Subject: Changes update + marking?

From: Havard Eidnes <he [...] NetBSD.org>
Hi, I'm packaging an update of Array::Compare from 1.15 to 1.16 in NetBSD's pkgsrc. However, it's a little difficult to find out from http://search.cpan.org/src/DAVECROSS/Array-Compare-1.16/Changes which is found from http://search.cpan.org/dist/Array-Compare/ what the changes between those two release version actually consist of, mainly because the release numbers are not listed in the Changes file, and there is no recent entry in the Changes file which corresponds to the date-span between 1.15 and 1.16. It would be nice if this was fixed. Best regards, - HÃ¥vard

You're right. I'm not sure how that slipped out without an updated Changes file. I'm sorry about that. I'll make sure that the generation of the Changes file is automated in the future. You can get the differences between module versions from CPAN. See the "Other tools" link at http://search.cpan.org/dist/Array-Compare/. The differences between 1.15 and 1.16 are at: http://search.cpan.org/diff?from=Array-Compare-1.15&to=Array-Compare-1.16 As you'll see, they were all trivial changes. They were all either due to me moving the source code from cvs to svn, standardising the way my modules are set out or bumping up my CPANTS score. There's probably nothing there which justifies a new release of your package. Hope this helps, Cheers, Dave...
Fixed in 1.18.
