Subject: [ANN] Perl5.005_62 for cygwin-b20.1
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Perl5.005_62 is now available for cygwin-b20.1 on
http://cygutils.netpedia.net/.  Precompiled binary, patched source, and
the patch are all available. Also, downloadable precompiled modules for:

perl5.005_62-DBI-1.13
perl5.005_62-Data-ShowTable-3.3
perl5.005_62-DelimMatch-1.04
perl5.005_62-GDBM_File-5.00562 
perl5.005_62-Msql-Mysql-modules-1.2209
perl5.005_62-String-CRC-1.0
perl5.005_62-String-CRC32-0.9  
perl5.005_62-XML-DOM-1.25
perl5.005_62-XML-Parser-2.27

all recompiled for perl5.005_62.

This may be the last version for cygwin-b20.1. I plan to update my
system to either Cygwin v1.0 or cygwin-b21 (ie. development snapshots)
very soon. I'll keep this version available on the website for as long
as possible, to support slow migrators.

***************************
Latest version is 9 Nov 99 (-991109)

Changes (perl5.005_61-cygwinb20-991005) ---
(perl5.005_62-cygwinb20-991109)

* it's perl5.005_62 
( most of the previous cygwin-specific patch was accepted into the main
tree. A few patches were rejected because the files in question changed
dramatically; changes were no longer applicable. ) 

* new cygwin-specific patch: 
  + change "CYGWIN" pre-processor define to "__CYGWIN__" 
  + a few changes to hints/cygwin.sh in response to perl5-porters
questions

* executables and libraries are built stripped. This includes the
downloadable modules I have provided, and any modules you build
yourself. To change this behavior, edit
/usr/local/lib/perl5/5.00562/cygwin/Config.pm and remove the "-s"
options from lddlflags, ldflags, and ccdlflags. If you're building from
source and don't want stripped libs, then remove the "-s" options from
lddlflags, ldflags, and ccdlflags in <PERL-SRC>/hints/cygwin.sh.
