Summary : Extract distribution name and version from a distribution filename
URL : http://search.cpan.org/dist/CPAN-DistnameInfo/
License : GPL+ or Artistic
Description : Many online services that are centered around CPAN attempt to
: associate multiple uploads by extracting a distribution name from the
: filename of the upload. For most distributions this is easy as they
: have used ExtUtils::MakeMaker or Module::Build to create the
: distribution, which results in a uniform name. But sadly not all
: uploads are created in this way.
:
: CPAN::DistnameInfo uses heuristics that have been learnt by
: http://search.cpan.org/ to extract the distribution name and version
: from filenames and also report if the version is to be treated as a
: developer release.
