Upstream changes:
0.84 2009-01-21
- This release is based on version 2009a of the Olson
database. Changes include spelling "Katmandu" as "Kathmandu" (with a
link for the old spelling), fixes for historical rules in
Switzerland, and changes to America/Resolute and Cuba for the past
few years (but not present).
- If DateTime::TimeZone::Local could not load its OS-specific subclass
because of a missing dependency, it would silently fall back on
loading the Unix subclass, rather than throwing an error. RT #41305.
- Fixed a bug where the short names for some time zones were
wrong. This mostly (exclusively?) manifested in time zone rules for
the first half of the 20th century or so.
DateTimeX::Easy makes DateTime object creation quick and easy. It
uses a variety of DateTime::Format packages to do the bulk of the
parsing, with some custom tweaks to smooth out the rough edges
(mainly concerning timezone detection and selection).
DateTime::Format::DateManip is a class that knows how to convert
between Date::Manip dates and durations and DateTime and
DateTime::Duration objects. Recurrences are note yet supported.
If you have ever had to use a program that made you type in the
date a certain way and thought "Why can't the computer just figure
out what date I wanted?", this module is for you.
DateTime::Format::Flexible attempts to take any string you give it
and parse it into a DateTime object.
The test file tests 2500+ variations of date/time strings. If you
can think of any that I do not cover, please let me know.
This package consists of a C library and a Perl module (which uses
the C library, internally) for all kinds of date calculations based
on the Gregorian calendar (the one used in all western countries
today), thereby complying with all relevant norms and standards:
ISO/R 2015-1971, DIN 1355 and, to some extent, ISO 8601 (where
applicable).
(See also http://www.engelschall.com/u/sb/download/Date-Calc/DIN1355/
for a scan of part of the "DIN 1355" document (in German)).
The module of course handles year numbers of 2000 and above correctly
("Year 2000" or "Y2K" compliance) -- actually all year numbers from
1 to the largest positive integer representable on your system
(which is at least 32767) can be dealt with.
This package contains the following perl5 modules:
Time::CTime.pm
ctime, strftime, and asctime
Time::JulianDay.pm
Julian Day conversions
Time::ParseDate.pm
Reverses strftime and also understands relative times
Time::Timezone.pm
Time::DaysInMonth.pm

Upstream changes:
1.1901 2008-11-01
- Test fixes only. The tests planned the wrong number of tests on
32-bit platforms, causing failures.
1.19 2008-11-01
- The calculation of the maximum integer size was using
$Config{intsize} when it should use $Config{ivsize}. Apparently on a
64-bit platform intsize can be 4 when ivsize is 8. Based on a patch
from Jan Dubois.
Upstream changes:
0.8301 2008-11-07
- Test fixes only. The 19local-win32 tried to skip tests when they're
run without write access to the registry, but this was done in a
very broken way.
0.83 2008-10-27
- This release is based on version 2008h of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Argentina.
- Updated the docs on how the local time zone is determined for
various platforms.
0.82 2008-10-13
- This release is based on version 2008h of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Mauritius and Syria.
0.81 2008-10-06
- This release is based on version 2008g of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Brazil.
0.80 2008-09-15
- This release is based on version 2008f of the Olson database. The
major changes in this release are for Mauritius, Morocco, Pakistan,
Argentina, and Brazil.
0.7904 2008-08-30
- Added three more Windows time zone names to the Windows -> Olson
mapping. This should fix test failures on up-to-date Windows
boxes. Patch by David Pinkowitz. RT #38735.
0.7903 2008-08-22
- The DateTime::TimeZone->names_in_country() method was broken when
called as a method. Reported by Lars Eggert. RT #38665.
0.7902 2008-08-18
- Fixed a lingering reference to DT::TimeZoneCatalog, which broke
t/15catalog.t on fresh installs.
0.7901 2008-08-18
- This distro now provides the CET, EET, MET, and WET zones. These are
provided by the Olson database for backwards compatibility. It's
probably a bad idea to use them, but it's best if this package
matches what a Unix system provides.
- Moved the catalog to DateTime::TimeZone::Catalog, which now has some
POD that lists all the available zones.
