Summary : Parse a distribution name
URL : https://metacpan.org/dist/Parse-Distname
License : GPL+ or Artistic
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 the 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.
