3. Information about the perl-Parse-Distname package on openSUSE Leap

Information for package perl-Parse-Distname:
--------------------------------------------
Repository : Main Repository
Name : perl-Parse-Distname
Version : 0.05-bp155.1.4
Arch : noarch
Vendor : openSUSE
Installed Size : 31.9 KiB
Installed : No
Status : not installed
Source package : perl-Parse-Distname-0.05-bp155.1.4.src
Upstream URL : https://metacpan.org/release/Parse-Distname
Summary : Parse a distribution name
Description :
Parse::Distname is yet another distribution name parser. It works almost
the same as CPAN::DistnameInfo, but Parse::Distname takes a different
approach. It tries to extract a version part of a distribution and treat
the rest as a distribution name, contrary to CPAN::DistnameInfo which tries
to define a name part and treat the rest as a version.
Because of this difference, when Parse::Distname parses a weird
distribution name such as "AUTHOR/v1.0.tar.gz", it says the name is empty
and the version is "v1.0", while CPAN::DistnameInfo says the name is "v"
and the version is "1.0". See test files in this distribution if you need
more details. As of this writing, Parse::Distname returns a different
result for about 200+ distributions among about 320000 BackPan
distributions.
