Changes for version 0.20_01 - 2003-09-08

  • When signing distributions with Module::Signature, we now automatically add the SIGNATURE file to the MANIFEST, avoiding an unpleasant chicken/egg problem for the module author.
    • unpleasantness spotted by sungo
  • In Module::Build::Compat, added support for the 'verbose' parameter to Makefile.PL [spotted by Soren Andersen, fixed by Michael Schwern]
  • The Module::Build distribution now has a cryptographic 'SIGNATURE' file created by Module::Signature.
  • Added proper documentation for the subclass() method. [spotted by Jonathan Steinert]
  • Worked around a Config.pm bug in Red Hat 9 which prevented man pages from being installed in the correct places. [spotted by Ville Skytta]
  • Fixed a Module::Build::Compat bug in which setting INSTALLDIRS caused a crash. [spotted by Ilya Martynov]
