- Updating package for p5 module Number::Format from 1.70 to 1.72a
- Setting license to gnu-gpl-v2
Upstream changes:
Changes for version 1.72 (May 5, 2009)
------------------------
- Use Makefile.PL based on suggestion in RT 38020
- Add 'use strict' & 'use warnings'
- Add MAX_INT constant for detecting overflows
- Add helper sub _get_multipliers for getting kilo/mega/giga mult values
- Add test in round() for overflow from large of a precision value (RT 40126)
- Add .5 + 1e-14 to rounded value instead of .5000001 (RT 20298)
- Fix undef $pic_prefix (RT 43029)
- Add support for giga and base option in unformat_number (RT 40455)
- Fix Russian locale issues, esp. in unformat_number (RT 40859)
- Remove variables from error messages (XSS risk) and standardize errors
- Remove requirement that decimal_point & thousands_sep be 1 char (for ru_RU)
- Add Russian and unformat_number tests in locale.t
- Add compare_numbers to test with an allowable error of 1e-10 in round.t
Changes for version 1.71 (May 3, 2009)
------------------------
- Changes to tests t/format_price.t, t/locale.t, and t/round.t to
fix cpan tester errors
- No change to Format.pm itself
This despite some self-tests failing, but that's probably due
to deficiencies in the host system's locale implementation
(NetBSD/i386 4.0).
Pkgsrc changes:
o Remove workarounds for 1.61a version
Upstream changes (could not find newer changes):
Changes for version 1.63 (Feb 10, 2009)
------------------------
- Minor tweak to format_bytes test for German locales
Changes for version 1.62 (Feb 9, 2009)
------------------------
- Change format_bytes to fully specify all formatting options, not
rely on locale at all as it was causing too many CPAN tester errors.
Pkgsrc changes:
o Add some cludges to tell pkgsrc this is really version 1.61, not 1.61a
(the module version is 1.61)
Upstream changes:
Changes for version 1.61 (Dec 29, 2008)
------------------------
- Fix bugs in locale operations for format_price (thanks Moritz Onken)
- Fix documentation in format_bytes (rt # 42036)
- Enable warning when format_bytes called with numeric precision not hash
Pkgsrc changes:
o Use dist/ on search.cpan.org instead of personal page
Upstream changes:
Changes for version 1.60 (Jul 2, 2008)
------------------------
- Rewrite new() and format_price() to use mon_* POSIX Locale values
- Add all missing POSIX Locale variables
(Thanks to Kevin Ryde for help identifying the problem)
And change HOMEPAGE to fixed URL.
Changes for version 1.52 (Sep 21, 2006)
------------------------
- Patch to t/format_price.t supplied by jonasbn addressing failling
tests in 1.51, tests 2-6, the regex formatting the currency code did
not take 0 occurrences of white space into account

(The same issue/patch was also reported by Cosimo Streppone, Randy
W. Sims, J. R. Taisto)
Changes for version 1.51 (Apr 26, 2006)
------------------------
- Patch to t/format_price.t supplied by Cosimo Streppone to allow it
to work with non-US locales
Changes for version 1.5 (Feb 14, 2005)
------------------------
- Require Perl 5.8 - was 5.003 before
- Require POSIX.pm - was optional before
- If C<THOUSANDS_SEP> is set to the empty string, format_number will
not insert any separators.
- Replace "use vars" with "our"
- Support scientific notation - skip formatting
- Change format_bytes to support options (precision, unit, and base)
instead of precision number
