  perl-5.8.4-r4.ebuild, perl-5.8.5-r5.ebuild, perl-5.8.6-r4.ebuild:
  The last rmtree patch contains a line that checks <archname>/Errno.pm in
  your existing perl install. If your kernel changes between perl installs, it
  dies horribly. Need to find a cleaner solution first. For everyone that just
  bumped their perls, I am terribly sorry that this wasn't realized earlier.

  old .ph files after an upgrade. Bug 72977 - modifications to allow for perl
  5.8.0 and multithreaded perls to use the perl-inc patch. In addition, modified

  27 Jan 2005; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> files/perl-cleaner:

*perl-5.8.4-r1 (29 Jul 2004)

  29 Jul 2004; Robert Coie <rac@gentoo.org> +perl-5.8.4-r1.ebuild:
  Move make test to src_test, but still call it if the maketest
  FEATURE is not enabled.  If maketest ever becomes a default, this
  can be reconsidered.  The NDBM-GDBM patch in bug 52660 is in here,
  and gdbm is allowed to provide ndbm, as it works for me with either
  1.8.0-r5 (so2) or 1.8.3 (so3).  So to get ndbm, one must either
  USE=berkdb and have db1 installed, or USE=gdbm in which case gdbm
  will come in.  The man page fixes from bug 58620 are in.
  src_configure has been split out of src_compile in preparation for
  making compiles more easily resumable.  An issue genone brought up
  where hardlinks aren't making it through portage's staging image has
  been addressed by making /usr/bin/perl a symlink to perl5.8.4
  instead of a hardlink.  The same issue was faced with suidperl,
  which has been removed completely to preemptively avoid security
  issues.  sperl${PV} is gone too, in favor of the perl recommendation
  to use sudo instead of having setuid perl executables.  I hope this
  will help security, but it can be restored if there is enough
  demand.
	
  23 Jul 2004; Robert Coie <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.4.ebuild:

  files/perl-5.8.0-prelink-lpthread.patch, files/perl-5.8.0-reorder-INC.patch,
  files/perl-5.8.0-sockatmark-should-__THROW.patch:
  Massive clean up. With 5.8.2 now marked stable on all platforms, we are
    removing the older 5.8.0 ebuilds, which are no longer available upstream
    anymore. I also cleaned out the files dir of any patches that were being
    specifically used by 5.8.0 and not the other versions.

  19 Feb 2004; Aron Griffis <agriffis@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.2-r1.ebuild:

  06 Jan 2004; Luca Barbato <lu_zero@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r12.ebuild:
  Marked ~arm to let me commit ppc related changes (it is as wierd as it sound)

*perl-5.8.2-r1 (29 Nov 2003)

  29 Nov 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.2-r1.ebuild,
  files/perl-5.8.2-picdl.patch:
  Make CCCDLFLAGS apply to static archives like DynaLoader.a as well, even
  though we are not building a shared libperl here, because we do have a shared
  library elsewhere. Should make it so that arches like amd64 and hppa no longer
  have to add -fPIC to all cflags blindly.

  26 Nov 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.2.ebuild:
  Make perl depend on exact same libperl version, so that upgrading perl will
  bring libperl along. Solves problems where new modules go into directories in
  @INC too new for libperl to know about

  16 Nov 2003; Brad House <brad_mssw@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.2.ebuild:
  mark stable on amd64

  20 Oct 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.1-r1.ebuild,
  perl-5.8.1-r2.ebuild:
  Changed how h2ph grabs its list of files; relying on h2ph to efficiently
  recurse was resulting a looping condition when there is a symlink in
  /usr/include/* (libxml was the sample case - thanks DarkSpecter!). Using find
  isolates the list to only .h files.

  14 Oct 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.1-r2.ebuild:
  Allow building even when db-1 is not present, but let ndbm_file use it if it's
  there

*perl-5.8.1-r2 (02 Oct 2003)

  16 Jul 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r12.ebuild, perl-5.8.1_rc1.ebuild:
  Add portage depend on version that fixes bug 23546, so the blocking depends
  will be guaranteed to work even if people are upgrading

  15 Jul 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r12.ebuild, perl-5.8.1_rc1.ebuild:

  0.84 doesn't fall through the cracks

  26 Jun 2003; <rac@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r12.ebuild:

  Added hppa to keywords.

