|
|
20 | - implement lzf compression for library files, use "--compress none" |
|
|
21 | to disable. |
|
|
22 | - switch default mirrors to https. |
|
|
23 | - add backpan to urrlist by default, so its easier to install older, working, |
|
|
24 | modules such as JSTOWE/TermReadKey-2.33.tar.gz |
|
|
25 | - configure pushy_https by default, as this extraordinarily stupidly |
|
|
26 | named option apparently breaks urllist completely. |
|
|
27 | - new hook: postcpanconfig. |
|
|
28 | - more aggreessively strip consecutive whitespace when using PPI. |
|
|
29 | - avoid idiotic "Reverse operator" warning when stripping with PPI. |
|
|
30 | - change default compression for perl tarballs to gzip, as upstream |
|
|
31 | keeps changing compression algorithms and gzip is the only stable one. |
|
|
32 | - unset some more environment variables to reduce interference. |
|
|
33 | - implement (partial and so farr undocumented --keepnl mode for ppi stirpping). |
|
|
34 | - when installing modules, try to install before AND after building perl, to |
|
|
35 | work around a perl bug where it would try to link against both installed |
|
|
36 | and just-built versions of a module, which seems to happen for dual-life moduöes |
|
|
37 | such as Encode. |
|

|
39 | 1.46 Tue 15 Feb 2022 19:25:09 CET |
|
|
40 | - when building an app ("mkapp"), staticperl freed the argv too |
|
|
41 | early, which causes memory corruption when perl is later |
|
|
42 | assigning to $0. |
|
|
43 | - default CPAN recommends_policy/suggests_policy to off. |
|
|
44 | - new bundle args: --extra-cflags, --extra-ldflags and --extra-libs. |
|
|
45 | - fix CBuilder workaround to actually use PERL_CFLAGS not PERL_CFLASGS. |
|
|
46 | - minor cosmetic fixes. |
|
|
47 | |
|
|
48 | 1.45 Fri Oct 19 23:26:54 CEST 2018 |
|
|
49 | - work around weird, buggy and broken stacksize check in newer Storable. |
|
|
50 | - create a framework for patching modules before make, thanks to Storable. |
|
|
51 | - try to work around install phase changing thw cwd,m so instsrc . no |
|
|
52 | longer fails because the install dependency changed the cwd. |
|
|
53 | - restore PL_origfilename and $0 to argv[0] before running bootstrap, |
|
|
54 | so the script name is no longer '-e' in error messages and so on. |
|
|
55 | - PERL_VERSION can now be a full URL or a directory. |
|
|
56 | - default to stableperl. |
|
|
57 | - add -Uversiononly to Configure args, as it's required by staticperl, and |
|
|
58 | one of the many unrelated things usedevel needlessly toggles. |
|
|
59 | |
|
|
60 | 1.44 Tue Jul 7 01:32:49 CEST 2015 |
|
|
61 | - added Net::SSLeay hint, tested and improved by gleeco. |
|
|
62 | - fix quoting bug, avoid failure when EXTRA_MODULES contains spaces. |
|
|
63 | - enable build_requires_install_policy to work around one of the myriad |
|
|
64 | bugs in Module::Build. |
|
|
65 | - support concurrent access to the DLCACHE. |
|
|
66 | - install ExtUtils::CBuilder early, to improve chances of succeeding |
|
|
67 | slightly by having a newer version. |
|
|
68 | - patch ExtUtils::CBuilder::Base::have_compiler to always return |
|
|
69 | false, as ExtUtils::CBuilder blindly builds shared libs on systems |
|
|
70 | that cannot build shared libs and modules relying on it usually |
|
|
71 | fail for similar reasons. |
|
|
72 | - set LD/CC/LDFLAGS/CFLAGS to work around the endlessly buggy ExtUtils::CBuilder, |
|
|
73 | which incidentally is a byproduct (read: garbage) of Module::Build. |
|
|
74 | - be more aggressive about post-install patching, to avoid stuff falling |
|
|
