The AUR passes the session token as an extra POST parameter to prevent cross-site scripting. cpan2aur needed updating in order to be able to upload source packages to the AUR. * Release 1.22 [2012-06-04 Mon] :BUGFIX: ** Avoid using Cwd::abs_path on non-existant directory. * Release 1.21 [2012-05-31 Thu] ** Developer versions nuked to hell. :BUGFIX: Developer versions on CPAN have a trailing underscore and numeric portion (eg 1.2.3_4). These are a largely misunderstood nuisance which require special logic on the part of perl/CPAN to compare versions. A dev ver drops the trailing number if compared against a non-dev ver string. So 1.2.3_4 == 1.2.3 but 1.2.3_4 < 1.2.3_5. Previously I tried to preserve them but because pacman mercifully has no special logic to compare them with non-developer version strings I decided to just remove them entirely from pkgvers. Long story short... 1.2.3_4 is not equivalent to 1.2.3.4 so why even try to make it so. Reported by Florian Pritz (Bluewind) * Release 1.20 [2012-04-29 Sun] ** Be more careful removing duplicate makedepends/depends. :BUGFIX: The depends list starts off with packages containing the modules in the META.json's build.requires. The build.requires are merged into the makedepends and these are removed from the depends list. This was causing a problem with Params::Validate where perl-module-implementation was showing up only on the makedepends list. Now this should be fixed because the build.requires is a different version than the runtime.requires. We don't remove seemingly duplicate deps that have a differing version string. However, this is just a hackish fix. A better fix would be to only use the META.yml if it is available or else use the pre-requisites CPP provides. Reported by Florian Pritz (Bluewind) ** Use META.json if it is available. Now that META.json is more prevalent we can use it instead of META.yml when it is available. * Release 1.19 [2011-10-25 Tue] ** Detect non-perl XS deps when using non-english locale. :BUGFIX: We scrape pacman's output in order to find package owners of C libraries that we are linking to. Silly me, I only matched english output of pacman. We now force the locale to C when we run pacman behind the scenes. Reported by Franek at https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=128890 * Release 1.18 [2011-08-21 Sun] ** Trivial fix for $CPANPLUS::Dist::Arch::PACKAGER. If the PACKAGER environment variable is set then the package variable $CPANPLUS::Dist::Arch::PACKAGER will now be set to its value, overriding the /etc/makepkg.conf value. ** cpan2aur: Update to match the latest AUR upgrades. Logins are now HTTPS only. I thought I updated this already but I guess that was WWW::AUR instead. Sessions now have lowercase letters instead of uppercase letters. This confused the session key loading mechanism. ** Add sha512sums to PKGBUILD. SHA-512 digests are calculated for the "sources" tarball if the Digest::SHA module is installed. ** Make all warnings fatal. Warnings will now stop the program. ** Fix warning messages for undefined module versions. Warning messages would be printed when a sub-module of a distribution is depended on. Sub-modules are modules inside a distribution which don't match the name of the distribution. These are generally hidden in order to depend only on distributions and not modules. Example warning message (word-wrapped): Use of uninitialized value $depver in numeric eq (==) at /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm line 984. * Release 1.17 [2011-08-03 Wed] ** If at first you don't succeed, try again harder. Okay the last fix didn't really work. Really fix it this time and add a test. * Release 1.16 [2011-08-03 Wed] ** Remove any leading 'v' char in front of versions for perl. Since we parse these on our own we must be diligent of the strange perl habit of prefixing versions with "v". Found when uploading Exporter-Declare to the AUR. * Release 1.15 [2011-07-06 Wed] ** Depend on perl core modules again After getting some coffee in me I realized that it's ok to depend on core perl modules because we only depend on them if the version we need is greater than the bundled version. * Release 1.14 [2011-07-06 Wed] ** Core perl modules no longer depend-able Because the perl package no longer has a provides list for all the core perl modules we cannot depend on any packages for distributions that perl comes with. ** Match perl versions with 0's rounded off the end. :BUGFIX: Like the version string 5.00503 for example. It should convert to 5.5.30. Reported by xbj9000 on the perl-cpanplus-dist-arch AUR page. ** perl-cpanplus-dist-arch moved to [community] Cool! I hope? * Release 1.13 [2011-06-26 Sun] ** Use makepkg's --nocheck option to skip tests Since pacman 3.4 PKGBUILDs can now have a check() function. Inside this bash function, tests are run to make sure the build package is functioning properly. Since most CPAN modules have tests, the test command (make test or ./Build test) are now placed inside check(). Makepkg has a --nocheck option useful for