Hello,


I've been motoring along quite happily with Freeradius 0.8.1 However I was just looking at the changelog for FreeRadius 0.9.2
and it appears several bugs have been found/fixed along with new features and dictionaries.


./configure works well.
make works well also.
However,  there is an error with pod2man when I "make install"


Perl is version "5.005_03 built for i386-freebsd" (As in the default version of perl on FreeBSD 4.8)


The following is the output:

gmake[6]: Entering directory `/usr/dl/freeradius-0.9.2/src/modules/rlm_ippool'
pod2man --release=" " --date="October 2nd, 2003" --center="FreeRADIUS Daemon" --section=8 rlm_ippool_tool.pod rlm_ippool_tool.8

Stop in /usr/dl/freeradius-0.9.2.



On a similarly configured machine (FreeBSD 4.8) it works. the only difference is the other machine has perl 5.8.0 compiled from ports.
Obviously this makes sense, because pod2man is a perl translator.


However, if you edit src/modules/rlm_ippool/Makefile.in and change:
pod2man --release=" " --date="October 2nd, 2003" --center="FreeRADIUS Daemon" --section=8 rlm_ippool_tool.pod rlm_ippool_tool.8
to:
pod2man --release=" " --date="October 2nd, 2003" --center="FreeRADIUS Daemon" --section=8 rlm_ippool_tool.pod


It works on both versions of perl. I'm not familiar with FreeRadius enough to know if such a change would break anything else.
Feedback? Comments?



Thanks for your help,


Jeff Palmer