75 | through the cracks. |
|
|
76 | - override MAP_TARGET for ExtUtils::MakeMaker, as some modules |
|
|
77 | provide their own name for the perl binary (which is not what we want). |
|
|
78 | - update DynaLoader patch for current ExtUtils::MakeMaker. |
|
|
79 | |
|
|
80 | 1.43 Wed Apr 18 14:38:43 CEST 2012 |
|
|
81 | - remove the temporary MakeMaker patch, as either Pod::Parser or |
|
|
82 | MakeMaker have been fixed. Also make sure we pull MakeMaker |
|
|
83 | from CPAN. This might fix the CPAN dependency problems with |
|
|
84 | newer perl versions (at least 5.14.2). |
|
|
85 | - staticperl mkperl or mkapp didn't clean up temporary files. |
|
|
86 | - PPI::XS seems to be broken, directly depend on PPI. |
|
|
87 | |
|
|
88 | 1.42 Mon Mar 5 08:16:02 CET 2012 |
|
|
89 | - actually, really do it. |
|
|
90 | |
|
|
91 | 1.41 Mon Mar 5 08:14:11 CET 2012 |
|
|
92 | - temporarily patch ExtUtils::MakeMaker because newer versions |
|
|
93 | break Pod::Parser. |
|
|
94 | |
|
|
95 | 1.4 Mon Jul 18 09:33:48 CEST 2011 |
|
|
96 | - new configuration variable DLCACHE to avoid repeated downloads. |
|
|
97 | - the static:: namespace was wrongly documented as sttaicperl::. |
|
|
98 | - provide no compiler flags apart from -Os anymore by default. |
|
|
99 | - staticperl clean now removes all build files (src/). |
|
|
100 | - staticperl no longer sets EV_EXTRA_DEFS or CORO_INTERFACE. |
|
|
101 | - patch ExtUtils::Miniperl to always include DynaLoader, otherwise |
|
|
102 | static linking disables later dynamic linking and vice versa. |
|
|
103 | - (experimental) do not build a new perl unless a static archive |
|
|
104 | was created, to make -Dusedl faster. |
|
|
105 | - actually fail when not being able to install some modules from CPAN. |
|
|
106 | - speed up installing modules from CPAN if multiple modules have |
|
|
107 | been specified. |
|
|
108 | - weed out duplicated libraries form the beginning, not the end. |
|
|
109 | - set shell variable $PERL to full path to perl binary |
|
|
110 | when running staticperl cpan, which is handy for subshells. |
|
|
111 | - properly define "boot_DynaLoader" when DynaLoader is available. |
|
|
112 | - fix a memleak in static::list. |
|
|
113 | - mkbundle can now bundle dynamic objects for perl extensions |
|
|
114 | (--allow-dynamic). |
|
|
115 | - lots of windows workarounds/bugfixes. |
|
|
116 | |
|
|
117 | 1.31 Tue Jun 14 09:03:59 CEST 2011 |
|
|
118 | - pause is more tricky than expected - rename fake.pm to Staticperl.pm. |
|
|
119 | - improved documentation a bit. |
|
|
120 | |
|
|
121 | 1.3 Tue May 10 19:39:39 CEST 2011 |
|
|
122 | - the nothing-to-see-except-a-version-bump release. |
|
|
123 | - package a fake.pm file to (maybe!) get CPAN to allocate namespace |
|
|
124 | for us, as people have real trouble to install the distribution. |
|
|
125 | |
|
|
126 | 1.22 Sun May 1 11:28:54 CEST 2011 |

134 | instead. |
|
|
135 | - disable MAN1PODS and MAN3PODS in PERL_MM_OPT, to make Glib, Cairo, |
|
|
136 | Pango and Gtk2 build. |
|
|
137 | - patch ExtUtils::MM_Unix to search for static archives in blib more |
|
|
138 | often, as it doesn't detect Pango as being an XS module (which |
|
|
139 | is a bug in Pango). |
|
|
140 | - create a patch helper (SP-patch-postinstall) that is executed |
|
|
141 | after perl and eahc module install to do some important patches. |
|
|
142 | - rename the cpan-make-inmstall helper to SP-make-install-make. |
|
|
143 | - write mkbundle to bin/SP-mkbundle. |
|
|
144 | - new "staticperl perl" command. |
|
|
145 | - updated small/bigperl to 5.12.3. |
