Subject: Advice about https now incorrect
When https support is missing, Metabase::Client::Simple tells the user "Scheme 'https' is not supported by your LWP::UserAgent. You must install Crypt::SSLeay or IO::Socket::SSL or use http instead." This is no longer correct as of LWP 6.02. LWP::Protocol::https has been unbundled from LWP to make it easier to depend on https, so the proper procedure for LWP 6.02 and up is to install LWP::Protocol::https and it'll take care of the crypto stuff. Query the version of LWP and issue the correct response for that version. Patch forthcoming.
I ran into this issue as well when I tried to set up CPAN::Reporter. Can you please apply Schern's fix and release a new version? -- Mike
new release should fix this
