Not necessarily need for the key to the metabase, the path is just
another attribute or fact.

Note there are a couple of bugs in Parse::BACKPAN::Packages that mean it
doesn't return the true author of a distribution. Where author is
actually the release manager, where some distributions have more than
one author (e.g. Catalyst). I have parts of patches waiting in the wings
that I need to push to Leon soon.
