Don't mention a number. - Convince debian/make.base and debian/make.versions to use $cpu-$system rather than $arch. - Use linux and gnu as acceptable systems in debian/make.base - Don't try to mkdir with '/' on the end of the name in debian/make.base - Skip packages we don't build in debian/make.versions - Change all maintainer scripts to use =cpu=-=system= rather than =arch= - Many changes to debian/rules to allow for conditional testing (not on arm, hurd) and conditional building of threads (not on hurd, 5.004) I think this is the last thing (other than debian/control) that is different between the builds. I'll parameterize debian/control on the next build and we'll be happy. * Change the paths in debian/rules and debian/perl-policy.MK to be FHS compliant. * Make the postinsts/prerms install/remove the compatibility symlink for the move from FSSTD to FHS. * Fix debian/make.versions to be FHS compliant as well. * Use -fPIC in the cccdlflags so that Perl compiles with -fPIC everwhere instead of -fpic in some places. This now complies with policy and closes: Bug#41587, #43930. * Have make test actually use make test-notty so as to not die on automated compiles. Closes: Bug#33225. * Use unlink instead of system("rm -f ...") in debian/make.base. I seem to've gotten carried away using cp -a a while back and used system instead of unlink.

Closes: Bug#38533. * In handy.h, only #define HAS_BOOL due to _G_HAVE_BOOL if we're using g++. _G_HAVE_BOOL is defined in _G_config.h. This will probably be included in a gcc program since stdio.h includes libio.h which includes _G_config.h. Thanks to Greg Stark .

This satisfies lintian and closes: bug#44544. * Applied patch from Jim Pick that adds the appropriate arch-specific *.ph files in debian/.ph/asm-arm. This would close bug#44605 but it's requiring some *.ph files he doesn't supply. Mail sent off to him about this. Got .ph/arm-arch/proc/shmparam.ph from him. Closes: bug#44605. * Add Porting/patchls to /usr/bin, fix its path. * install-doc should show be used in both remove && upgrade for prerm. Add stuff to debian/doc.postinst to deal with this problem. * Added re.pm and friends to perl-5.\d+-base. This closes: bug#45552. * Removed the large number of extra POSIX autoloader modules.

(Fixes Bug #27543) * Specifically turn off sfio for the standard release of Perl. -- Darren Stalder Sat, 9 Jan 1999 16:43:23 -0800 perl (5.004.04-6) frozen unstable; urgency=low * Fix symlinks for perl-suid and perl-debug doc directories. (Fixes Bug #19867) * Make sure that *all* files are readable. (Fixes Bug #20791) * Make changes to c2ph.PL (includes pstruct), perldoc, and s2p so that they try to use POSIX::tmpnam() in creating temp files. Note that perlbug already checks for the existence of the temp file before creating it. (Fixes Bug #19805) * Apply patch from next maintenance release so that -e scripts are kept in memory rather than written to a temporary file. * Fix typo in perlop(1p). Thanks to Richard Braakman for pointing this out. (Fixes Bug #22488) * Add /usr/doc/perl/perlfaq-is-free to explain Tom Christiansen's intent with his perlfaq copyright. (Closes Bugs #10286, #22705) * Fix typos in postrm scripts. Thanks to Mark Eichin for this. (Fixes Bug #23107) -- Darren Stalder Tue, 2 Jun 1998 04:42:47 -0700 perl (5.004.04-5) unstable; urgency=low * Add copyright file to perl-base since it makes it comply with the standards and doesn't take up much space. (Fixes Bug #19384) * Added files to base so that dpkg-ftp is fully supported. (Actually in -4, but I forgot to mention it.) (Fixes Bug #16134) * Added even more files to base so that libnet is fully supported. (Fixes Bug #18338, #18593) * Remove /usr/lib/perl5/DynaLoader.pm - yet another file left over from disk install. (Fixes Bug #17970, #18823) * Specify -DSTRUCT_TM_HASZONE to keep POSIX from dumping core. (Fixes Bug #17393) * debugperl and suidperl now have manpages that are symbolic links to perl(1p). I debated linking debugperl(1p) to perlrun(1p) and suidperl(1p) to perlsec(1p) but didn't think that was appropriate. (Fixes Bugs #6295, #6330, #9847, #9995, #10102). * Changed description of perldebug to say that it shows internals of Perl and helps debug Perl. (Fixes Bug #17547). * Changed the