Changes for version 6.000 - 2016-04-23 (TRIAL RELEASE)
- THIS RELEASE MIGHT BREAK YOUR BUILD
- Path::Class has been excised in favor of Path::Tiny, exposed as Dist::Zilla::Path; it will still respond to ->subdir and ->file, but only until Dist::Zilla v7 -- fix your plugins by then!
- The --verbose switch to dzil is now strictly on/off. To set verbosity on a per-plugin basis, use the -V switch. Unfortunately, per-plugin verbosity seems to have been broken for some time, anyway.
- The plugins [Prereq] and [AutoPrereq] and [BumpVersion] have been removed. These were long deprecated. (Don't confuse Prereq, for example, with the plural Prereqs, which is the correct plugin.)
- [PkgVersion] now supports a use_package argument which will put the version in the package statement. (Remember that this syntax was introduced in perl v5.12.0.)
