Subject: Deploy error checking
Today I had issue when LWP and IO::Socket::SSL - it was not verifying SSL Hostnames. (LWP 6.04 + IO::Socket::SSL 1.8) re-installing LWP::UserAgent (using cpan/cpanp) and IO::Socket::SSL was not helpful. I fixed it by re-installing LWP::Protocol::https I think such issue can be avoided by checking LWP::Protocol::https->VERSION() and/or by improving CPAN packages dependency list.

Steps to reproduce: Uninstall LWP::UserAgent using CPANPlus (after that I still have libwww-perl / perl-libwww-perl OS package installed - on Ubuntu 10.04 or Centos 5.x, but version 5.x) Install LWP::Protocol::https using CPAN or CPANPlust both CPAN and CPAN plus won't install LWP::UserAgent 6.x again And we'll have broken installation.
