[rt-users] Perl Module dependency problem...

[jkaufman at footlocker.com]

Does anyone else have a problem with Text::Autoformat not compiling with
the following error?
  CPAN.pm: Going to build D/DC/DCONWAY/Text-Autoformat-1.04.tar.gz

Checking if your kit is complete...
Looks good
Writing Makefile for Text::Autoformat
cp lib/Text/Autoformat.pm blib/lib/Text/Autoformat.pm
cp demo.pl blib/lib/Text/demo.pl
Manifying blib/man3/Text::Autoformat.3
Unknown escape E<> at /opt/freeware/bin/pod2man line 48

which I would assume contributes to the following error in a make test...


Running make test

make: *** [test_dynamic] Error 255

Does anyone know if forcing the install will present problems later on?

Thanks..
