reverse_dependencies() points to an invalid URL

[stevieb9]

I'm wondering if the REST API for the reverse dependency URL has changed.

perl -MMetaCPAN::Client -E 'say $MetaCPAN::Client::VERSION'
2.016000

Test code:

use warnings;
use strict;

use MetaCPAN::Client;

my $module = 'MetaCPAN::Client';

my $mcpan = MetaCPAN::Client->new;

my $rs = $mcpan->reverse_dependencies($module);

my @revdeps;

while (my $release = $rs->next){
    push @revdeps, $release->distribution;
}

print "$_\n" for @revdeps;

Output/Error:

Failed to fetch 'https://fastapi.metacpan.org//search/reverse_dependencies/MetaCPAN-Client': Not Found at /home/pi/perl5/perlbrew/perls/perl-5.24.1/lib/site_perl/5.24.1/MetaCPAN/Client.pm line 315.

Upon going to cpan.org and hovering over the revdeps link for this distribution, I see:

https://metacpan.org/requires/distribution/MetaCPAN-Client?sort=[[2,1]]

Much different than the one in the error message. The link in the error fails to work in the browser as well (as expected), throwing a 404.

Just wondering if I'm missing something here or not.

reverse_dependencies upstream link was recently changed.
I updated the link - thanks for the report.

I released a new version with the fix (2.017000)
