I've playing with some perl modules a few days, and found some obsolete information in cpan.port.mk and port-modules.5.
"http://search.cpan.org/dist/"; should be now "https://metacpan.org/release/"; (all accesses are redirected now...) reference: Saying Goodbye to search.cpan.org (Jun 26, 2018 by Olaf Alders) https://www.perl.com/article/saying-goodbye-to-search-cpan-org/ I suppose cpan.port.mk and port-modules.5 should be updated. anyone please confirm the following diff?
