+This module is a CPANPLUS backend that recursively generates Gentoo ebuilds for a given package in the default overlay, updates the manifest, and even emerges it (together with its dependencies) if the user requires it.
The generated ebuilds are placed into the C<perl-gcpanp> category.
They favour depending on a C<virtual>, on C<perl-core>, C<dev-perl> or C<perl-gcpan> (in that order) rather than C<perl-gcpanp>.
