search.cpan.org Uploads RSS 1.0 feed

Many people have not been ablt to find the RSS feed for CPAN uploads that search has been providing for quite sometime. The only link was in the FAQ. It was also only in RSS 0.91 and did not contain much information.



Well now there is a new feed at http://search.cpan.org/uploads.rdf which is in the header of each page so discovery tools can find it. And there is a link on the recent upload page

  1. The RSS channel, title, and link need to be updated to "search.cpan.org" from "search-dev.develooper.com"

  3. I am trying to install DBD::Oracle.
    While making "make test" I am having the following errors.
    Could any one help me

    The remaining tests will probably also fail with the same error.
