On 20 Jan 2005, Daniel Quinlan whispered secretively: > How do you remove a package installed with CPAN, anyway?
Generate an autobundle, edit it, `rm -rf' your site-perl directory, and reinstall the autobundle. (Yes, it's a sick half-witted kludge.) > And how do you > remove old turds from old CPAN packages you've upgraded via CPAN? The same hideous way --- well, the UNINST=1 parameter is meant to ditch dead no-longer-relevant gunge, but doesn't do a perfect job. But, yes, CPAN is all very well but not exactly ideal. (Let's not even talk about CPANPLUS, the worst forgetter of its own settings I've ever seen.) -- `Blish is clearly in love with language.
