Subject: modules marked as UNAUTHORIZED
Please see https://metacpan.org/release/LNATION/Mxpress-PDF-0.19 : MooX::Press* and Zydeco are marked as unauthorized. Bundling somebody else's modules is not a good idea and may cause version & compatibility problems on user's perl installations.

One of the possible problems: CPAN.pm might (rightly!) refuse to install the module because there's already a newer Zydeco installed: Testing/Installation stopped: allow_installing_module_downgrades: LNATION/Mxpress-PDF-0.20.tar.gz (called for L/LN/LNATION/Mxpress-PDF-0.20.tar.gz) contains downgrading module(s) (e.g. 'Zydeco.pm' would downgrade installed '0.511' to '0.508')
