Changes in version 2.57
-----------------------
* Adapt tests for perl core, thanks to James Keenan.
Packaging changes only, no functional changes.
Changes in version 2.56
-----------------------
* Do not use Getopt::Long to establish Getopt::Long::Parser version.
Packaging changes only, no functional changes.
Changes in version 2.55
-----------------------
* Move Getopt::Long::Parser to a separate module and add
documentation. Note that Getopt::Long uses Getopt::Long::Parser, so
programs that use Getopt::Long and call the oo interface will still
work.
* Allow periods in option names, e.g. to indicate levels in a
hierarchical configuration. Since periods in option names have never
been valid, they are now allowed by default unless pass_through is
enabled.
* Fix long standing bug that duplicate options were not detected when
the options differ in case while ignore_case is in effect.
This will now yield a warning and become a fatal error in a future
release.
