-------------------- From the release notes ------------------------
* integrate release 1.5 of brian's cpan script from
http://sourceforge.net/projects/brian-d-foy/
* Support for Module::Build: to set the preference for
Module::Build over MakeMaker, run
o conf prefer_installer MB
o conf commit
* ls command supports globbing; these work nicely:
ls KWILLIAMS/P*
ls JV/make*
this works too but is slow:
ls */*make*
* META.yml data replace the Makefile parsing code if YAML
available (compensating for the frequent wrong usage of the
requires element)
* support SHA256; stop using MD5
* support bzip2 compression; can be tested with 'install
ARTURAZ/Net-Vypress-Chat-0.72.1.tar.bz2'; the CPAN indexer does
not yet index bz2 distros but will probably start to do so as soon
as CPANPLUS supports bzip2
* tiny tweaks to make CPAN.pm run on a busybox (Guillaume Filion)
* bugfix: major speedup on all commands that need expansion of
regular expressions to module names
* prettier r command output: the 4th column of the 'r' command
drops the redundant X/XX/ prefix
* tolerant when you type one colon instead of two on module names
