 When I attempted to install the Purple module from http://cpan.org I
 discovered that there is an unrelated module of the same name. Here is the
 direct link:

 http://search.cpan.org/~cdent/Purple-0.9/lib/Purple.pm
 "Purple - Distributed granular addresses on the web"

 The Pidgin module also doesn't seem to exist on CPAN.
