Observe the following typescript from a Gentoo Linux system. The
module encode is currently at version 2.12, and I would like to
upgrade it to the current CPAN version, which is 2.35. But when I try
to do that, CPAN cannot find the module. This happens on a number of
others as well, all of them unqualified so far (no '::' in the names).
What gives?
cpan[2]> m Encode
Module id = Encode
