I just stumbled over a lintian warning about a
"manpage-section-mismatch .. 3pm != 3" for a package using
Module::Build when building with perl 5.10.
I guess the reason is that /usr/share/perl/5.10.0/Module/Build/Base.pm
uses sections 1 and 3 (lines 2555/2579) -
/usr/share/perl5/Module/Build/Base.pm (from libmodule-build-perl,
otherwise identical) has those lines patched to use 1p and 3pm respectively.
I guess applying the same patch (attached) would be a good idea.
Cheers,
gregor
