See https://log.perl.org/2018/05/goodbye-search-dot-cpan-dot-org.html

Rather than scraping for a link to the raw changes file, we can just get it from metacpan's API, and also use it to more reliably get the distribution name for a module. Just a first attempt, not sure how to test it beyond running make test.

I support this change.

briandfoy added a commit to briandfoy/app-cpan-upgraded that referenced this pull request Sep 11, 2025
though. This was reported as andk/cpanpm#117

Take out LWP and use HTTP::Tiny.

Use the MetaCPAN API instead of old search.cpan.org links.
