Branch: CURRENT, Version: 4.0.4, Package name: p5-FindBin-libs-4.0.4, Maintainer: schmonz

An all-too-common occurrance managing perly projects is being unable
to install new modules becuse "it might break things", and being
unable to test them because you can't install them. The usual outcome
of this is a collection of hard-coded

use lib qw( /usr/local/projectX ... )

code at the top of each #! file that has to be updated by hand for
each new project.

To get away from this you'll often see relative paths for the lib's,
which require running the code from one specific place. All this
does is push the hard-coding into cron, shell wrappers, and begin
blocks.

With FindBin::libs you need suffer no more.

Log message:
*: recursive bump for perl 5.38
   2022-09-17 14:15:01 by Amitai Schleier | Files touched by this commit (2) 
Log message:
Update to 3.0.2. From the changelog:

Bin=X uses dirname( X ) if X is a file, otherwise if X is
a dir it uses X, otherwise it dies. This mainly simplifies
testing where libs or config dirs are below the ./t in the
path.

*: recursive bump for perl 5.36
   2022-02-25 20:17:15 by Amitai Schleier | Files touched by this commit (2) 
Log message:
Update to 3.0.1. From the changelog:

- Remove extraneous breakpoints

- Rewrite the search to use a saner, multi-stage
  process. Still uses abs_path to avoid duplicates
  working up the stack due to multi-level symlinks,
  skips things earlier in the process & is a bit
  easier to read.

- noignore is handled properly, as is ignore=

- taint extraction on $Bin uses m{^ (.+) /? }x
  to strip the trailing '/' in some RHEL versions
  of catpath.

   2021-04-28 17:02:39 by Amitai Schleier | Files touched by this commit (2) 
Log message:
Update to 2.21.0. From the changelog:

- Minor change in taint extraction: Check for non-whitespace in library
  path after m{ (.+) }x, remove 's' in regex to avoid issues with paths
  including embedded newlines. Up the minor number: if anyone really
  does depend on locating all-whitespace paths or ones with embedded
  newlines warn me.
