Module-Build 0.21_02

on Perl CPAN

During testing, if YAML.pm isn't installed, then we won't try
making a tarball with Archive::Tar either, since this would invoke
YAML to create the META.yml file.

Fixed a problem with chmod() being called incorrectly on MacOS
(i.e. MacPerl, not Mac OS X). [Spotted by Paul Sanford Toney]

Fixed a problem with the --config flag not being treated properly
(essentially ignored) on the command line for 'perl Build.PL' or
'Build '. [Spotted by Jakub Bogusz]

Added a new config() method to get at the Build object's notion of
the %Config hash.

Test::Harness is starting to contend for the Most Crotchety Module
Award. Work around a few of its nits when setting harness
switches. [Spotted by Diab Jerius]

Changed the manpage separator on OS/2 to '.'. [Randy Sims]

Now the Build script will die() if we're run from the wrong
directory, rather than trying to chdir() to the right directory and
do its work there. See
https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=4039 . [Chris Dolan]

On OS/2, disable C compilation, since apparently it isn't working
there. [Reported by Ilya Zakharevich]

Inserted a comment into auto-generated Makefile.PLs saying it was
auto-generated. [Randy Sims]

Fixed some annoying behavior in generated passthrough Makefile.PLs
when the user chose not to install Module::Build, or if
installation failed. [Reported by Ilya Zakharevich and Richard
Clamp]

Moved the documentation for 'codebase' to the section where it's
relevant. [Randy Sims, Glenn Linderman]

Made the 'name', 'abstract', 'author', and 'version' properties
required when building a PPD file. [Spotted by Randy Sims, Dave
Rolsky, & Glenn Linderman]
