This is because perl-libwww only provides libwww-perl in the PKGBUILD when in it actually provides over 50 modules/packages. I'll open a ticket on the bug tracker and then take care of the listed pacakges in the AUR. I'll post any updates here. Perhaps this would be a good opportunity to ask everyone packaging CPAN modules to at least look at the provides string generated by pacpan. It cross-references all names with their associated source files to generate a comprehensive list. Regards, Xyne