permissions on suidperl to give group and world read access. It makes no sense to restrict read access when anyone can get a copy of off CPAN. * Also registered suidperl with suidmanager. (Fixes Bug #15702) * Remove the execute permission and use strip --strip-unneeded on all the .so's. (Fixes #5100, #5124, #6328, #6903) * Sym-Link find2perl.1p.gz and pod2latex.1p.gz to undocumented.7.gz until I can write something or it's provided. Sym-Link pod2text.1p.gz to Pod::Text.3pm.gz. (Fixes #6328) * Sym-link /usr/doc/perl/changelog to /usr/doc/perl/Changes so that the latest upstream changes file has the proper name. * Tell perl_archive in ExtUtils::MM_Unix to return -lc so that the shared libraries built with MakeMaker have libc dependency information embedded in them. Note that if the module specifies it's own libraries, those will come after the -lc. If this is a problem, the module should specify -lc in its library list. * Use mkstemp to avoid security/dos race conditions in /tmp. -- Darren Stalder Tue, 10 Mar 1998 23:00:09 -0800 perl (5.004.04-4) unstable; urgency=low * Add || true to the fixup lines in the perl.postinst - the previous method didn't expose the error return of rmdir -p, the if;then;fi method does. (Fixes Bugs #15854, #16412, #17328, #17425) * Adapted patch from Stephen Zander so that Perl knows to use getspnam if shadowing is enabled. (Needed extra Configure bits added.) (Fixes Bug #15993) * Added Conflicts: perl (<<5.004.04-2) to perl-base so you can't install it with an older version of the perl package. (Fixes Bug #16810) * Make sure that none of the gzipped examples are executable in /usr/doc/perl/examples. (Fixes Bug #11978) * Remove /usr/lib/perl5/IO/Handle.pm. It was left over from a disk install where parts of Perl weren't handled by dpkg. Its presence is causing version mis-matches. (Fixes Bug #15572) -- Darren Stalder Sat, 24 Jan 1998 21:17:28 -0800 perl (5.004.04-3) unstable; urgency=medium (High for those upgrading from bo) * A start on building a libperl5.so.\d+. I'm going to put this into since 1) Perl is linking with a static libperl.a and 2) people may want to install libperl5.so.\d+ without installing perl. * Oops. I hadn't considered the chance that the old perl package would be replaced by the new perl package (without Perl) before perl.base was configured. Added a pre-depends of perl-base (>=5.004.04-2) to make sure that Perl is always installed on an upgrade. * The first 90% of a project takes 90% of the time. The remaining 10% of the time takes the other 90%. Building a libperl ran into some interesting snags and will not debut with this version. * Adapted patch by Herbert Xu that uses if's in the postinst so that we don't get false negatives on install. Took the chance to change the find/xargs to use -print0/-0 jic. -- Darren Stalder Tue, 9 Dec 1997 12:21:48 -0800 perl (5.004.04-2) unstable; urgency=medium * Wonderful idea from Scott Ellis , set archlib to be the major version so that maintenance versions don't break all the arch-dependent perl-debian packages. * Strip a2p, fixing Bug #14891. * Files copied by make.base should keep hard-links. -- Darren Stalder Fri, 28 Nov 1997 22:27:45 -0800 perl (5.004.04-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream (maintenance) version * Turn off Perl 5.003 compatibility since this is the libc6 version. (should've been done last version) * All tests finally pass now that locale test #102 was considered not important for Perl. * First attempt to get perl-base -really- working. (As opposed to what I did in 5.003.07). -- Darren Stalder Tue, 21 Oct 1997 02:20:05 -0700 perl (5.004.02-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream (maintenance) version * Recompiled for libc6. * Remove ftp.pl from the distribution since it depends on chat2.pl which is obsolete and has been removed from the perl dist at the request of its author. * Remove the -I/usr/include/db since that was only for libc5. -- Darren Stalder Mon, 7 Aug 1997 21:55:23 -0700 perl (5.004-2) unstable; urgency=low * I had a semi-colon in the wrong place such that the gzip of the man-pages (which are now compressed) killed off the removal of the build artifacts in Config.pm. Enough still ran so as to not be overly