Need Help??

in thread CPAN::Mini on a diet

It seems all good when compared... the files I looking for to remove (on my local mirror) where removed more than a week ago...

Thinking better now, this mirror was created initially from http://linorg.usp.br/CPAN, which is not being updated frequently... but that doesn't explain why I had files over my (local) directory that are not available on the mirrors, unless there is a problem with linorg.usp.br.

Forgot to mention that I used perlbrew to install a new perl and CPAN::Mini over it. Not sure if that changes the perspective

Hi,

Because you're dealing with perlbrew I'd check to make sure there isn't more than one configuration for minicpan , just in case (I dont expect one to exist)

I'd would also increase debugging/logging/verbosity level in the configuration

And report this problem to the developer as it sounds important

You might want to also try CPAN::Mini::NoLargeFiles - Create a CPAN mirror excluding files that are too large

as Lingua-EN-SENNA is 185MB and perl source distributions are +10MB
