Please, review the perl guideliness and explain why is this ebuild needed in portage. Thanks.

Comment 4 Jeff Kowalczyk 2006-01-21 11:26:53 UTC

Apologies, I had never heard of g-cpan, although it makes complete sense to have such a tool instead of thousands of perl ebuilds. I have no reason to doubt that this ebuild would work with g-cpan, will investigate. Closing bug for now.
