I have a local MINICPAN repository, but I want to remove a specific version of a module, and inject an older version.
This is the steps I've taken.
- create the MINICPAN, not filtering any modules - use mcpani --add for the module in question - use mcpani --inject
At this point, I can see in the MINICPAN that it has both the version I want, and the newer version, if I issue install in cpan, then the newer version of the module is install. How can I get rid of the newer version from my minicpan, without starting again and using filters. Note: Repost from stackoverflow, thought there might be more response here.
