Adding package for CPAN distribution Module-Path version 0.09 into
filesystems/p5-Module-Path. Module::Path provides a single function, module_path(), which will find where a module is installed locally. It works by looking in all the directories in @INC for an appropriately named file: * Foo::Bar becomes Foo/Bar.pm, using the correct directory path separator for your operating system. * Iterate over @INC, ignoring any references (see "require" in "perlfunc" if you're surprised to hear that you might find references in @INC). * For each directory in @INC, append the partial path (Foo/Bar.pm), again using the correct directory path separator. If the resulting file exists, return this path. * If no file was found, return undef.
