I get the same result as you for DBI and timb. However, these all work:

There may be something specific to Tim Bunce happening. I'll have to investigate further.

The warning is either "!!" or blank. When it's "!!" it means that Debian's package is not up to date. Yes, this probably wants to be documented. (And also the warning probably shouldn't be shown when the Debian version is "(none)".)

Update: aha! It looks like the regular expression I was using to parse the Debian package list is at fault. /^(lib\S+?-perl) \((\S+?)\)/ should be /^(lib\S+?-perl) \((\S+).*\)/. 0.004 will be released soon.

perl -E'sub Monkey::do{say$_,for@_,do{($monkey=[caller(0)]->[3])=~s{::}{ }and$monkey}}"Monkey say"->Monkey::do'

    I just used DBI and timb as an example. I actually tried loads of modules and cpan users which didn't seem to produce any results e.g., DBIx-Log4perl, DBD-ODBC, mjevans which are the obvious ones (me) but as you say some work e.g., DBD-Oracle.

    I also sometimes get failures:

    $ p5u testers DBD::ODBC
Failed to retrieve URI http://www.cpantesters.org/distro/D/DBD-ODBC.js
+on
martin@bragi:~$ p5u testers DBD::ODBC
CPAN Testers results for DBD-ODBC version 1.38_3

                                  PASS  FAIL   ETC

Perl 5.014                           2     0     0

    but they could be something here so I will look into that.

    0.004 fixed the problem I found - thanks for the update.
