Hi - Thanks for the report. I will look into the failure. In the meantime you can install by disabling tests on cpanm by supplying the '-n' flag on the command line.

Subject: [rt.cpan.org #116551] Why latest version does not work on the Windows platform
Date: Fri, 29 Jul 2016 11:11:02 -0700
To: bug-Pod-Perldoc [...] rt.cpan.org
From: Mark Solinski <coach.marks6i [...] gmail.com>
I too experienced the problem on the Windows platform with a Strawberry Perl distribution. On the Windows platform, the lines like: $pid = open3(\*CHLD_IN,\*CHLD_OUT1,\*CHLD_ERR1,$perldoc." ".$good_podfile); fails to execute the command: $perldoc." ".$good_podfile because Windows will not recognize $perldoc as a script. On my system, if I wrote the lines like this: $pid = open3(\*CHLD_IN,\*CHLD_OUT1,\*CHLD_ERR1,"perl ".$perldoc." ".$good_podfile); work because perl.exe is an executable (which Windows does recognize) and its first argument is a script. I also copied, from my Windows Perl distribution, the Windows version of the perldoc script (perldoc.bat), which Windows does recognize as a script because of the (.bat) extension, into the test directory and without modification of the test, it runs successfully as well.

Hey thanks for this suggestion I think this is what I'll do. I forgot I had committed this "experimental" test and then didn't remove it when I released the update.

Released 3.26_01 to CPAN which should fix this problem using your suggestion Mark. If CPANTS validates it works, I will spin up a "for real" release. Thanks.