noticeable. Registering bug against gzip since it should be possible to not have an error if you try to compress already compressed files. -- Darren Stalder Tue, 24 Jun 1997 00:52:12 -0700 perl (5.004-1) unstable; urgency=low * Perl 5.004 is released. Another debian version will follow that fixes packaging problems. * Applied patch from HJ Lu for libc6. * Edit copyright file for correct version. * Take the /bin/perl link out of the build tar's postinst. -- Darren Stalder Thu, 15 May 1997 18:29:55 -0700 perl (5.003.07-10) unstable frozen; urgency=HIGH * SUID perl patch to fix buffer overrun that allows any user to get a suid-root shell. -- Darren Stalder Mon, 21 Apr 1997 20:50:21 -0700 perl (5.003.07-9) unstable frozen; urgency=medium * Applied patch from HJ Lu for libc6 * Removed perl-base from dist for release into bo * This will be the last release that has /bin/perl as a link (or at all). -- Darren Stalder Wed, 16 Apr 1997 01:02:07 -0700 perl (5.003.07-8) unstable; urgency=low * How'd that get in there? Somehow a static version of postinst crept into the dist such that it depended on 5.00320 and i386. *embarrased* -- Darren Stalder Sat, 8 Mar 1997 14:06:21 -0800 perl (5.003.07-7) unstable; urgency=low * Compile the perl library with -D_REENTRANT for LinuxThreads. It's still dangerous and there are problems with MULTIPLICITY (which this isn't compiled with) as well. * Sent the output of the various rmdir -p's in postinst to /dev/null so that people don't see old gunk. * Included target to add a comment to the changelog so that an automatic package from untarring this in a new perl subversion works with the correct version. -- Darren Stalder Mon, 3 Mar 1997 01:35:20 -0800 perl (5.003.07-6) unstable; urgency=low * Changed perl, perl-suid, and perl-debug to section interpreters. Changed perl-base to section base. * Changed rules to determine the perl version dynamically so that it doesn't have to be editted for each new version. * Rebuld and upload so that perl will just pre-depend on libc5.4 rather than libc5.4.17-1. This and -5 were destined for stable and 5.4.17-1 isn't available for that. -- Darren Stalder Fri, 17 Jan 1997 19:04:13 -0800 perl (5.003.07-5) unstable; urgency=low * Moved config.over.MK to the debian directory so that all the files that I add are there. * Just ignore the mkdir on /usr/local as the easiest solution to the NFS-ro /usr/local problem. Suggestion by Guy Maor . -- Darren Stalder Fri, 10 Jan 1997 02:13:22 -0800 perl (5.003.07-4) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed problem with suidperl. It will actually run suid now. -- Darren Stalder Sun, 15 Dec 1996 23:56:59 -0800 perl (5.003.07-3) unstable; urgency=low * Add check to postinst to check for old perlconfig created include directories and removed them. * Made perlbase's Config.pm use the correct install paths * Made perl provide/replace/conflict with perlbase to replace it properly * No longer put libperl.a in suidperl since we not doing shared perl. -- Darren Stalder Thu, 12 Dec 1996 23:40:09 -0800 perl (5.003.07-2) unstable; urgency=low * Changed Perl to provide io as well as conflict with it since it's been subsumed into the main perl distribution. * Applied patch from Nick to make use FileHandle; work transparently although is should be use IO::Handle (or other appropriate IO::) * Applied patch from Randy so that use sigtrap doesn't complain anymore. * Applied patch from Paul that changes use strict tie; into a warning. * Changed perl back to a static libperl * Developed and packaged a perl-base to go on the base-floppies. -- Darren Stalder Thu, 21 Nov 1996 04:13:51 -0800 perl (5.003.07-1) unstable; urgency=medium * added code to postinst/prerm that only creates the empty /usr/local/lib/site_perl directory if /usr/local/lib is writable by root (fixes Bug #5003) * Updated to dpkg standards version 2.1.1.0 (fixes Bugs #3874, 4709) * Pre-generated all the *.ph files that people will probably need. The correct asm directory will have a symbolic link set during postinst. (fixes Bugs #4493, 4739, 1856, 3770, 3277, 3803, 3814, 1099, 3784, 1201, 1170, 3908, 2405, 4717, 2184, 1411, 2440) I wonder if this is a record for the most number of bugs fixed by a change. * Changed debian.rules to generate a