#1615: Busybox or Perl-Module-Cpan need a fix
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------

Severity: normal | Keywords: busybox gzip cpan
Blocking: | Blockedby:
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Since gzip is a symlinked command to busybox, and not the full gzip
utility, the perl-module-cpan library often fails to unpack tarballs
because the CPAN module is configured to use a --decompress flag to gzip,
when the busybox version of gzip only supports the shorter -d flag
equivalent.
Either busybox needs to be changed to allow the full --decompress flag, or
the perl-module-cpan package needs to be altered to use the shorter -d
flag that *is* supported by the busybox gzip utility.
