  Do you just want this script? The packages file in CPAN already has all the namespaces sorted so it's just a matter of figuring out the indention.

  #!/usr/bin/perl
  use strict;
   
  open my $fh, "<", "/MINICPAN/modules/02packages.details.txt";
   
  while ( <$fh> ) { last if /^\s*$/ } # goodbye header
   
  my @Last_names;
   
  while ( <$fh> ) {
      my( @names ) = split /::/, (split)[0];
   
      my $common = 0; # remove parts in common with previous module

    I've updated this very slightly to find your package file automatically and ungzip it. It can also take an optional root to limit the search

      Thanks for both of you!

      What I really would like to see is this being incorporeted to various tools such CPAN.pm and search.cpan.org (which already has something similar)
