I think this just means that installing Pod-Simple from CPAN will overwrite the files in the local Perl distribution in the future. Reading [rt.cpan.org #27203], the Pod-Simple author apparently considers his version of the documentes the authoritative one too. However, I don't see any evidence that the perlpod and perlpodspec documents have been synced between Pod-Simple and the core. The differences between Pod-Simple-3.07 and the bleadperl core branch are % for i in pod podspec; do diff -u Pod-Simple-3.07/lib/perl$i.pod perl/pod;done|diffstat perlpod.pod | 57 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++------ perlpodspec.pod | 55 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++---------------- 2 files changed, 90 insertions(+), 22 deletions(-) I think these conflicts should be sorted out upstream. -- Niko Tyni [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
