+Tag: homepage-for-cpan-package-contains-version
+Severity: warning
+Check: fields/homepage
+Explanation: The Homepage field for this package points to CPAN and the URL
+ includes the version. It's better to link to the unversioned CPAN page
+ so that the URL doesn't have to be updated for each new release. For
+ example, use:
+ .
+ http://search.cpan.org/dist/HTML-Template/
+ .
+ or
+ .
+ https://metacpan.org/release/HTML-Template/
+ .
+ not:
+ .
+ http://search.cpan.org/~samtregar/HTML-Template-2.9/
