Subject: Misidentifies INGY/perl5-0.21.tar.gz as a perl dist
When testing perl5::i, it fails, this being the relevant part of the output: Running test for module 'perl5' The most recent version "0.21" of the module "perl5" is part of the perl-5.0.21 distribution. To install that, you need to run force install perl5 --or-- install I/IN/INGY/perl5-0.21.tar.gz perl5.pm seems like a really neat idea. It would be nice if it would install. I think the regexp in isa_perl needs to expect a hyphen after ‘perl’ unconditionally. But I don’t know for sure whether that would exclude past releases of perl.

The dash was introduced with 5.6.0. But sure, the regexp can be tweeked to help Ingy. Memo to self: perl -le ' use CPAN::Perl::Releases qw(perl_versions perl_tarballs); use File::Basename qw(basename); print basename perl_tarballs($_)->{"tar.gz"} for perl_versions; ' Thanks! -- andreas
