I have a Perl program with tradition (i.e. I use it over 10 years), but today I realized that it cannot find Data::UUID any more. I also tried to install a corresponding package from the SLES software repository, but I could not find one.

AFAIR it still worked in January this year.

I'm using perl-5.18.2-12.23.1.x86_64 from SLES 12 SP5. Could it be a packaging error? It also seems that several "perldelta" manual pages (describing the changes between versions) are missing, so I cannot look up whether the standard distribution had changed.

I also see the same problem in openSUSE Leap 15.3.

It seems the module is not in one of the official repositories, but it's available through the build service: Data::UUID for SLE 12 SP4, Data::UUID for SLE 15 SP3, Data::UUID for Leap 15.3

However I'm not sure whether it actually existed in official repositories before; maybe I had installed the package for some other source, and the package got lost during some Perl upgrade.
