Pod2html seems to need an executable file with the path usr/bin/perl.
The beginning of pod2html is:
#!/usr/bin/perl
eval 'exec c:programme/cygwin/usr/bin/perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}'
At least it should be c:/programme/cygwin/usr/bin/perl, better just
leave it as is?
However it is wrong anyway. In a Cygwin environment usr/bin is just a
mount which points to /bin, so all the executables are actually in
c:/programme/cygwin/bin/
(I had to change the path from usr/bin/perl, because it wasn't found)
if $running_under_some_shell;
If you need to call it from bash, then see above about using the correct
syntax for paths. Why wasn't it found by bash? Have you Cygwin perl
installed at all?
=pod
=head1 NAME
pod2html - convert .pod files to .html files
But in the cygwin package usr/bin/perl is an empty dirctory (as stated
in the message). The /tmp directory exists, too. So I'm a bit confused.
Can anybody help me? Thank you.
No. There are no directories below usr/bin and there is no directory
usr/bin. Your installation is messed up, delete the directory
C:/Programme/cygwin/usr/bin. Then reinstall perl and maybe other packages.
