I'm not a Mandrake user, but if its anything like Debian they've likely moved perldoc and all the docs into a seperate package probably called perl-doc. This shaves about 10 megs off a pre-compiled distribution of perl. Under Debian, perl-doc is a suggested installation when perl is installed (sort of like an optional dependency). I don't think RPM has a similar concept so I can see how a user might miss it. Ahh, here's a Mandrake bug on the subject. https://qa.mandrakesoft.com/show_bug.cgi?id=585 -- Michael G.
