I'm trying to install Archive::Zip, and receive the error that pod2man can't be
found:

Looks good

I've done the obvious:

local/scripts
[defang@tolstoy defang]$ type pod2man
pod2man is /usr/bin/pod2man
It seems to work...

NAME
MIME-tools - modules for parsing (and creating!) MIME entities
SYNOPSIS
Hereās some pretty basic code for parsing a MIME message, and out-
putting its decoded components to a given directory:
.... but cpan just can't find it. I even tried deleting it, bringing a copy in
from another system, and installing it in a different directory in the path -
no such luck.
What am I doing wrong here?
Thanks much,

This is probably *not* the answer to your problem, but at least it's a
rule-out: Are you trying to have cpan install this module relative to
a Perl executable located in /usr/bin or one in /usr/local/bin? If
you have 2 different versions of Perl installed in 2 different
locations, there's a chance that 'make' is not finding a 'pod2man'
relative to the current executable.
As I said, this is probably not your problem, but I had a similar
problem with the 'cpan' utility once I installed 5.8.4 alongside
5.8.0. In that case, I had to manually edit the newer version of
'cpan' to get its path working properly. So it's at last worth ruling
out.
Note: I doubt this has anything to do with Archive::Zip per se. Have
you gotten this problem with other attempts at installing from CPAN?

Nope; that's the _really_ weird part. CPAN's been running fine here forever.
I installed mimedefang over the weekend; everything went without a hitch. I
was installing some of the optional modules, like Unix::Syslog, and they all
just slid right in - except for the Archive::Zip module!
Weird...

I tried grepping for the above warning message or relevant parts
thereof and had no luck. Did you copy and paste it?
Additional diagnostic questions: What version of Perl? What version
of ExtUtils::MakeMaker?

Yup. That's exactly as it appears on the screen. In fact, here's the whole
