Thanks, but is there any documentation though? I first heard of this utility on this list and it seems to be part of gentoo, but is a total mystery. e.g. can it do the same things as "perl -MCPAN"? where does it create its ebuilds?(I cannot find any of the few modules I installed using this) and so on. Looks like I'll have to spend time sifting the source!