skipping tests which this module now uses instead of commenting out tests. ** Accept dist dirs with "v" version strings :BUGFIX: cpan2aur now anticipates extracted dist. dirs which have a v in their version. ** Use the new version::parse() instead of the obsolete version::qv() Keeping up with the times. ** Better makepkg error handling in cpan2aur :BUGFIX: When makepkg failed before we didn't handle it properly. * Release 1.12 [2011-03-25 Fri] ** Upgrades for pacman/makepkg 3.5 *** SRCPKGDEST environment variable Makepkg uses the 'SRCPKGDEST' environment variable when building a source package. To override where the package will end up, simply set SRCPKGDEST. This also means we don't know where it will end up until create() is called and you specify whether you want a 'bin' or 'src' package in create()'s parameters. set_destdir() still allows you to override where a package will be stored after being built. This method doesn't discriminate between source or binary packages. get_destdir() is now alot stupider and will not try to guess where a package will end up. Instead it just returns what you have given to set_destdir() previously. *** check() PKGBUILD function makepkg allows you to specify a new step when building a package from a PKGBUILD. Automated tests (via make test or Build test) are now run inside the check() bash function in the PKGBUILD. ** PKGBUILD Template Tweaks PKGBUILDs are now more conservative about exporting environment variable everywhere. Even though I never heard of any problems caused by this. Now a subshell wraps any exported env. vars. We also use the check() and package() functions in PKGBUILDs. These changes shouldn't change the user experience any but I thought I'd try them out. Overly anal-retentive users should appreciate it. ** Dependences on Minor Module Versions :BUGFIX: If one distribution depends on a module that is not the main module, the versions of the dependency cannot be cross-referenced. This means there is no way to find which old version of the distribution contains the old module file. We cannot convert module deps to distribution deps in this case. What I have done is discard the version and simply depend on the package representing the CPAN distribution we need. This is not ideal but will work in most cases. The fact that ArchLinux is a rolling release also helps to support the idea that most users have very recent versions of perl modules installed. * Release 1.11 [2011-02-04 Fri] ** New Changelog Format The changelog now uses org-mode. It is much nicer. I rewrote many of the latest entries for the last few versions and renamed ChangeLog to the perl-default Changes. ** Template Changes *** No more || return 1 Since around pacman 3.4, makepkg no longer requires you to use gratutious "|| return 1's". I suppose makepkg uses set -e now, so any errors should make makepkg bail out. Anyways these are now removed from the PKGBUILD template and generated PKGBUILDs. *** Emacs local variables Because I am tired of adding them in manually. You will see them at the end of the PKGBUILD. I forget what the vim equivalent is. ** Perl Version Conversion :BUGFIX: When some modules depend on perl they use the decimal notation for the version string (i.e. 5.006001) whereas ArchLinux uses the dotted-decimal notation for versions (i.e. 5.6.1). Pacman was confused by the decimal notation so we now convert any explicit dependencies on perl into dotted-decimal format. Reported by: Xenoterracide * Release 1.10 [2010-12-10 Fri] ** Cowardly Reverting Regress back to not adding dependencies to packages (distributions) that are included with the version of perl running us. * Release 1.09 [2010-12-02 Thu] ** lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm *** dist_pkgname Fix bug with our own package dependencies. + signs are now allowed in package names (for Text-Tabs+Wraps aka perl-text-tabs+wraps). * Release 1.08 [2010-11-30 Tue] ** lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm *** _extract_makedepends Extract ExtUtils:: modules into makedepends. *** _prepare_cfgdeps Extract 'configure_requires' modules from META.yml into makedepends. *** dist_pkgname Adds Cairo and Gtk2-GConf to the package name overrides. * Release 1.07 [2010-11-23 Tue] ** lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm *** _translate_cpan_deps Return perl-test- packages as 'makedepends' unless we are ourselves a perl-test- package. This updates templates as well. (_translate_cpan_deps): We also no longer filter out perl core module requirements. The perl package now gives us a provides list of included core modules. (set_pkgrel): Adds new mutator. *** _prepare_arch Search for XS files in the CPAN package dir and set the PKGBUILD arch field to 'i686' 'x86_64' if we find we are building an XS module. This changes the 'arch' field for templates. Do not enclose the 'arch' value in quotes! The value of the 'arch' template variable now comes enclosed in single-quotes. *** get_pkgbuild Fix bug where quoted bash special characters were padded with spaces. Remove