CPAN-API/metacpan-web — Issue #382: Results not good enough for a search for XML-LibXML-Common

I tried http://search.cpan.org/search?query=XML-LibXML-Common&mode=dist and got as the very first hit: XML-LibXML-Common-0.13 (1 Reviews) - 30 May 2003 - Christian Glahn

This is a very important result because many older versions of XML::LibXML depend on it and the CPAN shell has no memories of it, because more recent versions of XML::LibXML come with X:L:Commmon packaged.

So how can I find an equivalent page on metacpan?

https://metacpan.org/release/XML-LibXML-Common is a mostly empty page

https://metacpan.org/module/XML::LibXML::Common has a link "Go to version" but it doesn't go as far back as 0.13

Seems like it's impossible to find XML-LibXML-Common-0.13 ?
