IMO it *must not* delete files installed by dpkg, and I think the description is quite clear: "modules installed from CPAN", not "from the Debian archive" just like e.g. cpanminus, CPANPLUS, cpan do not install Debian packages. But maybe a note in the manpage would help? Cheers -- perl -E '$_=q;$/= @{[@_]};and s;\S+;<inidehG ordnasselA>;eg;say~~reverse'
