Indeed. Why are you installing ExtUtils-MakeMaker? Valid question - MakeMaker is provided by perl itself. The ebuild is for users running old (pre 5.8.2 at least) systems who need the functionality of a new makemaker without the ability to upgrade perl. But the man pages will be put in the same location for both the main perl and module ebuild. Perl and collision-protect do not work together. See posting on -dev for more. |
