[ANNOUNCE] ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.30_04: msg#00020

Subject: [ANNOUNCE] ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.30_04
Getting towards a release.  There's one more bug I want to take care of before 
6.31 and that's rt.cpan.org 17224 to fix PDL.  It requires I have a Windows 
machine.  I won't have access until next week.

This releases fixes the handling of PM overrides broken in 6.30_01 (which fixes 
most of brian d foy's modules), documenting INSTALL_BASE and adding a few long 
overdue FAQ entries on basic module installation.

6.30_04  Mon Sep 11 16:14:06 EDT 2006
   - EXTRA_META has been undocumented as I don't like the way the
     interface works but I don't want to hold up 6.31.  It will be
     replaced with something better next version.
   - Added explaination of distclean behavior and instructions on how to
     blow away anything not in the MANIFEST to the FAQ.
   * 6.30_01 broke overrides of PM.  MakeMaker would add to a user
     suplied PM rather than simply accepting it.
   * Document INSTALL_BASE.
   * Added "How do I install a module into my home directory?" to the FAQ
   * Added "How do I get MakeMaker and Module::Build to install to the
     same place?"
   - Moving ExtUtils::Mksymlists and ExtUtils::Mkbootstrap back into
     lib/ because no independent distribution has taken them over.

6.30_03  Fri Sep  1 17:03:11 EDT 2006
   - Minor fix to Command.t for Win32.
