I'd blame the immediate symptoms, as seen with CPAN.pm, on <http://www.cpan.org/modules/02packages.details.txt.gz>, which, AFAIK, counts as the reference database for CPAN.pm, and similar scripts. The entry for DBD::File there still reads: DBD::File 0.1023 J/JW/JWIED/DBD-CSV-0.1030.tar.gz which is not quite right, is it? -- Bart.
