In my case:
$ ls -l /usr/share/man/man1/corelist*
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2982 Aug 10 2011 /usr/share/man/man1/corelist.1.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3259 Sep 20 14:13 /usr/share/man/man1/corelist.1p.gz
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2985 Sep 7 01:26
/usr/share/man/man1/corelist.bundled.1.gz
$ zcat /usr/share/man/man1/corelist.1.gz | head -n1
.\" Automatically generated by Pod::Man 2.23 (Pod::Simple 3.14)
$ zcat /usr/share/man/man1/corelist.1p.gz | head -n1

$ zcat /usr/share/man/man1/corelist.bundled.1.gz | head -n1
.\" Automatically generated by Pod::Man 2.25 (Pod::Simple 3.16)
So, where do all these /usr/share/man/man1/corelist*.gz come from?

Hmm... I don't see that in the unpacked perl deb:
/var/cache/apt/archives/perl_5.14.2-13_i386.deb
but something else:
$ zcat usr/share/man/man1/corelist.1.gz | head
.\" Automatically generated by Pod::Man 2.25 (Pod::Simple 3.16)
So, who's at fault here? What am I missing?
Cheers,
