All the Perl that's Practical to Extract and Report

Module::Info::File 0.05 Released

One of my former colleagues asked me yesterday whether I knew an easy way of traversing a perl installation and retrieving version numbers of all installed modules.

I answered him I only knew how to do this in a script. So I have updated my version.pl script, which is included in my Module-Info-File module so it can now do exactly that.

I hope he will find it usefull,

An autobundle can do that too

You can use CPAN.pm (or the cpan script that comes with it) to create an autobundle, too. That should have all the module names and versions, although the modules have to show up on CPAN to be in the list.

Hmmm interesting - but since modules will have to be on the CPAN for that to work, I guess my contribution is ok too... :)
