Nice thought, but that appears to be related to prefering tar/gzip... to Archive::../Compress::... not wget	[reply]

If you look into source of CPANPLUS::Internals::Fetch you will see that it sets `$File::Fetch::PREFER_BIN` depending on value of `prefer_bin`. Unfortunately after looking into File::Fetch source I see that this is TODO variable and is not actually used. Well, you just need to implement this functionality in File::Fetch ;)	[reply] [d/l] [select]
