You need to specify the authors CPAN directory when you want to install =
a developer version of a module because they are not
included in the normal module index. So the =93elegant=94 command to =
install that module using the CPAN shell is:
cpan M/MI/MIVKOVIC/Mail-Sendmail-0.79_16.tar.gz

Subject: Best way to include developer version of a module
The Mail::Sendmail module included in the ppm repositories, and =
installed using either ppm or cpan is version 0.79 (dated 06 Feb
2003). There is a "developer" release 0.79_16 (dated 08 Jul 2006) that =
has significant enhancements, not least SMTP AUTH support.
I could not find an elegant way to force cpan to pick up that version, =
and have been just downloading the tar and overwriting the
Sendmail.pm file.
What is the recommended way of handling this issue?