exclaimation point (!) quoting for bash's sake, this wasn't necessary and looks funny. * Release 1.06 [2010-09-29 Wed] ** Bad libxml name override :BUGFIX: Remove erronous 'XML::LibXML' to 'libxml-perl' name mapping. There is a dist named libxml-perl so it doesn't need a mapping to it. Oops! *Reported by IsaacG* ** Templates Change PKGBUILD template to use the absolute path to the system perl interpreter. ** Yes - stop asking me Add --noconfirm flag to pacman arguments. ** Update official name overrides Update name overrides to match changed ArchLinux perl package names in official repos. ** t/05-custom_template.t :BUGFIX: Fix bug where the packager was hard-coded in our test output. *Reported by IsaacG* * Old Entries 2010-05-28 Justin Davis * RELEASE (1.03) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_find_built_pkg): Fix bug where source packages were not being found after being built. (dist_pkgname): Changed naming rules again. ALWAYS prefix a package name with perl- unless it is "perl". Added an override for Perl-Tidy and Perl-Critic so they will still convert to 'perl-tidy' and 'perl-critic'. We may need more overrides to match Archlinux packages... Fixes a bug with Perl::Version and version both translating to perl-version. Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-05-20 Justin Davis * RELEASE (1.02) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (set_tt_module): Add new method. This can also be a class method. 2010-05-18 Justin Davis * RELEASE (1.01) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_process_template): [Bugfix] When using internal template engine the [%-'s and -%]'s would not be recognized. When I added the -'s I forgot to change the code. Reported by IsaacG 2010-05-11 Justin Davis * RELEASE (1.00): Uploaded to CPAN. * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (dist_pkgname): Changed the mapping of CPAN dist names to package names: - Prefix the package name with 'perl-' even if it ends with '-perl'. - The only time to not prefix the package with 'perl-' is if it already starts with 'perl-'. - Special case: the 'perl' dist name maps to the 'perl' package. 2010-05-10 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm: The PKGBUILD template has been changed. We now more eloquently override environment variables (i.e. PERL_MM_OPT, PERL_MB_OPT) in order to assure their values don't affect our package building. 2010-04-28 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm: Add POST_CHOMP (-%]) tags to PKGBUILD template to remove extra whitespace. 2010-04-17 Justin Davis * script/cpan2aur (update_if_old): Fix bug where we were comparing the module version and not the module's package version. * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm: Fix bug where installing packages from the AUR runs Module::AutoInstall inside the PKGBUILD. Module::AutoInstall installed packages while running _inside_ the PKGBUILD. Maybe all AUR packages created by cpan2aur who used Module::Install were broken! Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-04-13 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): Fix bug where I assumed makepkg creates a .pkg.tar.gz. Nowadays makepkg creates .pkg.tar.xz files (but it may still create .pkg.tar.gz if the user tells it to in /etc/makepkg.conf... right?) 2010-04-11 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (get_pkgbuild): Fix bug where exclaimation marks (!) in pkgdesc are displayed with the leading quoting backslash (\). Turns out quoting exclaimation marks with backslashes doesn't work in bash. We use "..."'!'"..." instead! 2010-04-08 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (get_tt_module): Added new method. 2010-03-22 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_metayml_pkgdesc): Fix bug where the abstract description inside the META.yml was left to its default entry by a lazy module author. This caused the pkgdesc to be: Module abstract (<= 44 characters) goes here Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-03-03 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_prepare_pkgdesc): Fix bug where pkgdesc is blank when the .pm/.pod file is in a non-standard location. We now search more places for the files. Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-02-21 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_shell_expand): Created helper function for reading PKGDEST from /etc/makepkg.conf entries. Fixed bug when PKGDEST in makepkg.conf contains environment variables or tildes that need shell expansion. Reported by Isaac Good (_prepare_pkgdesc): Fix bug where META.yml contains double-quoted text (not-single quotes) in the pkgdesc. These double quotes would not be removed and show up in the pkgdesc. 2010-02-18 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (get_pkgname): Added method. (get_pkgver): Added method. (get_pkgrel): Added method. (set_pkgrel): Added method. (get_pkgvars): Added 'pkgrel' as a new template variable. 2010-02-17 Justin Davis * script/cpan2aur (confirm_overwrite): Fixed bug where the overwrite confirmation prompt answered yes no matter what. Reported by Xenoterracide. 