[Improvements]
- Exclude backpan distribution from MetaCPAN query (mo)

size of cpanm executable about 30%.

- Re-enable --metacpan option to prefer MetaCPAN over CPANMetaDB for all queries,

module version in some cases
1.59_08 Wed Feb 6 11:25:45 PST 2013

1.59_07 Wed Feb 6 11:08:05 PST 2013
[Incompatible Changes]
- Disable implicit --skip-satisfied auto conversion with version specification
- Do not fallback to search.cpan.org scraping anymore. This means some of the bogus
search that doesn't match package name on PAUSE but returns a hit on search.cpan.org
can't be installed anymore. You have to use the right package name for it.
- Enable MetaCPAN search by default. --metacpan option is deprecated
[New Features]
- EXPERIMENTAL: --dev option to enable including developer release for searching
against MetaCPAN
[Improvements]
- Improve MetaCPAN query to search stable releases, unless developer release is requested

- Make file copy more reliable on Win32 (A.J. Lucas) #180

- Support version range with "~", such as cpanm DBI~">= 1.0, < 2.0"
- Enable metacpan release search when exact version is given (and when mirror-only is not specified)
i.e. cpanm DBI@1.100 will fetch the exact release based on metacpan
1.59_01 Thu Jan 31 09:54:50 PST 2013
[New Features]
- Added a proper support for version range in MYMETA files using CPAN::Meta::Requirements
- Skip installing modules when found versions from CPAN doesn't satisfy the requirement, rather
than proceeding as if it is ok. For instance, if a ditribution X requires Y >= 1.1 and Y on
CPAN (or your CPAN mirror) has 1.0, cpanm will just complain and stop installing it.
- Better cpanfile end-to-end support
- Upgraded fatpacked modules to the latest
