Re: [ANNOUNCEMENT] Updated: perl-5.10.0-1 [EXPERIMENTAL]
According to Reini Urban on 12/27/2007 10:31 AM: | A diff of the modules from 5.8 to 5.10 is below. | Module::Build is definitely now in CORE. So I should be prepared to mark perl-module-build as an obsolete package once perl is no longer experimental? Obsolete it only when the perl 5.8 prev version will be deleted. When perl-5.10 will go curr, then an empty perl-module-build or even the same tar.gz will do. I believe it will be in about two weeks or so. One major performance bug was just found and fixed, which will require a 5.10.0-3 release, and the Win32::GUI::Scintilla crash fix (cygwin only) is also outstanding. Your old 5.8 build does no harm to the 5.10 perl. We do not have vendor_perl/5.8 in the new @INC. -- Reini -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