shared libperl for the main executable with a static suidperl and debugperl. This should help Fast-CGI, nvi, and if folks are using the compiler. * Edited the copyright file to reflect current reality rather than bygone days (fixes Bug #2589) * Added Pre-depends: ldso to control file in case the user upgrades ldso at the same time they upgrade Perl. (fixes Bug #2589) * Made sure that all files in the examples directory (/usr/doc/perl/examples) were readable (fixes Bug #3995, 4615, 4734, 4870) * Added symbolic link /usr/doc/perl/examples to point to the examples directory. (fixes Bug #3997) (this is obsoleted by new standards) -- Darren Stalder Mon, 28 Oct 1996 05:34:26 -0800 Perl 5.003 Debian 2 Mon Jul 1 01:27:23 1996 Darren Stalder * Changed Depends: libc5, libdb1, libgdbm1 to Pre-Depends * Added check for pre-depends support into preinst * Added a link to ../usr/bin/perl from /bin/perl * Had Configure undef CSH so that we don't need to depend on csh anymore. Perl 5.003 Debian 1 Tue Jun 25 02:25:00 1996 Darren Stalder * Added patches from Charles Bailey to bring Perl up to 5.003 * Included patch set from Andy Dougherty to fix gconvert problem. Perl 5.002 Debian 10 Thu Jun 6 01:05:36 1996 Darren Stalder * The permissions of many of the files were set right. Fix in debian.rules so this can't happen again. Perl 5.002 Debian 9 Tue Jun 4 02:00:00 1996 Darren Stalder * Changed recommends of perl from source | includes to libc5-dev in accord with where the include files actually come from * Added the following Priority fields: Perl - Important (from Packages), perl-suid - Standard, perl-debug - Optional * use dpkg-name instead of a manual move Perl 5.002 Debian 9 Wed May 1 00:13:32 1996 Darren Stalder * Changed the '_' in the the package names to '-' per Ian Jackson. Perl 5.002 Debian 8 Sun Apr 28 18:28:34 1996 Darren Stalder * Added Source and Section fields to all of the control files. Perl 5.002 Debian 8 Fri Apr 26 23:59:47 1996 Darren Stalder * Added tcsh as well as c-shell to the dependency list. I'll remove the tcsh once c-shell is provided by it. * Changed the suidperl from being a question in the postinst to being it's own package. * Added perld (debugging perl) as a package. Both of these are dependent on the specific version of perl. We'll see if this causes a problem in upgrading. * Changed mail address in postinst to debian-bugs@pixar.com. I've got to do something about perlconfig Perl 5.002 Debian 8 Wed Apr 17 02:48:46 1996 Darren Stalder * Changed the tcsh dependency to c-shell. * Added the dosuid define to Configure so that perl would once again create a suidperl. It was dropped from the upstream release. There is a question in the postinst that asks if you want it or not. Perl 5.002 Debian 8 Mon Mar 11 23:01:27 1996 Darren Stalder * Added dependency on tcsh until the globbing works without calling csh. Perl 5.002 Debian 7 Fri Feb 23 21:41:04 1996 Darren Stalder * Added changes from the m68k project to make perl compile cleanly on m68k Perl 5.002 Debian 6 Thu Feb 8 07:42:52 1996 Darren Stalder * Patch from Andreas from Test::Harness for where libwww tickled some bugs. Perl 5.002 Debian 6 Tue Feb 6 21:20:37 1996 Darren Stalder * Paul patched his modules so they comply with version-checking and makes some of them strict clean * Paul patched xsubpp to allow for empty prototypes (1.933) * Patch from Larry to fix a broken study (it didn't know when a string was modified) * Patch from dean to shutup warnings from File:Path Perl 5.002 Debian 5 Tue Feb 6 03:52:37 1996 Darren Stalder * Implemented basic (sev 1) changes to Config.pm for initial fix on Bug #1916. The debian install paths are no longer embedded in it. Perl 5.002 Debian 5 Mon Feb 5 19:02:01 1996 Darren Stalder * Changed to new debian release number since the beta level changed * Larry released beta3 * Some extra configure variables creeped into Configure. Fixed by Tim * Revamped 32bit overflow patch for beta3 from Chip * Don't allow globbing to take place on open if strict refs is in place * Andreas upgraded Test::Harness to 1.06 * Selfstubber nees to tell Exporter that it's autoloaded (andreas) * Fix so that reading the _DATA_ file handle doesn't freeze at EOF (Chip) * debugger still had old version at the end.

