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. Cryptographic signature

  - Add alien_clean target for Alien::Build::MM (gh#118, gh#119)

1.69      2019-04-27 10:59:10 -0400

    Related to https://github.com/Perl5-FFI/FFI-CheckLib/issues/13

1.68      2019-04-23 04:57:49 -0400
  - Add decoder property to Download::Negotiate plugin (gh#115, gh#116)

1.67      2019-04-22 07:55:59 -0400
  - Production release identical to 1.66_01

1.66_01   2019-04-21 13:46:14 -0400
  - Fix to Fetch::CurlCommand plugin.  It's handling of URLs with trailing slash (/)
    wasn't quite right.  (gh#112, gh#113)

1.65      2019-04-11 09:15:37 -0400
  - Further improvements with ExtUtils::Depends compatability (gh#107, gh#109).
  - Improved documentation (gh#106).
  - Updated spec for ALIEN_INSTALL_TYPE.  When set, Alien consumers that
    require an opt-in for using an Alien may use the fact that this environment
    variable is set as an opt-in (gh#104, gh#106).

1.64_01   2019-04-10 13:06:45 -0400
  - Improved compatability with ExtUtils::Depends (gh#107, gh#108).

1.63      2019-04-08 17:19:03 -0400
  - Documentation improvements
  - Fixed bug in Test::Alien::Build alienfile_skip_if_missing_prereqs
    where subtest / test was always skipped regardless of requirements.
    It now (correctly) only skips if there are missing requirements.

1.62      2019-03-27 11:34:00 -0400
  - Production release identical to 1.61_01

1.61_01   2019-03-25 15:35:06 -0400
  - Add hook property `version` for probe hook (gh#99, gh#100).
  - Improvements for Fetch CurlCommand plugin (gh#101).

1.60      2019-03-01 03:16:23 -0500
  - Documentation improvemens.  (gh#50, gh#84).

1.59_01   2019-02-27 21:40:24 -0500
  - Fix test fail for download negotiation plugin introduced in 1.58_01
    which was expressed on systems without curl installed.

1.58_01   2019-02-27 12:50:20 -0500
  - Prefer Fetch::CurlCommand over Fetch::HTTPTiny for https when:
     * Net::SSLeay and IO::Socket::SSL are not installed
     * AND curl is installed
     * AND curl supports https
    This makes AB more reliable on platforms like OS X when openssl
    is broken without a third party package system like homebrew,
    and on older Perls like 5.8.x where Net::SSLeay frequently does
    not install or pass tests.
    The existing behavior of prefer Fetch::HTTPTiny when:
     * Net::SSLeay and IO::Socket::SSL are already installed
     * OR the URL is http
     * OR curl is not already installed
    is still in effect. (gh#93, gh#94)

1.57_01   2019-02-26 08:52:34 -0500
  - Test unzip command before blindly using it (tests were already
    being made for tarballs) (gh#90)

1.56_01   2019-02-24 14:09:23 -0500
  - Prefer Alien::unzip over Archive::Zip.  The latter turns out to be broken
    on one platform or another for much of the time.  (gh#74, gh#89).

1.55      2019-02-24 11:35:29 -0500
  - Production release identical to 1.54_01

1.54_01   2019-02-21 15:49:28 -0500
  - Add atleast_version, exact_version, max_version and version_cmp methods
    to Alien::Base (leonerd++ gh#75, gh#77)

1.53_01   2019-02-21 11:35:47 -0500
  - Prefer PkgConfig::PP on MSWin32 where it is more reliable. (gh#82, gh#85)
  - Test tar command before blindly using it (tests were already
    being made for compressed tars "tar.gz", "tar.xz", etc) (gh#86, gh#87)
  - Tweaks to test suite to hopefully accommodate a haiku install (gh#81)
  - Add atleast_version, exact_version and max_version properties for
    pkg-config plugins (gh#78, gh#79)

1.52      2019-02-09 05:45:12 -0500
  - Use $alien->libs -L flags to help find system dynamic libs.

1.51      2019-01-19 14:23:23 -0500
  - cmake plugin sets CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR:PATH to lib for share installs
    for cmake projects using GNUInstallDirs on platforms that default to
    something other than lib.

1.50      2019-01-16 12:55:08 -0500
  - Removed temp testing files unintentionally included in the previous
    release.
  - Require ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.64, for Alien::Build::MM, which can
    sometimes have its BUILD_REQUIRES or TEST_REQUIRES overridden by
    Dist::Zilla otherwise.

1.49      2018-11-04 15:22:40 -0500
  - Added Alien::Build::Plugin::Test::Mock
  - Added alienfile_skip_if_missing_prereqs function to Test::Alien::Build
  - Remove run-time dependency on Test2::Suite
    Test2::API is still a run-time dependency, but that has
    been in-core since 5.26.

1.48      2018-07-04 20:33:29 -0400
  - Production release identical to 1.47_01

1.47_01   2018-07-03 23:17:09 -0400
  - Fixed bug where Alien::Base was capturing stderr and stdout
    from pkg-config, instead of just stdout which is what it should

  - Fix Test::Alien bug where -L could be placed after directories specified in %Config
    (this was already handled correctly by Alien::Base::Wrapper).
  - Remove cpp and C++ options for xs_ok (I don't believe these were used in practice
    and were issuing deprecation warnings for a while).
  - A number of documentation errors have been fixed (jjatria++ leto++)

1.25      2017-10-09 08:57:34 -0400

    could override (instead of augment) the alien cflags or libs.  This is
    most commonly a problem when using Test::Alien::CPP.
