I just merged the sort-v-strings branch with master and published the latest release of efs-perl to git.
This version will be a pre-requisite for the next update to efs-deploy (which merges and eliminates efs-cpan, as well), so PLEASE if you have ANY intention of ever upgrading to the latest efsdeploy, you need to make upgrading efs-perl a higher priority. The important changes in this release are: [1] Removed the perl-core sudirectory, as perl5/core is now built entirely from efsdeploy rules [2] Removed the extra EFS-Perl subdirectory [3] versioncmp now checks the pre-release metadata for the optional sortorder, rather than assuming everything can be sorted with version objects [4] This version supports the new format for metadata.conf (but will still parse the old one of course) Regarding [4], I've reworked the format of the metadata.conf files, generated by the newer version of efsdeploy.conf. The ONLY code I am aware of that parses metadata.conf is EFS::Perl::Depends, and this is why you MUST upgrade EPD *before* you attempt to install and use the next major update to efsdeploy. The most critical change is [3]. Now that the metadata.conf files can specify the sortorder, we have a manageable way to deal with things like HTML-Template (upgraded from 2.9 to 2.10, but 2.9 > 2.1). _______________________________________________ EFS-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mailman.openefs.org/mailman/listinfo/efs-dev
