Revision history for Alien-Build 2.84 2024-10-28 18:51:39 -0600 - Added is_system_install and is_share_install methods to Alien::Build (gh#418, gh#420, shawnlaffan++) - Some comment and documentation spelling fixes (gh#250) 2.83 2024-06-05 15:06:15 -0600 - Production release identical to 2.82_01 2.82_01 2024-05-25 01:49:23 -0600 - CPU detection with archname arm64- prefix (gh#411, gh#412) 2.81_01 2023-06-24 09:54:28 -0600 - Added support for xz compression with Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::ArchiveTar (gh#404) - Extract negotiator (Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::Negotiate) now prefers the Extract::ArchiveTar plugin for tar.xz files. On Windows Extract::ArchiveTar is now always used for tar.xz files because the BSD tar that comes with Windows can hang on tar.xz if xz is in the PATH (gh#403, gh#404) 2.80 2023-05-11 16:31:46 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#399, gh#400, gh#401, gh#402) - Do not generate .../Install/Files.pm if one is provided by the Alien (gh#393, gh#397) 2.79 2023-05-05 15:08:46 -0600 - Updated non-binding support for Perls to match the policy of the Perl toolchain (Perls older than 10 years old are unsupported, with a one-time exception of Perl 5.16). The intent is not to suddenly drop support for older Perls, but the Alien-Build team may take advantage of features in supported Perls that will effectively remove compatability with unsupported Perls. 2.78 2023-03-07 11:49:27 -0700 - Test fix to handle Perls with space in the path (gh#391, mohawk++) 2.77 2023-01-20 14:59:14 +1100 - Documentation improvements (gh#389, #gh#390) - Additional noisy diagnostic when trying to use the regular download negotiator plugin with a GitHub releases page (gh#388, gh#390) 2.76 2022-12-28 18:30:39 -0700 - Fix inline_auto_include so that it gives priority to the .runtime.inline_auto_include property 2.75 2022-12-21 21:03:27 -0700 - The Download::Negotiate plugin will no longer pick the Fetch::CurlCommand plugin (unless bootstrap_ssl option is chosen), because it relies on the -J option which is unfortunately not reliable. When a more reliable method can be used by Fetch::CurlCommand we will likely go back to preferring it (gh#384, gh#385) 2.74 2022-11-27 08:26:06 -0700 - Patches to Test::Alien to make it safe for C99 (gh#383, Florian Weimer++) 2.73 2022-11-20 07:23:46 -0700 - Fix Extract::ArchiveZip test when ALIEN_DOWNLOAD_RULE set to digest_or_encrypt (gh#382) 2.72 2022-10-26 06:28:00 -0600 - Improved diagnostic when all links are excluded by the filter stage (gh#380) 2.71 2022-10-04 11:18:14 -0600 - Added Alien::Build::Plugin::Extract::File (gh#375) 2.70 2022-09-23 06:27:39 -0600 - Production release identical to 2.69_01 2.69_01 2022-09-20 18:00:17 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#370) - Added meta.platform.cpu.count and meta.platform.cpu.arch.name properties (gh#371 zmughal++) 2.68 2022-09-05 09:05:18 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#367) - alien_diag from Test::Alien::Diag now can optionaly take a hash reference as its last argument (gh#365, gh#366) - alien_diag supports two new options properties and list_properties (gh#365, gh#366) - Document that alien_diag may take more than one alien as an argument (this has always been the case, but never documented (gh#366) 2.67 2022-09-03 17:07:40 -0600 - Test::Alien::Diag should now handle undef fields more gracefully (gh#363, gh#364) 2.66 2022-09-01 13:29:15 -0600 - Validate SSL certificates for Fetch::HTTPTiny plugin if ALIEN_DOWNLOAD_RULE is one of encrypt, digest_or_encrypt or digest_and_encrypt (gh#362) 2.65 2022-08-30 11:17:41 -0600 - Fix POD name for Alien::Build::Manual::Security (gh#360) 2.64 2022-08-30 10:09:42 -0600 - Production release identical to 2.63.01 - !!! Notice of Change of Behavior !!! In the near future, AB will require by default one of: 1. Secure https connection 2. Bundled pacakge (ie file:// URL) 3.

