[Melbourne-pm] Fwd: Goddamnit, CPAN authors, why?!

[Mithun Radhakrishnan]

It is still there in cpanm. Please try as below.

http://search.*cpan*.org/~drsteve/Crypt-Password-0.28/lib/Crypt/Password.pm
Just replace the above URL with mcpan instead of cpan like below and I was
able to find that module in cpan.
http://search.*mcpan*.org/~drsteve/Crypt-Password-0.28/lib/Crypt/Password.pm
This will get redirect to the below URL.
https://metacpan.org/pod/release/DRSTEVE/Crypt-Password-0.28/lib/Crypt/Password.pm

​But when we search the module in mcpan it is not showing up.

​Regards
Mithun​
