0.004_03 Sep 09, 2014

0.004_02 Sep 04, 2014
- fixed MSWin32 specific bug introduced in 0.004_01 (plicease gh#59)
- use pure perl PkgConfig as an alternative to pkg-config if the latter
is not provided by operating system (plicease gh#61)

0.004_01 Sep 04, 2014
- Libraries in the share directory are preferred over the system library
if that is what was used during install of the Alien module (plicease++ gh#22)
- Better handling of paths on Windows (zmughal++ gh#41)
- Fix test failure when pkg-config is not available (mohawk2++ gh#44)
- Support for autotools on Windows (MSWin32, but not cygwin) (plicease++ gh#46)
- Alien::MSYS will be injected as a build_requires on Windows if autotools is detected
- "%c" can now be used as a platform independent way of running autotool based
"configure" script
- The new default for build uses "%c" instead of "%pconfigure"
- Added property alien_isolate_dynamic which allows an Alien author to
avoid using dynamic libraries when building XS modules (plicease gh#51)
- Added dynamic_libs which returns a list of dynamic libraries (.dll, .so or
.dylib depending on platform) which can be used for FFI modules (see FFI::Raw)
(plicease gh#51)
- Added support for LWP as an alternative to HTTP::Tiny (preaction++ gh#24)
- Added support for content-disposition HTTP header to determine correct filename
and determine format from that (rsimoes++ gh#27)
- By default run autotools style configure scripts with --with-pic and add
alien_autoconf_with_pic property to allow disabling that (plicease gh#47)
