Last change on this file since 26670 was 9377, checked in by kjdon, 19 years ago

minor configuration change in Makefile.PL and Expat/Makefile.PL - set MAKEFILE_OLD to Makefile. when you do a clean, Makefile was being renamed to Makefile.old, which means that after a clean, you have to do a configure to get the Makefile back. Now it just renames it to teh same name. gives an error but it is ignored. hope it doesn't make something else go wrong.

1This directory contains perl modules from cpan for use with the Greenstone
2collection building code. After a "make install" these modules will be
3installed to the gsdl/perllib/cpan directory.

5Note that pure perl modules (i.e. those not containing any C code to
6compile) don't need building so they don't live in the packages directory
7tree (they live in perllib/cpan).

17 a few modifications to Makefile.PL. See below.

27 - Version 2.34 and version 2.27
28added MAKEFILE_OLD => 'Makefile' to the Makefile.PL WriteMakeFile directive.
29previously, doing a make clean renamed the Makefile to Makefile.old, so then
30a make wouldn't work. Now Makefile gets renamed to Makefile. Hopefully this
31won't stuff anything else up.

37- Version 2.27 - as downloaded from cpan.org but with a few files removed
38 (to minimize the size of the tarball we distribute) and minor Greenstone
39 specific modifications to Makefile.PL. Originally used version 2.29 but
40 it appeared to be incompatible with perl 5.6.1.
