Hi all, |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
before we even start implementing EAPI=6 stuff, Perl support will be |
| 8 |
reorganized a little bit. |
| 9 |
|
| 10 |
TL;DR: No need to do anything. :) |
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
Longer version: |
| 13 |
We're going to split all helper functions out of perl-module.eclass into a new |
| 14 |
eclass, perl-functions.eclass. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
* perl-functions will export no phases and keep all global variable meddling |
| 17 |
to a minimum. If you need perl support in a package that has a non-perl build |
| 18 |
system, this is what you may want to use in the future to get some helpers. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
* perl-module.eclass will inherit perl-functions, and all things exported by |
| 21 |
perl-functions are explicitly also part of the API of perl-module (documented |
| 22 |
in the eclass), so you dont have to explicitly inherit perl-functions in your |
| 23 |
ebuild as well. perl-module.eclass is the "ready-made solution for CPAN", |
| 24 |
exporting all required phases. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
We are only splitting the code into two parts now, but not really changing |
| 27 |
anything. So, because of abovementioned inheritance all ebuilds should just |
| 28 |
keep working as usual. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Some changes will come later with the introduction of EAPI=6 support. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
(Boring) Patch attached for completeness. |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Cheers, |
| 35 |
