Both poe.perl.org and sourceforge.net were experiencing difficulties.
They've since come back, so the code's now at
<http://poe.perl.org/poedown/deptest-0.1201.tar.gz>
Simple usage: run deptest.perl from a distribution's root directory.

If you got a CPAN-mirror at your own ftp-server, no problem, i did it like you,
but you will never need all modules, so all downloading is a mess, and there is no up
