7 I wasn't sure the /site/ thing worked everywhere so i chose some
8 random packages in CPAN and tried. The victim are DBM-DBass and
9 DBD-mysql.
10
11 http://search.cpan.org/~spiderboy/DBM-DBass-0.54/ => exists
12 http://search.cpan.org/site/DBM-DBass-0.54/ => Internal Server Error
13
14 http://search.cpan.org/~capttofu/DBD-mysql-3.0006/ => exists
15 http://search.cpan.org/site/DBD-mysql-3.0006/ => 500
16
17 and even without versionning :
18
19 http://search.cpan.org/~capttofu/DBD-mysql/ => exists
20 http://search.cpan.org/site/DBD-mysql/ => 500
21
22 so the /site/ option is nice and can avoid problems, but it's not
23 always working ;)
24 maybe it can be used when available, with a fallback on the ~author
25 page if the site one doesn't work ?
