Subject: doc bugs
Date: Wed, 9 Jan 2013 18:02:48 +0000
To: bug-CPAN [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Zefram <zefram [...] fysh.org>
The cpan(1) doc has a description of an output format, "This prints one line for each out-of-date module ...", in the documentation of the -D option, but it is not the format of the -D output. It is actually describing the -O output. The CPAN(3) doc, in the distroprefs "Language Specs" section, describing the "match" part of a prefs hash, says the key "modules" is used. The key is actually "module", as seen in other parts of the same doc. -zefram
Thanks, CPAN.pm is patched in the repo for the s/modules/module/ bug. Will change the queue to App::Cpan for cpan(1).
brian, I see that this doc bug is still present in 0.60_01.
