1. I think perl2pod is a package. What installation of linux do you have ? Is it slackware ? Gentoo ? Try finding "perl2pod" as a package on the installation cd's , e.g. :
# mount -t iso9660 /dev/hdb /mnt/cdrom <enter> (hdb being primary-slave, maybe is hdc or hdd) # cd /mnt/cdrom <enter> # find . -depth -name "perl2pod*" -print | more <enter>
That should try and find any file called "perl2pod*" in "/mnt/cdrom" Give it some time. It should come back with the file location.
2. Yourperl version is fine. I have exactly the same version and it works like a charm.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail-SpamAssassin-2.63]# perl Makefile.PL What email address or URL should be used in the suspected-spam report text for users who want more information on your filter installation? (In particular, ISPs should change this to a local Postmaster contact) default text: [the administrator of that system]
Checking if your kit is complete... Looks good

Writing Makefile for Mail::SpamAssassin Makefile written by ExtUtils::MakeMaker 6.03 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail-SpamAssassin-2.63]# make Makefile:94: *** missing separator. Stop. [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mail-SpamAssassin-2.63]# which pod2man /usr/bin/pod2man
Here's an excerpt of Makefile from around the location of the error:
85 installvendorlib='/usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8. 86 INSTALLVENDORLIB = ib/perl5' 87 installusrbinperl='def 88 INSTALLARCHLIB = /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi 89 INSTALLSITEARCH = /usr/lib 90 INSTALLVENDORARCH = /usr/lib/perl5/ven 91 INSTALLBIN = /usr/bin' 92 installhtml1dir='' 93 installhtml3dir='' 94 installman1 95 INSTALLSITEBIN = /usr 96 INSTALLVENDORBIN = /usr/bin' 97 installvendorhtml1=''
The Makefile seems all messed up. The single quotes seem unbalanced, for example...
Any idea what's going on?
