Sheldon.
State Changed From-To: open->suspended Fixed in CURRENT in gnu/usr.bin/perl/pod/pod/Makefile rev 1.5. I'll probably MFC straight away, but I'll leave this suspended in case I forget. State Changed From-To: suspended->closed Merged from CURRENT in rev 1.2.2.3. Responsible Changed From-To: markm->sheldonh Mark was happy for me to do it. |
