How long until the search.cpan.org links are working again?

For example http://search.cpan.org/dist/CGI.pm/
links to
http://www.cpantesters.org/show/CGI.pm.html#CGI.pm-3.42
which is gone

I've manually added a symlink to fake that fix. Long term fix should be to ask Lincoln to take the -pm out of the distribution name. -- Barbie \| Birmingham Perl Mongers CPAN Testers: Reports \| Wiki \| Statistics	[reply]

Actually it didn't work before (try http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/CGI-pm.html#CGI.pm-3.42). There have been all sorts of problems because CGI.pm has been named differently from all the other distributions. CGI.pm is the exception to the rule everybody else uses :) -- Barbie \| Birmingham Perl Mongers CPAN Testers: Reports \| Wiki \| Statistics	[reply]
