Subject: | Manpage perlpod and perlpodspec Shadowed by Core Version |
Hi. This is imacat from Taiwan. I found that the manpages perlpod and
perlpodspec installed by Pod-Simple-3.05 is installed in INST_MAN3DIR,
which is different than the core manpage in INST_MAN1DIR. As a result,
there are 2 versions installed onto the system, which the older core
version takes precedence.

I looked into ExtUtils::MakeMaker, but cannot get a simple solution
on this. Maybe you can look into this issue? thank you.
