+MetaCPAN-API has been deprecated upstream since April 2014, with
+MetaCPAN-Client being the preferred replacement.
+
+In June 2017, the v0 MetaCPAN API as used by this package ceased being
+supported on the site. Upstream released version 0.51, which supports
+the new v1 MetaCPAN API, but which also requires new dependencies Moo,
+strictures and Type-Tiny that are not currently in EPEL-7. Whilst it's
+possible to bring these into EPEL-7, it would be better (particularly for
+Moo and Type-Tiny) if they were maintained by someone that really cared
+about them rather than by someone that just needs them as a dependency
+for a package that's deprecated anyway.
+
+So, given that there are no users of this deprecated package in EPEL-7,
+and it no longer works as-is, I have decided to retire it from EPEL.
