Description Darin McBride 2009-07-24 01:02:10 UTC

Version:           4.2.98 (KDE 4.2.98 (KDE 4.3 RC3)) (using 4.2.98 (KDE 4.2.98 (KDE 4.3 RC3)), Gentoo)
Compiler:          x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-gcc
OS:                Linux (x86_64) release 2.6.29-gentoo-r5

I was viewing http://search.cpan.org/~mdom/App-Siesh-0.10/lib/App/Siesh.pm and clicked on the Source link, which points to http://search.cpan.org/src/MDOM/App-Siesh-0.10/lib/App/Siesh.pm .  This got a 301 return from the webserver to go somewhere else, and all I got was a page telling me it has been moved.  Prior to 4.3rc3, this followed the move automatically, and asked me what to do with a .pm file, with an option to open in kwrite.

I'm not sure if this is considered a "feature" in which case I'd suggest it's a step backwards.  More likely, it's just a bug, so I'm reporting it.