*perl-5.8.0-r9 (15 Jan 2003)

  23 Feb 2003; Guy Martin <gmsoft@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r9.ebuild :

  Added arm to keywords.

  10 Feb 2003; Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> *.ebuild :

  removed old and crusty ebuilds, there were just way too many in here.
  Also, changed sed statements to use : instead of /

  05 Feb 2003; J Robert Ray <jrray@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r9.ebuild; Changed to strip
  "-malign-double" from CFLAGS, fixing bug 14608.

  17 Jan 2003;Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r9;

  Another blundered typo. The flag-o-matic include had a "0" instead of a "O"

  16 Jan 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r9;

  Typo fix, this one in an einfo.
  Incorporate flag-o-matic per bug 13952 - the -Os flag doesn't work with perl

  15 Jan 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r9;

  Major typo corrections that affected the placement of scripts and the man
  pages. There was a typo introduced into the 5.8 ebuilds early on that was
  not caught until now that left the location of the man pages blank and that 
  misset the /usr call for scripts placement from perl modules. This was caught
  in bugs 13886 and 13920

  15 Jan 2003; J Robert Ray <jrray@gentoo.org> libperl_rebuilder : Fixed
  unfortunate typo.

*perl-5.8.0-r8 (06 Jan 2003)

  12 Jan 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8,
  libperl_rebuilder:
  
  ebuild - Put a sleep where we had one in the else block so that there is a
  pause before emerging (notice regarding threads). Added a sleep at the tail
  end of the ebuild so that there is a pause for folks doing an emerge -u world
  so that they at leat have an opportunity to see the notice.
  libperl_rebuilder - Removed the unmerge section, that's really overkill for
  our needs and only complicates things. Added new syntax to check for files
  installed into /usr/lib/perl* that weren't picked up previously. Changed the
  name of the log file to perl-update.log (makes more sense ;) ) Added mask
  check earlier in the sanity phase.

  08 Jan 2003; Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8.ebuild :

  Unmasked for sparc.

  08 Jan 2003; Brandon Low <lostlogic@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8:
  Later that day:  dosed smells funny, switch some of it
  to use just sed and a for loop, this smells better
  to me, and fixed the problems I was having with
  ${D} staying in the files.

  08 Jan 2003; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8:
  Remove  a wild 'test' from comments =)

  08 Jan 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8:
  Unmasking for x86.

  08 Jan 2003; Brandon Low <lostlogic@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8:
  Updated ewarn at the top so that it makes sense (was telling a user
  they could use threads when they already were)

  06 Jan 2003; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r8:
  Updated einfo, added libperl ebuild. I've placed the libperl rebuilder
  in the filesdir and added a note about it to the pkg_postinstall. Thanks
  go to Azarah for the new set of ebuilds.

  03 Jan 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> perl-5.6.1-r10:
  small fix to regex of x2p/makefile - cp'ied the process further down the
  ebuild since this is rebuilt at each stage. This is for gcc-3.2 users 
  in particular and should take care of bug 12853
  
  27 Dec 2002;  Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r7.ebuild:
   
  Added depend for automake

  27 Dec 2002;  Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>

*perl-5.8.0-r7 (22 Dec 2002)

  22 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r7.ebuild:

  PLEASE READ. There was a problem introduced for non threaded perl
  5.8's - a correction introduced earlier for threaded perls was adding
  -thread to the name of your arch. THIS CAUSES PROBLEMS FOR SOME
  MODULES. For instance, the DBI module checks to see what the name of
  your Config.pm has listed for $Config{archname} - if it had thread in
  it *anywhere*, it assumed you had threading enabled, but since your
  perl was failing to use threads, would fail. This will version of the
  ebuild will correct that. You will need to re-emerge modules installed
  with perl 5.8. A tool for this is forthcoming.
    
  
  20 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r6.ebuild:
  
  Finished what Lostlogic started - finished path corrections for
  threading vs unthreaded perl 5.8
  
  20 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.6.1-r10.ebuild:

  new ebuild confirmed by arch devs - Gerk did ppc, Alron did sparc

*perl-5.6.1-r10 (19 Dec 2002)

  07 Feb 2003; Guy Martin <gmsoft@gentoo.org> perl-5.6.1-r9.ebuild perl-5.6.1-r10.ebuild :

  19 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.6.1-r10.ebuild:

  Contains patch for safe.pm - security bug, see bug 12190.

