to trigger/signal a rebuild for the transition 5.10.1 -> 5.12.1.
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=..."), minus the packages updated after
the perl package update.
sno@ was right after all, obache@ kindly asked and he@ led the
way. Thanks!

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.
Sort::Versions allows easy sorting of mixed non-numeric and numeric strings,
like the "version numbers" that many shared library systems and revision
control packages use. This is quite useful if you are trying to deal with
shared libraries. It can also be applied to applications that intersperse
variable-width numeric fields within text. Other applications can
undoubtedly be found.
This is a new version of p5-SortVersion. Changes since the last
p5-SortVersions package:
2003-08-24 23:58 ed
* README, Versions.pm: Version 1.5.
2003-08-24 23:57 ed
* mkdist: Changed to 'mkdist' written in Perl; now checks version
numbers.
2003-08-24 23:43 ed
* Makefile.PL: Removed DISTNAME - change to Perl standard
convention of calling the package Sort-Versions-xxx.tar.gz. Though
I don't know quite what DISTNAME did.
2003-08-24 23:41 ed
* Makefile.PL: Get the version number from Versions.pm rather than
hardcoding it in Makefile.PL.
2003-08-24 23:37 ed
* Versions.pm: Removed CVS log; I'm not that keen on it, especially
as most of the log messages were empty.
2003-08-24 23:33 ed
* t/versions.t: Use Test::More (based on patch from mwj99).
2003-08-24 23:25 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some more test cases and commented the
existing tests. I think this partly follows a patch from mwj99.
2002-09-01 19:20 ed
* README: Some revisions and modernizing prompted by Matt's new
version (although I didn't incorporate all his changes).
2002-09-01 15:03 ed
* Versions.pm: Updated my email address.
2002-03-09 18:19 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some tests for calling versioncmp directly,
if perl >= 5.6.
2002-03-09 18:19 ed
* Versions.pm: Made versions() deprecated, so versioncmp() is the
routine to call. Small code tidying.
2002-03-09 17:38 ed
* t/versions.t: Run each test in package main and package Foo.
2002-03-09 17:26 ed
* Versions.pm, t/versions.t: Applied patch from Slaven Rezic to let
versions() work when called from a package other than main. But
this is not the final answer, I intend to deprecate versions() and
move the code into versioncmp(), which has saner argument passing
(not the magic $a and $b).
2002-01-28 19:06 ed
* Versions.pm: Version 1.3: patch from Hack Kampbjørn for '-' digit
groupings as well as '.'.
2002-01-28 19:05 ed
* README: Added some rather lame examples of -.
2002-01-28 19:03 ed
* t/versions.t: Added some tests for - digit grouping.
2001-07-28 18:07 ed
* t/versions.t: Whoops - got the leading-zero tests the wrong way
round.
2001-07-28 18:07 ed
* README: Whoops - got the leading-zero examples the wrong way
round in the README.
2001-07-28 18:02 ed
* mkdist: Modified from Lingua::Preferred to Sort::Versions.
2001-07-28 17:52 ed
* Versions.pm: Added $VERSION.
2001-07-28 17:40 ed
* mkdist: Initial revision
2001-07-28 17:34 ed
* t/versions.t: Added tests for leading-zero numeric comparisons.
2001-07-28 17:33 ed
* Versions.pm: Added support for numeric comparisons where one
version number has a leading zero.
2001-07-28 17:32 ed
* README: Fixed spelling mistake.
