Linux not free anymore? I decline to agree.

And Debian has always remained free.

module::packaged
Module::Packaged(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Module::Packaged(3pm)
NAME
Module::Packaged - Report upon packages of CPAN distributions
SYNOPSIS
use Module::Packaged;
my $p = Module::Packaged->new();
my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar');
# $dists is now:
# {
# cpan => '1.08',
# debian => '1.03',
# fedora => '0.22',
# freebsd => '1.07',
# gentoo => '1.05',
# openbsd => '0.22',
# suse => '0.23',
# }
# meaning that Archive-Tar is at version 1.08 on CPAN but only at
# version 1.07 on FreeBSD, version 1.05 on Gentoo, version 1.03 on
# Debian, version 0.23 on SUSE and version 0.22 on OpenBSD
DESCRIPTION
CPAN consists of distributions. However, CPAN is not an isolated system - distributions are also packaged in other places, such as for
operating systems. This module reports whether CPAN distributions are packaged for various operating systems, and which version they have.
Only CPAN, Debian, Fedora (Core 2), FreeBSD, Gentoo, Mandriva (10.1), OpenBSD (3.6) and SUSE (9.2) are currently supported. I want to
support everything else. Patches are welcome.
The data is fetched from the net and cached for an hour.
METHODS
new()
The new() method is a constructor:
my $p = Module::Packaged->new();
check()
The check() method returns a hash reference. The keys are various distributions, the values the version number included:
my $dists = $p->check('Archive-Tar');