This puts it back in. (from Tom) * $@ would append to itself with each die Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Fri Jan 26 03:15:26 1996 Darren Stalder * perlxs.pod documentation patch by Dean Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Wed Jan 24 00:45:04 1996 Darren Stalder * Andy added an extra $ to nm when he applied my patch - fixed * Paul upgraded xsubpp to 1.931 * Started using the debian-extract-changes.pl from the libdb package Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Tue Jan 23 11:43:51 1996 Darren Stalder * Ilya fixed parts of the Readline pod docs * Andy left out a piece on the pod/Makefile patch * patch to DBL_BIG in case someone tries to build this with a.out Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Mon Jan 22 03:22:34 1996 Darren Stalder * Upgraded to perl5.002beta2 from Andy * Added in the pod fixes from Tom * Upgraded xsubpp to 1.930 from Paul * The debugger was added in twice in 2b2, patch2b2a fixes this * Added a pod/Makefile fix from Andy * Dean upgraded h2x2 to version 1.14 - patched Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Wed Jan 10 04:36:02 1996 Darren Stalder * Added patches for the following: hex('80000000'), 0x80000000 should be the same - Chip Salzenberg a variety of fixes for File::Find - Tim Bunce perlembed.pod is less misleading - Tim Bunce fixes for perlre.pod and perl.pod - Hallvard B Furuseth Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Sun Jan 7 02:47:14 1996 Darren Stalder * Upgraded to the upstream version of perl5.002beta1h from Andy * Removed the a.out generation from debian.rules since I'm not making a.out packages anymore * Changed pod/Makefile from PERL = perl to PERL = ../miniperl so that a build will work if you don't have perl installed already * Changed installperl to not try to guess about links if you installing to a different directory than you will be running from (debian-tmp/usr/bin) Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Fri Dec 29 23:57:14 1995 Darren Stalder * Added a check to see if /usr/local/include is there before attempting to build .ph files from the .h files there (Bug #1856) Perl 5.002 Debian 4 Fri Dec 22 01:39:08 1995 Darren Stalder * Added the patch 5.002b1g from Tom - a documentation only patch Perl 5.002 Debian 3 Tue Dec 19 01:47:19 1995 Darren Stalder * Perl now uses the new sonames for libgdbm and libdb with dependencies on the new names (libdb1 and libgdbm1) Perl 5.002 Debian 3 Mon Dec 18 03:23:04 1995 Darren Stalder * Summary of additions: Added patches a-f from Andy Applied the patch to implement Safe perl that will be coming out soon. Applied some documentation patches - perldata/dsc/mod/ref by TomC, perlembed by JonO, tiehash by RandyR, and perlxs by DeanR * Had to cruft up the Configure script so that it does an nm on static libs and an nm -D on shared libs. I thought just nm should work on both. Perl 5.002 Debian 2 Mon Nov 27 02:34:59 1995 Darren Stalder * Removed find lines in debian.rules binary install since installperl does a good job of it * Removed find lines in postinst/perlconfig since the include file permissions and modes should be fine. * moved /usr/doc/perl/example_code to /usr/doc/examples/perl * Changed reference in example README to 'eg' directory to examples directory * Changed some bad paths in example code directory * Had install check and not ask about installing in odd places if debian-tmp is in the install-path Perl 5.002 Debian 1 Sat Nov 25 01:05:15 1995 Darren Stalder * Removed manual generation of manpages in debian.rules file. Now just call ./installman with the appropriate arguments. * Changed extensions for man1 pages to 1p