Release 3.07
Use a Makefile.PL that is also suitable for core perl.

Release 3.06
Documentation tweaks.
use XSLoader; perl-5.6 now required.
Some consting from bleadperl.
Unbundled the {en,de}code-{base64,qp} utility scripts.
These are now found in the MIME-Base64-Scripts package.
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.

Release 3.05
Steve Hay found the warn test broken
on Windows and provided a fix.

Release 3.04
Fixed the bad-sv.t test script to actually contain the
correct expected result as of v3.02.

Release 3.03
Forgot to increment version number in MIME::QuotedPrint even
if its interface changed in 3.02. As a result you will now
need to require MIME::QuotedPrint 3.03 if you want to ensure
it provides the binmode interface.

Release 3.02
The encode_qp() function now takes an optional third argument
to select binary encoding mode.
<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=7456>
The result of encode_qp($non_empty, $eol) will now always be
$eol terminated. If the string to encode does not end with "\n"
then a soft line break is appended to the result. As an example
encode_qp("foo") used to be encoded as "foo", but now encodes as
"foo=\n".
Changes since 2.23:
===================

Release 3.01
By compiling the extension with PERL_NO_GET_CONTEXT we can
make it slightly faster on a threaded perl. No change on a
regular perl. Patch provided by <beau@beaucox.com>.
Fixed missing ";" with assert. Patch provided by
Brendan O'Dea <bod@debian.org>.
Release 3.00
Drop the pure Perl implementations of the encoders and
decoders. They are bloat that hides real problems in
the XS implementations. I will re-release them separately
in the new MIME-Base64-Perl distribution.
The 'gcc -Wall' fix in 2.22 broke support for perl5.005,
as the isXDIGIT() macro is not available in that perl.
This problem has now been fixed.
changes since 2.20:
Release 2.21
Documentation tweaks.
Don't rely on SvEND(sv) == '\0' as discussed in the perl5-porters
mailing list thread that starts with
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2003-10/msg00258.html
Should now pass test suite even without XS support.
Perl v5.005 or better is now required.
decode_qp() recognize soft whitespace when there is whitespace
between the '=' and the '\n'.
decode_qp() did eat up all trailing whitespace in the string decoded.
Only whitespace in front of "\n" should go.
* Fix up INSTALLDIRS for perl-5.8 and newer
* Make it reliable to disable base64 decoding warnings
* Passing "" as $eol to encode_qp() disable soft line breaks as well
* Sync up with changes in bleadperl
Release 2.16
Fixed the encode_qp() line breaking code. It sometimes
made lines longer than 76 chars and it could even get into
an infinite loop on certain inputs.
Release 2.15
Fixed the XS based decode_qp() for strings where a =XX
sequence was followed by digits.
Faster encode_qp() for long strings with lots of chars
that need escaping.
The old_decode_base64() function introduced in 2.13
was returning undef for empty input on olders perls.
This problem has been fixed.
Release 2.14
MIME::QuotedPrint functions now also implemented using XS
which make them faster. 2-3 times faster when encoding line by
line and as much as 200 times faster on long binary input. There
is probably some breakage on non-ASCII systems from this.
The encode_qp() function now takes an $eol argument in the
same way as encode_base64() does.
Slight change in behaviour: the decode_qp() function now turns
\r\n terminated lines into \n terminated lines. This makes is
more likely that encode_qp(decode_qp()) round-trip properly.
Included {en,de}code-{base64,qp} utility scripts.
Release 2.13
Sync up with bleadperl:
- Documentation update
- EBCDIC support
- Whitespace tweaks
- Improved Unicode support
- Test suite tweaks
Improved version of the old_{en,de}code_base64 functions
contributed by Paul Szabo <psz@maths.usyd.edu.au>.
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.
Speed up pure perl base64 encoder/decoder by using join/map instead
of while loop.

Downgrade UTF8 strings before starting to encode.
ones to do, and each compiled and installed/de-installed apparently
correctly.
As a side effect of the dynamic PLIST, we no longer need to have separate
-static and -shared PLISTs. It's now easier than ever to make a perl5
package for NetBSD :)
- New, optional Makefile variable HOMEPAGE, specifies a URL for
the home page of the software if it has one.
- The value of HOMEPAGE is used to add a link from the
README.html files.
- pkglint updated to know about it. The "correct" location for
HOMEPAGE in the Makefile is after MAINTAINER, in that same
section.
