Bug #85240 for PAR-Packer: pod_where doesn't seem to work with PAR::Packer

Mon May 13 14:42:08 2013 jean [...] veronis.fr - Ticket created

Subject:

pod_where doesn't seem to work with PAR::Packer

When run directly the following script prints the path for Data/Dumper.pm #!/usr/bin/env perl use Data::Dumper; use Pod::Find qw(pod_where); my $s = pod_where( { -inc => 1 }, 'Data::Dumper'); print Dumper $s; However, when packed with par, the result is $VAR1 = undef;

That's because by default pp strips POD from the modules it packs. To keep POD, pack with PAR_VERBATIM=1 in the environment, e.g. if bar.pl is your sample script: $ PAR_VERBATIM=1 pp -o bar.exe bar.pl $ ./bar.exe $VAR1 = '/tmp/par-roderich/cache-eb75039d16f65a0b128812311a42553f691a0ab8/inc/lib/Data/Dumper.pm'; Cheers, Roderich
