Unlikely but possible? That's how most of my package's homepages are
like - An entry in CPAN, no more and no less. It is of absolutely no
use for the casual user who wants to install the package. It is only
useful when you want to download the sources and install it by
yourself, maybe after some modifications - and that renders the
package useless.
