Perl distributions. Its purpose is to take care of the mechanisms of locating and extracting a Perl distribution so that your module can do something specific to the distribution. This module was originally created to provide an abstraction for the extraction logic for both Module::Inspector and Module::P4P and to allow additional features to be added in the future without having to modify both of them, because the general problem of "locate, download, and expand a distribution" is one that is almost ideal for adding additional features down the line.