  19 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r6.ebuild:

  Same name, different ebuild. This is for the safe.pm fix.

*perl-5.8.0-r6 (17 Dec 2002)

  17 Dec 2002; Brandon Low <lostlogic@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r6.ebuild :
  -arch this bad boy, it reb0rk what I unb0rk last night, stick with -r5
  will probably skip -r6 for the moment and go to -r7 with some more 
  fixage when we know what to refix more :)

  17 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r6.ebuild:

  Further fixes to path writing. If the user asks for threading, the
  dirs are $[arch]-linux-thread-multi. If not, the paths are
  $[arch]-linux - this is correct behaviour!! Installation with
  threading is *not* supported by all apps that dep perl.

*perl-5.8.0-r5 (17 Dec 2002)

  17 Dec 2002; Brandon Low <lostlogic@gentoo.org> perl-5.8.0-r5.ebuild:

  Fix threading use flag thingus, it doesn't put things in ${D}/${D} later 
  now.  Fix messages to only display if needed.  You will need to remerge
  all your perl modules after you install this with threads.

*perl-5.8.0-r4 (15 Dec 2002)

  15 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r4.ebuild:

  Made threading an internal use flag. This is to be used with caution.
  Added eerror messages to warn users of potential probs.

  13 Dec 2002; Martin Schlemmer <azarah@gentoo.org> perl-5.6.1-r9.ebuild :

  Fix screwup in DEPEND, RDEPEND and PDEPEND.

  12 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.6.1-r9.ebuild:

  PDEPEND is in portage now, can unmask this. This -r installs the
  makemaker fix after installing perl - finally fixed. Thanks carpaski!

  11 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r3.ebuild:

  Busy day =:) Added LC_ALL=C into 5.8 (a fix made for 5.6.1, but lost)

  11 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.8.0-r3.ebuild:

  Changed emake back to make. bcowan pointed out that the parallel
  make fails for him, which is legit
  
  11 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> 
  perl-5.6.1-r9.ebuild:

  Pulled until PDEPEND is in. This worked only for those not behind
  firewalls, and unfortunately perl needs to work across the board.

*perl-5.6.1-r9 (10 Dec 2002)

  10 Dec 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>
  perl-5.6.1-r9.ebuild:

  Major fixes, including the inclusion of the ExtUtils-MakeMaker fix
  directly into perl's ebuild (thanks seemant!).
  
* Autoupdate keywords (12-6-02)
  06 Dec 2002; Rodney Rees <manson@gentoo.org> : changed sparc ~sparc keywords
 
  26 Nov 2002; Michael Cummings <mcummings@gentoo.org>:

  Corrected deps in perl-5.6.1-r8 per bugs 4116 and 9314

*perl-5.6.1-r8 (13 Oct 2002)

  22 Nov 2002; <mcummings@gentoo.org>

  Added einfo note (finally) to instruct users to install MakeMaker
  patch. Also added catch for cases where -gdbm and -berkdb are in 
  the use flags - perl requires at least one of them to be available

  Second incantation of -r8. This time, it is for LC_ALL=C being added to 
  the ebuild itself. Perl won't compile correctly otherwise and handles
  internationaliztion post install.

  13 Oct 2002; Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> perl-5.6.1-r8.ebuild
  files/digest-perl-5.6.1-r8 :

  The fixes from -r7 didn't seem to make it into portage. So this version
  has those, plus the updated MakeMaker.  should close bug #8998 by
  rac@intrigue.com (Robert Coie)

*perl-5.6.1-r7 (02 Oct 2002)

  02 Oct 2002; mcummings <mcummings@gentoo.org> : Thanks entirely to seemant,

  files/digest-perl-5.6.1-r4 :

  Added an eclass called perl-post.eclass, which this ebuild now inherits,

  21 Mar 2002; Seemant Kulleen <seemant@gentoo.org> perl-5.6.1-r3.ebuild :

  absolutely necessary, I don't think.  Thanks to stefan@mdy.univie.ac.at
  for pointing it out.

  Added initial ChangeLog which should be updated whenever the package is
  updated in any way. This changelog is targetted to users. This means that the
  comments should well explained and written in clean English. The details about
  writing correct changelogs are explained in the skel.ChangeLog file which you
  can find in the root directory of the portage repository.
