FUNCTIONS
cleanup_download_dir
Usage:
cleanup_download_dir(%args) -> [$status_code, $reason, $payload, \%result_meta]Remove older versions of downloaded software.
This function is not exported.
This function supports dry-run operation.
Arguments ('*' denotes required arguments):
download_dir => dirname
install_dir => dirname
program_dir => dirname
Special arguments:
-dry_run => bool
Pass -dry_run=>1 to enable simulation mode.
Returns an enveloped result (an array).
First element ($status_code) is an integer containing HTTP-like status code (200 means OK, 4xx caller error, 5xx function error). Second element ($reason) is a string containing error message, or something like "OK" if status is 200. Third element ($payload) is the actual result, but usually not present when enveloped result is an error response ($status_code is not 2xx). Fourth element (%result_meta) is called result metadata and is optional, a hash that contains extra information, much like how HTTP response headers provide additional metadata.
Return value: (any)
