What do you mean with "it"? I just asked a cpan shell and got:
cpan[1]> m Thrift
Module id = Thrift
CPAN_USERID JKING (James E. King, III <CENSORED>)
CPAN_VERSION 0.010000
CPAN_FILE J/JK/JKING/thrift/Thrift-0.10.0.tar.gz
UPLOAD_DATE 2017-01-27
INST_FILE (not installed)

It's up to you and your users. I'd make it dependent on how much
orientation people will need when things go wrong. And it should
probably be consistent across releases.
