Subject: Invalid version for one module stops all processing
The current popular method for updating all modules is to use this from cron: cpan-outdated | xargs cpanm But if a single module has a version problem, it stops all processing, even unrelated modules. Other build problems are skipped over successfuly. The current example is Debug::ShowStuff, which specified an invalid version of Scalar::Util: Checking if you have Debug::ShowStuff 1.1 ... No ==> Found dependencies: Debug::ShowStuff Searching Debug::ShowStuff on cpanmetadb ... --> Working on Debug::ShowStuff Fetching http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/M/MI/MIKO/Debug-ShowStuff-1.12.tar.gz ...

Won't fix. Also, Devel::ShowStuff installs fine for me. If there's a specific problem which can be fixed open another bug for it.
