Updated: parrot-0.6.4-1 with parrot-perl6 and parrot-languages


Hi,

The parrot packages with libparrot0 and libparrot-devel,
plus parrot-perl6 and parrot-languages are updated to 0.6.4 for
the Cygwin distribution.

Parrot is a virtual machine designed to efficiently compile and
execute bytecode for interpreted languages.
Parrot is a target for the upcoming Perl 6 and a lot of other
languages.

Canonical homepage:
  http://www.parrotcode.org/
  The Parrot wiki is at http://www.perlfoundation.org/parrot/

Canonical download:
  http://www.parrotcode.org/release/devel

Updates appear timely every month until v1.0 at the end of this year due
to stable funding. 0.6.5 will be released on 19 Aug 2008.

Packaging Details:

* The php implementation is now called pipp.
* /usr/bin/libparrot.dll is now /usr/bin/cygparrot0_6_4.dll

To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on
the http://cygwin.com/ web page.  This downloads setup.exe to your
system.  Once you've downloaded setup.exe, run it and select "Editors"
or "Text" and then click on the appropriate fields until the above
announced version numbers appear if they are not displayed already.

If your mirror doesn't yet have the latest version of this package after
24 hours, you can either continue to wait for that site to be updated or
you can try to find another mirror.
