Changes for version 0.72

  • exit(0) on requires_external_bin to make it a real NA
  • Change docs to recommend the use of test_requires instead of build_requires. They do the same thing now, but this may change in the future and in that case better people use test_requires now as it is a more accurate description of intent. Also, it reads clearer. (ADAMK)
  • Removed the command prompt_script, it did some unusual magic and it easy enough to replace with 2 lines of code in the Makefile.PL of anyone using it anyway (ADAMK)
  • Merged the remaining install_script into Metadata.pm (ADAMK)
  • Adding documentation about the configure_requires command (ADAMK)
  • Automatically add any install_share directory to no_index (ADAMK)
  • Check scripts passed to install_script actually exist (ADAMK)
  • Allow install_script('foo') to be shorthand for install_script('script/foo') if no root 'foo' file exists. This should allow for yet more typing reduction (ADAMK)
  • For even more typing reduction, "use inc::Module::Install" now acts as an implicit "use strict", so you don't need to use strict in Makefile.PL (ADAMK)
  • Fixed a regex bug in name_from (and thus all_from) (ADAMK)
