romandas has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I installed Strawberry Perl on a new XP workstation and tried to upgrade one of the modules that came with it, specifically DBM::Deep. The version installed is 1.0013, but I know that 1.0014 was released by rkinyon, so I'd like to upgrade to that. However, the latest version cpan finds is 1.0016.

Is there a way to have cpan upgrade by one version level? I'm not asking out of any affinity for 1.0014; I'm just curious if it can be done -- I couldn't find a way via cpan.
