In using FreeBSD's ports and packages system I have suddenly noticed a lot of things missing from CPAN.

Or maybe I just don't know enough.

Specifically it would be nice:

• To get a list of the CPAN modules installed.
• To get a list of the files that have been installed by a given CPAN module.
• To get a list of which installed CPAN modules depend on which other installed CPAN modules.
• To be able to deinstall a CPAN module.

...with as much ease as typing info *, file_list Foo::Bar, dependancies Foo::Bar or deinstall Foo::Bar respectively at the cpan prompt.
