in reply to CPAN::Mini on a diet

Hi,

How long have you had this minicpan repository? Do you have skip_cleanup turned on?

What is your ID?

Check the indexes (02packages.details.txt.gz or 03modlist.data.gz) they can get wonky sometimes ( CPAN not indexing?)

    Answering your questions in order:

    1. About a week, no more than that.
    2. Nope, below is the config I'm using.
    3. ARFREITAS
    4. Based on values available on the SQLite DB and the files available on the minicpan mirror, it is OK.
    -bash-4.3$ cat .minicpanrc
local: /minicpan
remote: http://mirror.nbtelecom.com.br/CPAN
exact_mirror: 1
also_mirror: indices/find-ls.gz

        It seems all good when compared... the files I looking for to remove (on my local mirror) where removed more than a week ago...

        Thinking better now, this mirror was created initially from http://linorg.usp.br/CPAN, which is not being updated frequently... but that doesn't explain why I had files over my (local) directory that are not available on the mirrors, unless there is a problem with linorg.usp.br.

        Forgot to mention that I used perlbrew to install a new perl and CPAN::Mini over it. Not sure if that changes the perspective
