Try the command i /Calendar/ to find objects with matching identifiers. cpan[2]> -------------------------------------------------------------- "Calendar" module is missing in CPAN Module index ( http://cpan.org/modules/01modules.index.html ) What's the problem? you had changed version numeric(alpha)version to Extended version. 0.04 -> v0.4.1 -> v0.4.2 Equivalent extended version of numerical version 0.04 is v0.40 So, your updated modules are lower version than old numeric version modules. I guess Missing in CPAN index maybe caused by version numbering. Check it out, please.

You are right, 0.4.2 is numerically converted to 0.004002. Not ethat CPAN shell provides a workaround. When you know the distro name, and you can find it out with ls when you know the author name, then you'd do install YEWENBIN/Calendar-v0.4.2.tar.gz And the ls command would be something like: ls YEWENBIN/Cal* HTH,

Sorry, I have asked the question at #perl in irc.perl.org, I was told that my module's name is not accepted. I haven't figure out a proper name, and also don't known how to move the module to another name space, so I gave it up. I did not expect for this reason I have receive the mail that my module is scheduled for reindexing, is that means I don't have to change the version?

This issue came again up today in #perl on Freenode. The workaround I suggested (which works for me), is to manually fetch and unpack the tarball, then "cpan ." within that directory. Perhaps you could bump the version and release a new version to CPAN with whatever fixes are required to make this work correctly? -- Paul Evans

I think the module was not indexed because I didn't register the namespace successfully, because Calendar is the root namespace. I have rename the module name to Calendar::Any with slight modification in api. You can install the new module now :)
