Mon Sep 26 14:00:00 2011 Greg.FreemyerAATTgmail.com
- update to 8.65

* /usr/bin/exiftool was previously packaged as only an application and the perl(Image::ExifTool) module was not available for use.

* Thus the standalone exiftool package has now been obsoleted

* And /usr/bin/exiftool is now included in this package as a sub-package in addition to the perl library modules

*

* A significant number of new file formats, etc. are now supported, see

* http://cpansearch.perl.org/src/EXIFTOOL/Image-ExifTool-8.65/Changes

Mon Feb 21 13:00:00 2011 Greg.FreemyerAATTgmail.com
