Jarkko, your patch is in the works. Craig & Thomas, sorry, no 8 level fix this release. I want to leave basic.t alone for a bit and work on PREFIX. Tested on: Linux 5.6.0, 5.6.1, 5.7.3 Tru64 5.6.0 OpenVMS 5.6.1 with MMS Cygwin 5.6.1 ActivePerl/Win95 5.6.1 build 631 with nmake 5.55_01 Thu Apr 4 23:58:06 EST 2002 [[ API Changes ]] * Long deprecated INST_EXE completely removed. - Removing TEST_LIBS constant (never seen in a stable MM anyway) - Added $default argument to prefixify() for safer prefixification. [[ Bug Fixes ]] - $mm->{PERM_*} were not being set - fixin() redundantly chmod'ing scripts. Let the Makefile do that. - The above means MM_Unix will now compile cleanly under strict * init_dirscan's search for Makefile.PL's will no longer look inside a distdir. * Fixed running tests when there are t/'s in subdirs. - MM_DOS inheriting from MM_Unix instead of MM_Win32. DJGPP appears to be unix-like (bleadperl@15650) - Escaping constants with # in them so they're not confused as make comments (bleadperl) * ExtUtils::MM_Win95 didn't return a true value - Fixing disttest when perl is a relative path. * Fixed disttest & tests in subdirs on Win95 - Fixed recursive Makefile.PL scan on VMS so it skips the distdir - Fixed a bug when an alternative MAKEFILE is specified and you're using something other than a Makefile.PL (RT 444) - Quieting uninit warning when there are no tests. [[ Doc Fixes ]] - Documented INSTALLMAN*DIR == 'none' feature. [[ Test Fixes ]] - Paul Green's which_perl patch to build a proper Perl on systems that use command extensions. - basic.t's Makefile.PL PREFIX call wasn't properly quoted for VMS (Craig Berry) - little initialization glitch in MM_Win32.t [[ Internals ]] - INST_* constants moved to init_INST - INSTALL* constants moved to inst_INSTALL * Internal warning supression removed. - Temporarily turning off SelfLoader in MM_Unix so warnings have the right line numbers. -- Michael G.
