About perl modules etc. xterminus did a script for building CPAN modules automatically and even setup a repo for them (managed automatically too). He is inactive now and thus a move of those packages to community didn't happen. I think we should contact him again about the status of that work. AUR has a ton of perl-blah-blah-blah packages, that could be better managed with that tool. -- Roman Kyrylych (Роман Кирилич) _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
