in thread CPANPLUS with versioned Modules

Quoting the module doesn't fix my underlying issue, which is being able to specify a version. It does fix the problem with -1.42 being called a module.
perl -MCPANPLUS -e 'install("/P/PM/PMQS/Compress-Zlib-1.42")'
[ERROR] No such module '/P/PM/PMQS/Compress-Zlib-1.42'

perl -MCPANPLUS -e 'install("Compress-Zlib-1.42")'
[ERROR] No such module 'Compress-Zlib-1.42'

Help still desired. :)

    Going by the documentation, it looks like you need to add the extension: 
    perl -MCPANPLUS -we 'install("/P/PM/PMQS/Compress-Zlib-1.42.tar.gz")'

    but I just looked at the code, and there doesn't actually seem to be support for this at all. I suggest you file a bug.
