Its time for another MakeMaker alpha! This one is mostly VMS fixes though I also discovered a conflict with Module::Install and undid an accidental change that broken Archive::Zip. As far as I know all outstanding issues are resolved, so this is release candidate... oh let's call it 4.
http://www.pobox.com/~schwern/src/ExtUtils-MakeMaker-6.25_08.tar.gz or http://svn.schwern.org/svn/CPAN/ExtUtils-MakeMaker Nick says code freeze for 5.8.7 is scheduled for end of Feburary. I'd like to get 6.26 out before then. 6.25_08 Tue Feb 8 09:04:36 EST 2005 - Fixing xsubpp on VMS. Had a foo/bar path in it. - Turning XSUBPP into a runable command by the addition of PERLRUN made it unusable as a dependency. Added XSUBPPRUN for that and left XSUBPP alone. - Removed DESTDIR from PASTHRU as install is not recursive and it can make commands too long on VMS. - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. Using .exists files everywhere. - Restore missing *.Opt clean on VMS. - Fix .exists files accidentally getting caught in static builds. - Older versions of MMS cannot handle directory targets at all. - Add Interix support ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) - distsign target changed to distsignature to avoid clash with Module::Install 6.25_07 Fri Dec 31 03:47:20 EST 2004 - perllocal on VMS was inserting executables twice. - No longer using $(IGNORE) macro. Turns out MMS/K was not honoring it. Using "-$(NOECHO) command" which seems to make everybody happy. - Executables with no extension weren't getting installed on VMS due to a bug in rename(). Broken sometime in this series of alphas.
