- Last shipped in 2005 - Broke when Perl 5.18 shipped ( bug #483812 ) - Was worked around by a dep on Module::Install - Upstream still unheard from on this breakage - Now has no revdeps - Keeping Module::Install around and requiring a lot of keywords - Has no real use as far as I can make out So yeah. I want to kill it. Somebody convince me not to.
