Hi all,

I've been working on updating the Perl Modules page. I really like how all
the dependency links now point at a page where you can download the current
version of the package instead of hard-coding a version into the BLFS
instructions.

This makes the upkeep of the Perl Modules page much more simple. I cannot
see a reason why we do not point all Perl Modules to a development page where
you can download it. This would make a zero maintenance environment for the
Perl Modules from an editor standpoint. There really is no reason to hard code
version numbers into the BLFS Perl Module instructions any longer now that
individual pages exist on CPAN for each module.

I would like to get rid of hard-coding version numbers for *all* Perl modules.
It would be an easy task to do this. And then the BLFS editor staff never has
to worry about updating the page or keeping links on Anduin current. It seems
win-win to me.

Thoughts?
