Hi all,
GNU Stow 2.3.1 is now available for download from=20
http://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/stow/
and also from the mirrors[1] as soon as they catch up.=20
Stow is a symlink farm manager program which takes distinct sets=20
of software and/or data located in separate directories on the=20
filesystem, and makes them all appear to be installed in a single=20
directory tree.=20
While Stow has often been used to manage system-wide software=20
installations, it also provides a clean mechanism for managing=20
software and configuration files in users' home directories:=20
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-stow/2011-12/msg00000.html
More information is available at the homepage:=20
http://www.gnu.org/software/stow/
[1] You can see a list of mirrors at http://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html
or use http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/stow/ which will automatically
redirect to a nearby mirror.
Here is a summary of the changes since the previous release;=20
please see the ChangeLog for full details.=20
* For improved ease of installation, dependencies on Hash::Merge and
Clone::Choose introduced in 2.3.0 were removed again.
Historically stow hasn't had runtime dependencies other than Perl
itself, which is a useful property if you're managing the
installation of Perl using stow. This property has now been
restored.
Many thanks to Adam Sampson for this patch!
<https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-stow/2019-06/msg00001.html>
* An issue with the test suite was fixed.
t/cli.t was not testing with the right Perl executable, as reported
here:
<https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=3D129944>
Thanks to Slaven Rezic for spotting this and reporting it!
* Various maintainer tweaks
The release process and its documentation were improved in various
minor ways.
Happy hacking,
Adam
