techniques for finding packages, so packages that were made
easy_installable should be pip-installable as well.
pip is meant to improve on easy_install. Some of the improvements:
* All packages are downloaded before installation.
Partially-completed installation doesn't occur as a result.
* Care is taken to present useful output on the console.
* The reasons for actions are kept track of. For instance, if
a package is being installed, pip keeps track of why that package
was required.
* Error messages should be useful.
* The code is relatively concise and cohesive, making it easier
to use programmatically.
* Packages don't have to be installed as egg archives, they can
be installed flat (while keeping the egg metadata).
* Native support for other version control systems (Git, Mercurial
and Bazaar)
* Uninstallation of packages.
* Simple to define fixed sets of requirements and reliably
reproduce a set of packages.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.242
=================================
* Glib::GenPod: fix typo in default pspec values
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665331)
* Glib::GenPod: delete a duplicate key in %basic_types
(https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=665332)
* Change the FSF's address in all GPL license notices (RT#72664)
Overview of changes in Glib 1.241
=================================
* Register the boxed type Glib::GString, based almost completely on a patch by
Emmanuel Rodriguez (https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=663881).
* Fix linking against perl < 5.9.4 on some platforms; Do not use
SvREFCNT_inc_simple_void_NN as that was introduced in perl 5.9.4, which came
after the 5.8.0 we require.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.240
=================================
Since 1.22x (the previous stable series)
----------------------------------------
* Add Glib::Param::GType support.
* Add Glib::Log->set_default_handler() and
Glib::Log::default_handler().
* Add Glib::ParamSpec->override() and get_redirect_target().
* Add Glib::Param->get_default_value().
* Support the fundamental type Glib::GType.
* Correctly handle variables with "magic" attached, like tied
variables.
* Don't copy boxed objects when passing from Perl to C.
Since 1.233
-----------
* Nada.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.233
=================================
* Change the way we handle objects with floating references again, to be more
compatible.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.232
=================================
* In the documentation generated by Glib::GenPod, show default values for
properties.
* Correctly handle objects which have floating references.
* When checking whether a variable is a reference, correctly account for "get
magic", which occurs for example for tied variables. Add gperl_sv_is_ref for
other bindings to use.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.231
=================================
* Add Glib::Log->set_default_handler() and Glib::Log::default_handler().
* Add Glib::ParamSpec->override() and get_redirect_target().
* Add Glib::Param->get_default_value().
* Make Glib::ParamSpec->value_validate() copy boxed objects if necessary.
* Support the fundamental type Glib::GType.
* Correctly store and look up custom signal marshallers.
* Fix fetching default values for unichar properties of custom subclasses.
* Fix subclassing with {pspec, get, set}-style properties.
* Allow the Glib::Object "magic" to coexist with other extensions' "magic".
* Make Glib::GenPod create docs for child and style properties.
* Improve the documentation in a few places.
* Fix a few build and test failures.
Overview of changes in Glib 1.230
=================================
* Don't copy boxed objects when passing from Perl to C. This mainly affects
Perl subclasses which have signal handlers that involve boxed objects and use
signal_chain_from_overridden() to call parent signal handlers. With this
change, the parent's handlers will now operator on the same object that the
Perl code sees, and changes consequently propagate properly.
* Correctly handle variables with "set" magic attached in the default
SET_PROPERTY implementation for custom Perl subclasses.
* Add Glib::Param::GType support.
* Make Glib::Flags::bool() and as_arrayref() callable as methods.
* Allow undef for default_value in Glib::ParamSpec->string.
* Improve the documentation in a few places.
* Add gperl_hv_take_sv, a wrapper for hv_store, to our C API.
* Fix some build and test failures.
* The code to look up attributes for paths reused entries from a wrong
directory when two paths in question are in adjacent directories and
the name of the one directory is a prefix of the other.
* A wildcard that matches deeper hierarchy given to the "diff-index" command,
e.g. "git diff-index HEAD -- '*.txt'", incorrectly reported additions of
matching files even when there is no change.
* When producing a "thin pack" (primarily used in bundles and smart
HTTP transfers) out of a fully packed repository, we unnecessarily
avoided sending recent objects as a delta against objects we know
the other side has.
* "git send-email" did not properly treat sendemail.multiedit as a
boolean (e.g. setting it to "false" did not turn it off).
* Also contains minor fixes and documentation updates.
libgsf 1.14.22
Damien Lespiau:
* Fix thumbnailer manual install problem.
Morten:
* Fix error messages on win32.
* Fix resource limiting in thumbnailer.
* Ensure GsfOutput::name and GsfInput::name notifications.
* Cleanup old code.
* Drop support for gnome-vfs and bonobo.
* Fix ole2 entry sorting based on patch from Junping Zhang. [#665712]
Vincent Untz:
* New installation method for thumbnailer. [#651187]
Fixes since v1.7.7.2
--------------------
* Adjust the "quick-install-doc" procedures as preformatted
html/manpage are no longer in the source repository.
* The logic to optimize the locality of the data in a pack introduced in
1.7.7 was grossly inefficient.
* The logic to filter out forked projects in the project list in
"gitweb" was broken for some time.
* "git branch -m/-M" advertised to update RENAME_REF ref in the
commit log message that introduced the feature but not anywhere in
the documentation, and never did update such a ref anyway. This
undocumented misfeature that did not exist has been excised.
Fixes since v1.7.7.3
--------------------
* A few header dependencies were missing from the Makefile.
* Some newer parts of the code used C99 __VA_ARGS__ while we still
try to cater to older compilers.
* "git name-rev --all" tried to name all _objects_, naturally failing to
describe many blobs and trees, instead of showing only commits as
advertised in its documentation.
Fixes since v1.7.7.4
--------------------
* After fetching from a remote that has very long refname, the reporting
output could have corrupted by overrunning a static buffer.
* "git checkout" and "git merge" treated in-tree .gitignore and exclude
file in $GIT_DIR/info/ directory inconsistently when deciding which
untracked files are ignored and expendable.
Fixes since v1.7.7.5
--------------------
* The code to look up attributes for paths reused entries from a wrong
directory when two paths in question are in adjacent directories and
the name of the one directory is a prefix of the other.
* A wildcard that matches deeper hierarchy given to the "diff-index" command,
e.g. "git diff-index HEAD -- '*.txt'", incorrectly reported additions of
matching files even when there is no change.
* When producing a "thin pack" (primarily used in bundles and smart
HTTP transfers) out of a fully packed repository, we unnecessarily
avoided sending recent objects as a delta against objects we know
the other side has.
* Libraries are re-licensed from LGPLv2+ to dual-GPLv2+|LGPLv3+.
* build: Fix parallel Windows builds.
* libidn: Fix potential infloop in pr29 code.
* libidn: Add 'const' keyword to 'stringprep_ucs4_nfkc_normalize' function.
* Sync glib NFKC code and improve copyright/license statements.
* Update gnulib files and translations.
* API and ABI is backwards compatible with the previous version.
Experimental version released on January 16th, 2012.
* Respect stdin in atf-check. The previous release silenced stdin for any
processes spawned by atf, not only test programs, which caused breakage
in tests that pipe data through atf-check.
* Performance improvements to atf-sh.
* Enabled detection of unused parameters and variables in the code and
fixed all warnings.
* Changed the behavior of "developer mode". Compiler warnings are now
enabled unconditionally regardless of whether we are in developer mode or
not; developer mode is now only used to perform strict warning checks and
to enable assertions. Additionally, developer mode is now only
automatically enabled when building from the repository, not for formal
releases.
* Added new Autoconf M4 macros (ATF_ARG_WITH, ATF_CHECK_C and
ATF_CHECK_CXX) to provide a consistent way of defining a --with-arg flag
in configure scripts and detecting the presence of any of the ATF
bindings. Note that ATF_CHECK_SH was already introduced in 0.14, but it
has now been modified to also honor --with-atf if instantiated.
* Added timing support to atf-run / atf-report.
* Added support for a 'require.memory' property, to specify the minimum
amount of physical memory needed by the test case to yield valid results.
* PR bin/45690: Force an ISO-8859-1 encoding in the XML files generated by
atf-report so that invalid data in the output of test cases does not
mangle our report.
Changes from previous:
----------------------
0.15 2011-12-23 11:10:47 EST5EDT
Fixed:
- Repeated captures from a custom filehandle would return undef instead
of the empty string (and would warn). This has been fixed.
[rt.cpan.org #73374 part two. Thank you to Philipp Herz for help
in reproducing this bug.]
Other:
- Commented out debugging code for slightly less runtime overhead
0.14 2011-12-22 10:14:09 EST5EDT
Added:
- Capturing with custom filehandles will return only newly appended
output instead of everything already in the file.
[rt.cpan.org #73374]
0.13 2011-12-02 13:39:00 EST5EDT
Fixed:
- Fixed t/18-custom-capture.t failures on Windows due to tempfile
removal problems in the testfile
0.12 2011-12-01 16:58:05 EST5EDT
Added:
- New functions capture_stdout, capture_stderr, tee_stdout, tee_stderr
[rt.cpan.org #60515]
- Capture functions also returns the return values from the executed
coderef [rt.cpan.org #61794, adapted from patch by Christian Walde]
- Capture functions take optional custom filehandles for capturing
via named files instead of anonymous ones [inspired by Christian Walde]
Fixed:
- Tied filehandles based on Tie::StdHandle can now use the ":utf8"
layer; removed remaining TODO tests; adds Scalar::Util as a dependency
Changed:
- When Time::HiRes::usleep is available, tee operations will
sleep during the busy-loop waiting for tee processes to be ready
[rt.cpan.org #67858]
Changes from previous:
----------------------
0.91: 17 May 2011
- Support calling commands noninteractively (patch by Christian Kuelker)
- Support calling $term->run() multiple times (patch by Ryan Gies)
- Now clients can call process_a_cmd manually (patch by Martin Kluge)
- Undeprecate Term::ReadLine::Perl since it works on Windows.
0.9: 20 Mar 2011
- Relicensed from the somewhat ambiguous Perl license to the MIT license.
- Add eof_exit_hooks, patch by Lester Hightower
- Remove complete_history callback. It was an odd, ShellUI-specific feature.
- Remove history expansion (!!, !$, ^o^n). That implementation was too buggy.
- Fix bug: completion suggestion wasn't printed with Term::ReadLine::Gnu.
- Deprecate Term::ReadLine::Perl. Use Term::ReadLine::Gnu.
libstacktrace:
Remove signal handlers and other garbage.
All we need is __builtin_frame_address and __builtin_return_address
builtins and nothing else.
Documentation files have been moved to subproject "doc".
Run "mkcmake install-doc" for installing it (or change SUBPRJ_DFLT).
Only backtrace(3) in libc is accepted as an external implementation
of stacktrace(3). This may fix build failure on FreeBSD with
installed libexeinfo.
This is a regularly-scheduled bug-fix release.
