[Catalyst] "Connection reset by peer" when using CPAN do download Catalyst

Tue Nov 8 18:34:23 GMT 2016

Hi Jorge,

Thanks for taking the time to reply.

I googled the most obvious things long before contacting the mailing lists.
Those posts are over two years old.

It may be a network issue, but it's occuring on multiple networks and the
only things effected are CPAN and it's kin. CPAN has 220 open issues, so
it's not perfect.

All the best.

Duncan
