF-8 and Unicode bugfixes, and ithreads
bugfixes.
The major changes are in the pkgsrc infrastructure to handle Perl and
Perl modules. All pkgsrc-installed Perl modules are now installed in
"vendor" directories, and the perl interpreter has been modifed to
search for libraries in the following order: site, vendor, perl. The
Perl library is stored in a directory that is named for the Perl ABI
version associated with the Perl release, so any updates of Perl to
newer versions can be done "in-place" as long as Perl ABI version
remains the same. All Perl scripts and man pages are stored in
locations that won't conflict between site, vendor, and perl modules,
and a new utility perllink(1) now manages symlinks to those scripts
and man pages under the usual ${LOCALBASE}/bin and ${LOCALBASE}/man/man1.
PERL5_SITEPREFIX may be set to the prefix where local, site-specific
modules will be installed, e.g. PERL5_SITEPREFIX=/usr/local. Note
that modules installed here are completely unmanaged by pkgsrc.
Update the buildlink and tool dependencies on perl to require perl>=5.8.7
to reflect the new locations for Perl modules and the Perl shared
library.
Plan:
(1) Change USE_PERL5=build into USE_TOOLS+=perl.
(2) Change all other USE_PERL5 into including perl5/buildlink3.mk.
Possibly, for packages that don't actually build anything with perl,
but merely require it for the perl interpreter, we can instead do:
USE_TOOLS+= perl
TOOLS_DEPMETHOD.perl= DEPENDS
but this is more verbose than simply including the perl5/buildlink3.mk
file.
Move the PERL5_REQD computation into a lang/perl5/version.mk file,
and only do the USE_PERL5 logic in bsd.pkg.use.mk if we're not using
the new tools framework. This consolidates all of the perl-handling
into two places -- lang/perl5 and mk/tools/perl.mk.
does. This allows us to use dynamic PLISTs for Perl modules that are
built using Module::Build. Bump the PKGREVISION of p5-Module-Build
to 1.
* Drop the use of PERL5_USES_MODULE_BUILD and introduce a new variable
PERL5_MODULE_TYPE that is either "MakeMaker" or "Module::Build" that
names the framework used to build/install the module.
* Split out the variables set in perl5/buildlink3.mk that are also used
by perl5/module.mk into a new file perl5/vars.mk. Move some PERL5_*
variable definitions from pkgsrc/mk/bsd.pkg.use.mk into perl5/vars.mk.
This just centralizes the common PERL5_* definitions into a single
file location.
* Convert the known packages that use Module::Build to set
PERL5_MODULE_TYPE and PERL5_PACKLIST:
devel/p5-Class-Container
devel/p5-Exception-Class
devel/p5-Log-Dispatch
devel/p5-Array-Compare
textproc/p5-Pod-Coverage
www/p5-Apache-Session-Wrapper

the PERL defintionen in the Makefile resulting from Makefile.PL gets
set to 0 if LANG || LC_<something> is set to something else (read non english).

MAKE_FLAGS with stuff that's only useful for building modules (and also
breaks the build of perl).
This fixes the breakage of perl modules not finding libperl.so caused by
the changes in revision 1.30 of this file.
INSTALLARCHLIB. During the build, INSTALLARCHLIB refers to the
directory where libperl.so may be found, which should point into the
default view. During the install, INSTALLARCHLIB refers to the
directory where the perllocal.pod file should be installed, which
should point into the package prefix.
so the the remainder of this file can use their values. Also override the
PREFIX with the module's PREFIX so the default directories end up pointing
in the right place.
