    • Support version range with "~", such as cpanm DBI~">= 1.0, < 2.0"
    • Enable metacpan release search when exact version is given (and when mirror-only is not specified) i.e. cpanm DBI@1.100 will fetch the exact release based on metacpan

Changes for version 1.59_01 - 2013-01-31

  • New Features
    • Added a proper support for version range in MYMETA files using CPAN::Meta::Requirements
    • Skip installing modules when found versions from CPAN doesn't satisfy the requirement, rather than proceeding as if it is ok. For instnacde, if a ditribution X requires Y >= 1.1 and Y on CPAN (or your CPAN mirror) has 1.0, cpanm will just complain and stop installing it.
    • Better cpanfile end-to-end support
    • Upgraded fatpacked modules to the latest
