I’ve just discovered this same problem.  According to pause, MJD owns this 
module name.  In 
fact backpan has these files in MJD’s folder:

Sep  7  1998 Algorithm-LCS-0.53.readme
Sep  7  1998 Algorithm-LCS-0.53.tar.gz
Sep  7  1998 Algorithm-LCS-0.54.readme
Sep  7  1998 Algorithm-LCS-0.54.tar.gz

What is going on here?  Is your (Joe Schaefer’s) module a successor of MJD’s 
version?  Could 
MJD make JOESUF a co-maintainer, or transfer ownership of the namespace?
