If I want to install a Perl module I have to look up which package

CSWpmcfgaug. We could also have special variables in the pkginfo
which must then find their way to the package database somehow, like
PERL_MODULE_NAME=Config::Augeas
That's why the description seemsed easiest.
I think that the special variable may be the best approach; some of
those CPAN paths are ludicrously long, and would then obscure a
meaningful description field.
Ok then. The "upstream name" will then become field no. 9 in the catalog
(that's what I meant with package database). It is imperative to have
this
information available easily on package installation.
Best regards