More details can be found in the Alien::Build::Manual::Security POD !!! Notice of Change of Behavior !!! 2.63_01 2022-08-30 00:44:54 -0600 - New documentation Alien::Build::Manual::Security (gh#357) - Compute $build->donwload_rule as soon as possible (gh#190, gh#358) - ALIEN_DOWNLOAD_RULE=default is now a legal value. It is currently the same as 'warn' but will probably become 'digest_or_encrypt' in the future (gh#356) - Added notice in change of behavior (gh#190, gh#359) 2.62_01 2022-08-29 15:03:53 -0600 - Fixed bug introduced in 2.60_01 where file URLs were not considered safe (gh#351, gh#355) 2.61_01 2022-08-28 15:49:06 -0600 - Added preload_plugin and postload_plugin to Alien::Build::rc (gh#348, gh#349) 2.60_01 2022-08-28 10:37:01 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#333, gh#334, gh#342, gh#343, gh#344) - Fixed a number of broken links in POD (gh#344) - Added download_detail install property (gh#190, gh#344) - Added download_rule method (gh#190, gh#344) - The fetch hook and other plugins that use the same file hash can and now should include a protocol field (gh#190, gh#344) 2.59 2022-08-16 09:38:14 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#337, gh#341) - Do not allow downgrading from SSL if start_url is https. This is done by filtering non-SSL URLs from the candidate listif the start_url uses https (gh#190, gh#339) 2.58_01 2022-08-15 12:55:07 -0600 - Fix bug where properties could not be interpolated in environment variables if meta.env_interpolate is on (gh#333) - Can now pass an Alien::Build instance into Alien::Build::Interpolator's interpolate method to use meta, install, runtime, etc. prroperites in the template (gh#312, gh#333) 2.57_01 2022-08-15 11:09:52 -0600 - Added experimental plugin Digest::SHA and Digest::SHAPP for checking signatures (gh#332) - Added experimental check_digest method on Alien::Build (gh#332) - Added experimental digest keyword for alienfile (gh#332) - Removed long deprecated subplugin method from Alien::Build::Plugin (gh#331) 2.56 2022-08-13 15:33:18 -0600 - Production release identical to 2.55.01 2.55_01 2022-08-13 15:28:00 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#313, gh#330) 2.54_01 2022-08-13 11:29:15 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#48, gh#313, gh#329) 2.53 2022-08-12 14:02:31 -0600 - Documentation improvements (gh#241, gh#254, gh#283, gh#298, gh#312, gh#327) - Added .runtime.inline_auto_include property (gh#226, gh#328) - xs_ok in Test::Alien will now keep temporary generated files on failure by default. You can override this behavior using TEST_ALIEN_ALWAYS_KEEP (gh#315, gh#326) - Added TEST_ALIEN_ALIENS_MISSING environment variable to remove warning in Test::Alien when you use some tools without first calling alien_ok (gh#326) 2.52 2022-08-11 15:18:46 -0600 - Improved documentation (gh#317, gh#318) - Fixed bug for run_ok in Test::Alien where passing a command in scalar context would not work for commands with arguments (gh#320) - Added interpolate_run_ok and plugin_ok to Test::Alien (gh#319, gh#321, gh#322) - Better support for Alien::MSYS + Test::Alien (gh#323) - Better handle it when flags are undef by not passing into Text::ParseWords::shellwords(gh#314, gh#324) 2.51 2022-08-03 09:57:08 -0600 - Remove use of duplicate lddlfalgs in Test::Alien which could cause failures on AIX (gh#217, gh#316) 2.50 2022-06-23 11:53:00 -0500 - Documentation updates (gh#308, gh#310) 2.49 2022-06-23 11:19:08 -0500 - Fix tests to pass on systems that do not have a compiler (gh#309) 2.48 2022-03-13 11:20:19 -0600 - Added atleast_version to Probe::CommandLine and Probe::CBuilder plugins (gh#299, gh#300, shawnlaffan++) - Added Alien::Util module (gh#301) 2.47 2022-03-07 07:03:52 -0700 - Fixed bug where Probe::CBuilder plugin could report the wrong diagnostic when throwing an exception (gh#296, gh#297, shawnlaffan++) 2.46 2021-11-30 15:17:58 -0700 - Fix bug where the Build::Copy plugin could fail when spaces are in the target path (gh#290, gh#292 kiwiroy++) 2.45 2021-10-28 04:55:28 -0600 - On macOS / OS X the Build::Copy plugin now uses cp -pPR instead of cp -aR; on modern macOS this does the same thing, on very old versions of OS X the -a option is not recognized (gh#288) 2.44 2021-10-20 17:51:21 -0600 - Fix bug in Alien::Build::Log::Abbreviate (gh#287 kiwiroy++) 2.43_01 2021-09-30 10:10:07 -0600 - Fix test for Decode::DirListingFtpCopy which was incorrectly testing Decode::DirListing (gh#285, gh#286) 2.42 2021-09-29 09:54:26 -0600 - Improved documentation relating to the Alien::Base alt methods and the PkgConfig plugins use of pkg_name property (gh#234, gh#284) 2.41 2021-06-21 22:50:57 -0600 - Documentation fixes (gh#266, gh#267) - Use parent instead of base in code and documentation (gh#268) 2.40 2021-05-13 06:44:37 -0600 - Test::Alien tests will issue a diagnostic if you call them without alien_ok which is probably a mistake (gh#262, gh#263) 2.39_01 2021-05-12 04:14:06 -0600 - Add support for HTTP request headers on all appropriate core fetch plugins (gh#256, gh#259) - The fetch method on Alien::Build now has a http_headers option (gh#256, gh#259) - Fix bug where symlinks to directories were incorrectly being skipped (gh#255, gh#260) 2.38 2021-01-11 14:35:54 -0700 - Fixed a bug the can cause an array dereference error in pkg-config command line plugin on MSYS2 / MinGW environment (gh#243) - Changed the auto-generated module name for Test::Alien, in a way that works around a probable bug / issue with ExtUtils::CBuilder (gh#243) 2.37 2020-11-02 09:09:13 -0700 - Tests that rely on its behavior unset ALIEN_BUILD_PKG_CONFIG (gh#239) 2.36_01 2020-10-31 03:33:21 -0600 - Fixed a bug where Probe and PkgConfig plugins could provide compiler / linker flags when the PkgConfig probe fails, but another probe succeed.
