- 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++)

This is a maintenance release. The code contains no functional change.
Satisfied users of version 0.63 can skip this update.
+ Add : Contributing guidelines are now listed in the new
CONTRIBUTING file.
+ Fix : [RT #151104] : fix for t/18-opinfo.t broken under blead
Some optimization in core made t/18-opinfo.t fail since perl
5.39.7, but that was reverted before 5.40 was released.
This fix will make this test pass even when the optimization
is reinstantiated after release freeze.
Thanks David Mitchell for reporting and providing a fix.

- add Test2 compatibility in the test triggered by done_testing();
- new long-awaited feature (!!!) "allow_patterns", to either
temporarily or globally exempt particular warning patterns.
0.032 2023-09-30 23:36:50Z
- new config variable, $ENV{PERL_TEST_WARNINGS_ONLY_REPORT_WARNINGS},
for temporarily turning failures into reports.
Reported by Stephen Berman, diagnosed by Bruce. Thanks!
1.94 2024-01-08
- New stable release incorporating all changes from developer releases 1.93_01
to 1.93_05.
- Summary of major changes since version 1.92:
- Net::SSLeay now officially supports all stable releases of OpenSSL 3.1 and
3.2, and LibreSSL 3.5 - 3.8.
- Many noisy compiler warnings have been silenced - if SSLeay.xs fails to
compile, it should now be much easier to identify the cause.
- libcrypto's OPENSSL_init_crypto() function and libssl's OPENSSL_init_ssl()
function are now exposed, enabling fine-grained control over the
initialisation and configuration of both libraries.
- libssl functions implementing TLS 1.3 PSK authentication are now exposed,
in particular SSL_CTX_set_psk_find_session_callback() (on the server side)
and SSL_CTX_set_psk_use_session_callback() (on the client side).
- libssl functions implementing server-side TLS 1.2 PSK authentication are
now exposed, in particular SSL_CTX_set_psk_server_callback().
- libssl's SSL_CTX_set_client_hello_cb() function is now exposed, allowing a
TLS server to set a callback function that is executed when the server
processes a ClientHello message.
- Many more libcrypto/libssl constants and functions are now exposed; see the
release notes for the 1.93 developer releases for a full list
Found while checking versions of the deps.

Added <ins> and <del> to %isPhraseMarkup
Fixed docs about %isBodyElement calling it %isBodyMarkup
Cleaned up metadata and version requirements
No changes have been made to handle HTML5. That is a bigger issue
than "just add the tags to the hashes," because that would change
functionality for existing users who are expecting HTML::Tagset to
be HTML4.
Added explicit boolean overloading for trace objects. Without this,
Perl will use the object's string overloading and then check the
truthiness of the returned string, which is a lot of extra work.
This can produce significant slowdowns in some cases (where large
data is being passed around as a string and then ignored).
In 0.27 the XS switched from Variable::Magic to
Variable::OnDestruct, but that was reverted for 0.28 because
Variable::Magic will start workign again in perl-5.39.9.
All the remiining perl dependency updates do not change their
dependencies.
Update to Term-Table-0.018, version 0.017 dropped Importer.
Update to Test2-Suite-0.000159, version 0.000151 dropped both
Scope-Guard and Term-Table and made Module-Pluggable optional.
Scope-Guard is still current and needed by Test-File-ShareDir
but Importer and Module-Pluggable are no-longer needed, and
archived.
Apart from B-Hooks-EndOfScope (to follow), all the remainder
have unchanged dependencies.
These packages are needed in suport of qtwebengine.
Also changed phinxcontrib-htmlhelp and sphinx dependency references
for external ulinks to internal xrefs.
Texlive source: Fix up the tarball names, year, tarball names,
md5sums, sizes. Do not patch the source.
The links have not neen tested, and I have not yet attempted to
build this.
Like other texlive "extras", this overwrites various files on
texmf-dist. I'm now showing the net change (for this version of
this package in 2023 it is essentially only adding the program),
with a comment about the space used for a DESTDIR install.
There are still a few packages that need testing and the book updated.
The kf6 adn plasma packages referenced in LXQt are incorrect and need
to be changed to reference kf5 packages for now.
Note that there is a new package, plasma-activities, that is needed in
the kde-gear section, but needed to be taken from the plasma6 set of
packages.
kio-extras is no longer needed for the packages in the book.
This update replaces kf5. In doing so there are several packages
in BLFS that are broken, notably the LXQt packages that reference
kf5 packages.
Trying to maintain kf5 and kf6 in the book is more effort than it
is worth. For those that want the kf5 based elements, blfs-12.1
still works.
Several packages were updated to build with qt6 so they are not available
for packages that need the qt5 versions, These include qca, polkit-qt, and
phonon. A couple of packages that are no longer needed for kf6 are still
in the book: kuserfeedback and libdbusmenuqt.
Many filenames still need to be changed, e.g. kf5-frameworks.xml, as
well as xml defined identifiers.
Later when LXQt releases their qt6/kf6 based packages, then we will
do a scrub of all the book internals to make names consistent.
