Subject: uninitialized value error w/ -g option
I'm seeing the following error: $ cpan -g local::lib Use of uninitialized value $description in concatenation (.) or string at [...]/lib/5.16.3/App/Cpan.pm line 440. Which seems to be due to an omission in line 432 to extract the description: 430 my( $sub, $takes_args, $description ) = 431 map { $Method_table{$option}[ $Method_table_index{$_} ] } 432 qw( code takes_args ); Appending 'description' to the arguments to map seems to solve the problem.

This is fixed in App::CPAN 1.61_02, which I will upload shortly.
That fixed it. Thanks!