and man3 pages to 3pm * Changed Configure so that it actually listens when you tell it what extensions to use for for man1 and man3. * Changed references to /usr/local and perl5.000 in the man pages * Changed references in scripts from /usr/local to /usr * Setup config.over file to fix-up config.sh to install into debian-tmp/usr/* instead of trying to do it in sh. The shared libs weren't going in the right place. * Generated absolute path in config.over since the install runs from many different subdirectoris Perl 5.002 Debian 1 Wed Nov 22 20:42:34 1995 Darren Stalder * Applied some doc changes to perlre.pod Perl 5.002 Debian 1 Tue Nov 21 02:57:54 1995 Darren Stalder * Updated to 5.002beta1. * Changed the prerm/postinst scripts to reflect the new version specific *.ph directories * Added dependencies on libgdbm and libdb, giving support for those databases. * Removed gdbm capability from aout version. User can add it if necessary without recompiling perl. * SDBM problem went away with patchlevel 2. Perl 5.002 Debian 1 Sat Nov 18 00:16:15 1995 Darren Stalder * I (Darren Stalder) took over as maintainer of Perl. * Put quotes around $Config{archlibexp} in h2ph.PL to prevent -w warnings. * Changed the various debian files to reflect the new status. * Changed the debian.rules to use elf as the primary development platform with a.out being secondary. * Having problems with SDBM. Perl 5.001 Debian 7 (5.001n) - ??-??-95 Ray Dassen * UNRELEASED * Longer Description field in control file. * Changed Maintainer field to myself. This package should still be considered orphaned though. * a.out version now does dynamic loading via libdld. Perl 5.001 Debian 6 (5.001n) - 04-11-95 Ray Dassen * Updated to 5.001n: big patch, small problems remain. * debian.rules now passes definitions to Configure, instead of running Configure with a modified hints/linux.sh. * Use a variable in debian.rules to test the binary format. * With ELF, DB_File support is disabled (rather ad hoc). * Use softlinks for suidperl and perl. * Added explicit Depends: elf-libc, which was implicit (via elf-libgdbm). Perl 5.001 Debian 5 (5.001m) - 16-10-95 Ray Dassen * ELF version has GDBM support; depends on elf-libgdbm * Diff now relative to Andy Dougherty's patches (these are unofficial, but de facto standard). Perl 5.001 Debian 4 - 13-10-95 Ray Dassen * Interim release, since perl appears to be orphaned. * Updated to 5.001m. Perl 5.001 Debian 3 - 5/9/95 Carl Streeter * Fixed Bug#219. h2ph was making output which didn't work. * put magic in the postinst to fix it. This opens the can * of worms whereby I fix all of h2ph's messups. Ugh. Perl 5.001 Debian 2 - 5/8/95 Carl Streeter * Added dialog.pl interface to dialog for Jim Robinson Perl 5.001 Debian 1 - 3/1/95 Carl Streeter * Updated perl version to 5.001. * Added black magic to figure out if a kernel tree was installed * Yelled a lot if one wasn't * added unofficial patches a-e from perl5-porters * added 'perlconfig' script to generate all possible header files (Just a copy of postinst, really) * perl now passes all of the tests. Perl 5.000 Debian 5 - 3/1/95 Carl Streeter * fixed bug in h2ph handling on subdirectories * merged all of the unofficial patches from the perl5-porters mailing list. Perl 5.000 Debian 4 - 3/1/95 Carl Streeter * h2ph now makes all useful headers. Perl 5.000 Debian 3 - 2/28/95 Carl Streeter * called h2ph to make the handy perl headers. * Put the example code and emacs modes in /usr/doc Perl 5.000 Debian 2 - 2/27/95 Carl Streeter * generally fixed it up so it was useful for debian. Perl 5.000 Debian 1 - Robert Sanders * Initial release. Local variables: mode: debian-changelog End:
