Hi all,
after upgrading perl to the version 5.8.8 I can't use perldoc to wiew perl documentation. perldoc is searching for pod2man5.8.8 instead of pod2man which is already preset in /usr/bin. Creating symbolic link pod2man5.8.8 -> /usr/bin/pod2man solve this issue.
Example:

$ perldoc -f chr
Error while formatting with Pod::Perldoc::ToMan:
 Can't find a pod2man?! (pod2man5.8.8)
Aborting at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8/Pod/Perldoc/Toman.pm line 59.

Got a 0-length file from /tmp/hsC0HbdpvB via Pod::Perldoc::ToMan!?



Regards,
Roman
