* Explicitly use Cwd's chdir
0.34 Sat Jun 27 14:23:54 2009
* Attempt to address #46948: unable to install install on win32.
Binaries on Win32 are notoriously unreliable and Strawberry perl
ships with all the needed perl modules, so skip failed binary
tests on Win32.
* Address #47053: Use Archive::Tar iter to keep from read the
tar into memory. Thanks to Robert Krimen and Doug Wilson for
their patches.
0.32 Fri Jun 12 13:23:11 2009
* Some tars have extra newlines in their '-x' output,
so grep for 'length' when parsing the file list, or
errors like this one can crop up:
http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/03/msg3476639.html
* Add docs that A::E is not always thread safe. See RT #45671
0.31_03 Wed Mar 11 12:38:43 2009
* Newer versions of 'tar' (1.21 and up) now print record size
to STDERR as well if v OR t is given (used to be both). This
is a 'feature' according to the changelog, so we must now only
inspect STDOUT, otherwise, failures like these occur:
nntp.perl.org/group/perl.cpan.testers/2009/02/msg3230366.html
Thanks to tcallawa from RedHat for tracking this down.
0.31_02 Tue Mar 3 17:01:26 2009
* Address: #43278: Explicitly tell Archive::Zip where to put the files
In certain edge cases, archive::zip would extract to dirname($0) instead
of cwd(); Now we tell Archive::Zip explicitly where to extract to.
0.31_01 Fri Feb 6 15:39:13 2009
* Address #40138; .tar files on Win32 would not extract properly with
gnu tar (default on cygwin) under Cmd.exe/Native Win32 system calls.
Gnu tar interprets file names with a : in them, like C:\tmp\foo.tar
as a remote path, and attempts to execute rsh instead.
Archive::Extract now checks for gnu tar on Win32 and adds the
'--force-local' flag to disable this behaviour.
* Improved diagnostics from the test suite
* Enabled debugging in the test suite for development releases.
0.30 Tue Dec 16 17:32:13 2008
* This is a test suite fix; users of 0.28 need not upgrade.
* Archive::Extract would not reliably skip binary extraction
tests when no binaries were found in $PATH, which causes
test suite failures.
0.28 Fri Oct 10 15:22:51 2008
* Address: #39554: Must set $Archive::Tar::CHOWN, not
$Archive::Tar::Constant::CHOWN to control the chown()
functionality when using Archive::Tar.
* Various test suite improvements to test warnings
and errors emitted by Archive::Extract.
0.27_02 Wed Sep 24 17:37:52 2008
* Test & build improvements: users of 0.27_01 need
not upgrade.
* Test suite would die if no files were reported
to be extracted, because Test::More::is() would
choke on a negative array index on an empty array
ref.
* Up dependency of IPC::Cmd to 0.41_05 to handle
pipes and whitespace better on shell out commands.
0.27_01 Mon Sep 22 14:20:20 2008
* Address: #32751: incorrect error message
Multiple error messages are now joined and will only be
reset upon next ->extract()
* Test suite improvement to split binary from pure perl
solutions to test implementations without fallback.
0.26 Sun Jan 27 16:31:20 2008
* Address #32370: Archive::Extract will hang if stdin
is a pipe. /bin/bunzip2 tried to read STDIN when printing
out it's '--version'.
* Address rt #32336 by a.r.ferreira@gmail.com to add .lzma
support to archive::extract
* Older versions of bunzip2 insist on a .bz2 suffix to extract
things. Guard against this, adapt the test suite and mention
it in the caveats.
0.24 Thu Sep 20 15:05:55 2007
* Older versions of /bin/bunzip2 only support archives
with a .bz2 suffix. Attempt to detect this with a new
method ->have_old_bunzip2, and skip tests accordingly.
Also document this in the CAVEATS section of the docs.
* Apply core change 31904: Clean up test files left
behind (on Win32, at least).
0.23_01 Sun Sep 9 12:39:08 2007
* Address Update ticket #27991 (Archive::Extract and
very large tar.gz files). Add a CAVEATS entry explianing
how to deal with large files & memory consumption
* VMS shell out & test fixes by John Malmberg
0.22 Tue May 29 21:18:46 2007
* Manifest didn't include one of the source files
for tests. If you have 0.20 installed there is no
need to upgrade. This is just a test suite fix.
0.20 Mon May 28 12:06:33 2007
* Address #27195: Implement support for .Z files.
* Small POD fixes
* Disable some test diagnostics under perl core tests
0.18 Wed Apr 11 21:20:53 2007
* Starting 5.9.5, this module installs itself in
the core-perl dir, rather than site-perl, as it's
now part of core.
* Reverse '$PREFER_BIN' conditional for tar/tar.gz
files. The current logic was actually exactly the
wrong way around.
* Small regex change to tar/tar.gz detection.
0.16 Fri Jan 26 11:07:24 2007
* address #24578: Wrong check for `type' argument
* add new method ->types that returns a list of
all supported archive types
* promote 0.15_03 to stable
0.15_03 Thu Jan 4 14:46:58 2007
* address #23999: Attempt to generate Makefile.PL
gone awry where paths starting with a '.'
are sometimes reported to be extracted in '.'
as well rather than their actual extraction dir.
0.15_02 Sun Nov 26 18:06:02 2006
* fix testing logic error, that assumed extracted
files were always logged when we did not prefer
binaries to extract with. However, that does not
mean the perl module is available, so we might
not have buffers after all.
* make sure we dont have test count mismatches
between buffers/non-buffers
0.15_01 Fri Nov 24 15:07:44 2006
* Apply patch from Paul Marquess to add pure
perl support for bzip2 encoded files. This
support requires you to have the module
IO::Uncompress::Bunzip2 installed.
* Error storage is now per object like it should
be rather than class wide.
* Update tests to not skip unnecessarily
* Up required version of IPC::Cmd to 0.36 for
5.6.x compatibility
* Improve diagnostics in the test suite when
run verbosely
0.14 Fri Oct 20 14:37:36 2006
* Tweak tests to play nicer on win32
* Up required version of IPC::Cmd
0.12 Sun Aug 13 14:55:54 2006
* Add diagnostics during the test suite informing
the user that File::Spec warnings may be
generated by Archive::Zip (see rt #19713).
These are safe to ignore.
0.11_02 Thu Aug 3 14:18:16 2006
* attempt to address #19815: make test fail under Cygwin
again. Unzip giving trouble this time. Adding -o
option to force overwriting of old files
* address #20829: test failure on Win32: no bunzip2?
bunzip2 detection wasn't working properly in the
test suite so tests weren't skipped on missing
bunzip2
0.11_01 Wed Aug 2 13:04:37 2006
* attempt to address #19815: make test fail under Cygwin
by adding more sanity checks about buffers
0.11 Wed Aug 2 11:15:48 2006
* add tentative bzip2 support
