in reply to Exception::Lite not on CPAN?

I cannot install Exception::Lite with cpan either (I'm on perl 5.12.2):
cpan Exception::Lite ... Warning: Cannot install Exception::Lite, don't know what it is.

Metacpan cannot find it either: https://metacpan.org/search?q=Exception%3A%3ALite

search.cpan.org shows it as a ** DEVELOPER RELEASE ** (could that be an issue?)

Update: nevermind. In the meantime, you could try downloading the tar file and installing, and submit an RT bug.

    Yes, it's because there have been only dev releases. Supply a qualified name:

    cpan ELISHEVA/Exception-Lite-0.999_004.tar.gz

    cpanminus, as usual, comes out on top. :)

    cpanm --dev Exception::Lite
