One of the things which has gradually begun to upset me while
reworking the perl modules is that we head each module's section
using the form of the name with double-colons, but then follow it
with the version number, e.g. DateTime::Locale-1.22 instead of
DateTime-Locale-1.22.
Looking at the museum, this seems to have been introduced before
BLFS-6.0. In the BLFS-5 books there, modules are listed with
dashes. For headings within the module, double colons look correct,
e.g. Introduction to DateTime::Locale, DateTime::Locale Dependencies
etc.
But I now feel that using :: with -N.NN looks plain wrong.
In the branch, links to dependencies, and to the section from
longindex, now use dashes.
Opinions, please.
When installing or updating from the book using the cpan method, I use:
cpan -i <paste from book>
so I would like to have the DateTime::Locale form listed in the book.
