Hi,

I would like to understand why I could not install Fuse via cpan nor via cpanm (I suceeded in installing it manually):

> cpan Fuse

Warning: Cannot install Fuse, don't know what it is.
Try the command

    i /Fuse/

to find objects with matching identifiers.

It is the first module in a long time that failed to install via the cpan-shell. And cpanm (that I have little experience with) seems to use a wrong url.

Please enlighten me what I would need to do to fix this.
