[aur-general] [RFC] Inclusion of CPANPLUS in community

Hi,

I'd like to move perl-cpanplus and perl-cpanplus-dist-arch to community
so users can install software from cpan easily without bypassing pacman.

I'm not sure whether this is a problem or not because cpanplus automates
the installation of software from a possibly untrusted source. It uses
the metadata from CPAN to generate a PKGBUILD and runs makepkg -i on that.

More information about perl-cpanplus-dist-arch can be found here:
