Fixing bugs in single files, I would like to upload just that file to CPAN. I tried tarring and zipping 2 files and uploaded them to a subdirectory I created that I thought would correspond to the one they are in when they are installed.
But browsing my files I see only readme, meta and tar.gzed files. Which makes sense of course. I think there are some things I don't undersntand about CPAN yet. Is this impossibility (?) of partial upgrading a reason to not having monolithic functionality in a distribution, but rather to try for minimal functionality? Or is there are tradeoff? What is the right approach to modular module sets on CPAN?