2010-02-14 Justin Davis * 0.17 (RELEASE) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): Added the 'quiet' and 'verbose' dist options. (create): Fixed bug where we chdir to create a package and do not chdir back. Messed up calling programs cwd. 2010-02-03 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): We are now verbose by default so people don't think we are hanging. * script/cpan2aur: Heavily updated cpan2aur. We can now create templates for AUR packages that need customization. Then you only need to generate a package from the template. We can also upload to the AUR easily from the command line. 2010-01-26 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): Dependencies of modules are now installed as implicit packages. (_prepare_pkgdesc): Fixed bug where descriptions were "~". 2010-01-08 Justin Davis * 0.16 (RELEASE) * script/cpan2aur: Now we can also create a source package directory for tweaking the PKGBUILD and then running makepkg. * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (_translate_xs_deps): Fixed bug with detecting XS deps for Module::Build distributions. It never seemed to work right anyways, and would sometimes cause a fatal error. Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-01-07 Justin Davis * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (dist_pkgver): Fixed bug where underscores in developer releases were not preserved as they were supposed to be. Reported by Xenoterracide 2010-01-02 Justin Davis * 0.15 (RELEASE) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): Fixed bug where I broke skiptest handling when creating the PKGBUILD. (create_pkgbuild): Added optional argument for skipping tests in PKGBUILD. (get_pkgbuild): Same as create_pkgbuild. 2009-12-12 Justin Davis * 0.14 (RELEASE) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (get_cpandistdir): Fixed bug caused by distributions having letters in their filenames. The extracted directory did not have the trailing letter. Now we use the distribution directory name previously stored by CPANPLUS. * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (dist_pkgver): Fixed bug with letters in package versions. Letters are removed because makepkg cannot compare versions with letters properly. Underscores are now only allowed at the end of the version; for developer releases. 2009-12-02 Justin Davis * 0.13 (RELEASE) * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (create): Fixed a bug caused when PKGDEST environment variable was used. Fixed a bug when yaourt is trying to run ./Build in a /tmp mounted with the noexec option. Thanks to "xenoterracide" for pointing this out on the AUR; which led me to the even worse PKGDEST bug. * lib/CPANPLUS/Dist/Arch.pm (get_pkgpath): Added new method. * t/02-build.t: Checks for online connectivity and deletes the test package after it is created. * ChangeLog: Switched to the emacs style changelog since... I use emacs. Revision history for CPANPLUS-Dist-Arch 0.12 October 29, 2009 Fixed bugs when searching for XS packages. Fixed a regexp bug when escaping bash characters in pkgdesc. Changed the automatic perl dependency to not have a version. 0.11 June 9, 2009 I added List::MoreUtils in the last release, thought it was a core module, and forgot to add it to the Build.PL. So I just removed use of "uniq" now. 0.10 May 28, 2009 Fixed trivial bug with Maintainer in PKGBUILD having a newline. 0.09 May 27, 2009 Added many package name overrides from the Arch website. Removed use of Readonly, now we only need core modules. Now searches for non-perl dependencies as well! (ie for XS modules) Tweaked PKGBUILD again. 0.08 May 11, 2009 Added a public method interface to the CPANPLUS::Dist::Arch class. Added example script "cpanpkgbuild.pl" and binary script "cpan2aur". Changed PKGBUILD template slightly as suggested by smb. (I accidentally used the Makefile.PL for this version instead of Build.PL! So META.yml got screwed up. I also forgot to update this file.) 0.07 April 12, 2009 Fixed the typo bug in last version. Added a build test so I'll catch this faster. Now searches the main module's .pm and .pod files for the pkgdesc as well, using Pod::Select. Now running as root will work, also useful for nested fakeroot environments... 0.06 April 05, 2009 Added the setupdistarch script to easily enable/disable CPANPLUS packaging. I broke this version with a typo! Luckily no one suspects anything. 0.05 March 23, 2009 Inserted missing /CPAN/ text for the PKGBUILD's srcurl variable, Added tests for _translate_name & _translate_version. 0.04 March 22, 2009 Fixed CPAN version numbers which don't conform to Archlinux standards. Stopped using the version module for prefixing everything with v, why!! Fixed typos, some inefficient code, etc... 0.03 March 21, 2009 Included missing file Arch.pod in MANIFEST. Fixed some typos in README and Arch.pod. 0.02 March 21, 2009 Fixed some bugs, separated docs to pod file. 0.01 March 20, 2009 First version, uploaded to CPAN.