* Version 3.1 Patch 6 - 2008-11-16
- MAJOR ENHANCEMENT: A new OMITFUNC clause gives you additional
control and flexibility over "omitted days" calculations. This is
useful when holidays influence the timing of events several days
later. See "COMPUTED LOCAL OMITS" in the man page.
- ENHANCEMENT: The new evaltrig() built-in function lets you evaluate triggers
from within an expression.
- ENHANCEMENT: The new weekno() built-in function returns the ISO 8601
week number of a date.
- ENHANCEMENT: The "WEEK" special lets you annotate calendar output with the
week number. The TkRemind, rem2ps and rem2html back-ends support WEEK.
- MINOR ENHANCEMENT: You can control whether timed reminders come before or
after non-timed reminders with the "-g" flag.
- BUG FIX: TkRemind did not work correctly if ~/.reminders was a directory.
- BUG FIX: TkRemind incorrectly invoked Remind with the "-a" flag when
showing today's reminders.
- BUG FIX: In certain cases, a trigger containing a day, month and
weekday would fail if it needed to cross a year boundary. This has
been fixed.
Changes since 4.4.2:
x11/xfce4-panel:
* Quite a bit code changed in the dnd code. Mostly to fix a segfault
in FreeBSD-amd64, but more problems were discovered and a lot of
code was simplified.
* Don't respond the uri drags, we don't use it and it only causes
problems like hiding the panel when a file was dragged over the
panel (Bug #3815).
* Fix crash with xrandr 1.2 (Bug #3620)
x11/xfce4-desktop:
* Make menu panel plugin honor CustomizeDesktopMenu kiosk setting
(Bug #1026).
* Fix incorrect initial desktop font size when setting custom font
size if a custom font was never set before (Bug #3957).
wm/xfce4-wm:
* Fix automaximize on move
* Remove trailing \0 in UTF-8 strings, that causes libwnck to
rightfully complain that NET_WM_NAME contains invalid UTF-8
* Exit on SelectionClear event so that xfwm4 exits even with WM who
do not send a ClientMessage event such as Openbox (Bug #2374)
* Backport overlay and compositor support from trunk (Bug #3849)
* Filter out grab/ungrab events so we don't end up redrawing the
frame twice
* Set monitor when positionning menu (Bug #4162)

Upstream changes:
0.42 2008-09-12
- Based on CLDR 1.6.1, but this has no changes in the data we use. I
just used 1.6.1 so people wouldn't ask me why I don't use 1.6.1 ;)
- In the switch to CLDR (back in 0.30), I accidentally dropped a
number of hard-coded aliases, notably for 'C'. These aliases have
been restored. Reported by Adam Kennedy. RT #39208.
- Generation of aliases based on the 3-letter ISO code for countries
is now based on the most recent version of ISO639.
Pkgsrc changes:
o Adjust dependencies to suit new dependencies
Upstream changes:
0.4501 2008-11-25
- The epoch() method got broken in the recent shuffling between
Time::Local and Time::y2038. Unfortunately, the tests to catch this
also got lost in the shuffle. Reported by Avianna Chao.
0.45 2008-11-11
- Reverted the changes to use Time::y2038, on the recommendation of
Michael Schwern (the author of said module), because it is not yet
stable. This may come back in a future release.
0.4401 2008-11-03
- In order to handle epochs > 2**32 properly on a 32-bit machine, we
also need to import gmtime from Time::y2038. This changes fixes a
whole bunch of test failures seen with 0.44.
0.44 2008-11-01
- XS-capable DateTime.pm now uses Time::y2038 instead of
Time::Local. This lets it handle epochs up to 142 million years
before and after the Unix epoch.
- Fixed a compiler warning with Perl 5.10.0.
- Fixed docs for year_with_era, which had AD and BC
backwards. Reported by Vynce Montgomery. RT #39923.
- The format_cldr() method did not format the "yy" format properly
when the year ended in "0X". Reported by Wilson Santos. RT #40555.
0.4305 2008-10-03
- The pure Perl version of this module did not know about the end of
2008 leap second. Reported by James T Monty.
