Revision history for Vanilla Perl
Build 7:
- Added mingw32-make binary to mingw
- Installs CPAN-1.87_55 for better handling of missing command line
programs and no unnecessary prompting for Module::Signature
Build 6: Sun Jul 9 16:59:55 EDT 2006
- switched to Perl::Dist::Builder as the generator and Module::Install
for Makefile.PL
- backported .iss changes from Strawberry Alpha 1; added .iss build
script to bin/
- perl path no longer prepended
- added Time::Local and Archive::Tar to eliminate need for binary unzip
- tweaked preloaded CPAN\Config.pm
- minor doc cleanup
Build 5: Wed Jul 5 20:28:00 EST 2006
- updated META.yml no_index (hopefully) prevent spurious indexing by
CPAN.pm
- pulled mock Module::Signature from the distribution (not being used
in Vanilla -- wait for Strawberry instead)
- added a MANIFEST.SKIP file
Build 4: Wed Jul 5 12:37:22 EST 2006
- Build now generated programmatically from scripts released in
Perl::Dist::Vanilla
- Added Win32API::File, Compress::Zlib, IO::Zlib, Archive::Tar and
Net::FTP to satisfy CPAN dependencies without needed external binaries
- Removed UnxUtils binaries (no longer necessary)
- Added latest IO for IO::Socket fixes
- Removed libwin32 (except for Win32API::File as described above) to get
back to a minimial set of modules. (libwin32 can be cleanly installed
directly from CPAN now)
- Removed additional "tools" directory that had libwin32 dependencies;
Description of path changes moved to README
- Automatically sets PATH, LIB, and INCLUDE environment variables
during installation; Path to perl is prepended to avoid any other
perl executables bundled in the path (e.g. windows SVK)
- Moved dmake binaries into their own directory
- Relocated license files; included missing MinGW win32api license
- Updated Vanilla Perl documentation, license and README
- No longer sets FTP_PASSIVE environment variable -- sets this instead
in the libnet default configuration file
- Removed restriction on installing for Windows 95, 98, etc. as some
developers have requested the ability to test on these platforms.
Minimum version restrictions may/should be added to other, end-user-
oriented releases like Strawberry Perl
Build 3:
- executable installer release on SourceForge
Build 2:
- source release on SourceForge
Build 1:
- first release for the original "Vertical Metre of Beer" challenge
