Bug 758080 – app-text/po4a-0.57: fails to build with >=dev-lang/perl-5.32.0 if virtual/perl-Pod-Parser is not installed

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

Building app-text/po4a-0.57 with (now masked) dev-lang/perl-5.32.0-r1 fails:

That's caused by an undeclared dependency on virtual/perl-Pod-Parser (Pod::Parser is used at lib/Locale/Po4a/Pod.pm:14). Pod::Parser was removed from upstream Perl 5.32.0 and thus it needs to be specified in the po4a ebuild among RDEPENDS:
