Is it needed for some application in the portage tree? Otherwise, you can just use  /usr/bin/g-cpan.pl to emerge it.

See Jacub's comment abovem -- that's our policy for perl ebuilds

Comment 4 seather 2005-04-30 10:58:19 UTC

A lot of weather-based applications use it, I looked through bugs.gentoo and there is quite a lot of request for weather based apps.

We still need more to go on than that. dev-perl is already unmanageable - I know I don't want to add another orphaned package.

Marking invalid until its demonstrated that this package would meet any of our 
policy requirements for adding new packages.
