This packaging error is blocking installation of downstream packages like Pod::Usage. Possible workaround: attempt to install old version to satisfy dependency, like: cpan M/MA/MAREKR/Pod-Parser-1.38.tar.gz This fails for Pod::Usage (apparently it targets 1.51 now) but may satisfy other packages. Or users can install version 1.51 successfully w/ ticketer's patch, like: cpan Show quoted text

This should be a trivial fix, so here's hoping for a bugfix release soon...

This is also solved by updating EUMM
