I believe that these broken URLs are now fixed, so I'm closing this bug.

Hi Tobias,
There are still at least two more bad URLs from this batch of perl
updates circa March 23rd:
mirror://cpan/authors/id/A/AB/ABW/Template-Toolkit-2.28.tar.gz
mirror://cpan/authors/id/M/MA/MAKAMAKA/Text-CSV-1.99.tar.gz
Could you take a look?
Thanks,
Mark

up investigating too much, bah!
Now I had time to rant about package names. Win-win! …wait
Let me know what you think.

Mark,
