Hi all,
while I was browsing CPAN I found Sys::UniqueID which I think should be
removed from CPAN for several reasons:
1. It doesn't compile (hostip isn't exported by Sys::HostIP
2. It doesn't do what it says in the docs, even when I replaced hostip
with ip it didn't work (returns empty string)
3. Author's email address is dead.||
4. No updates since 2000 (not a problem by itself, but see 1 and 2)
Given there's Data::UUID which is a better alternative (even to working
Sys::UniqueID) I think it's reasonable to remove Sys::UniqueID from CPAN.
If removal isn't possible is there any other mechanism (forced
depreciation?) that can be used?
