On checking out fresh source, I had another attempt. Rob you were correct in guessing that it would appear in the makefile. I get the following line: # --- MakeMaker htmlifypods section: POD2HTML_EXE = $(PERLRUN) "-MActivePerl::DocTools" -e "UpdateHTML_blib(installdirs => "$(INSTALLDIRS)")" POD2HTML = $(POD2HTML_EXE) On checking my previous makefile which successfully compiled, it had: -e "Pod2HTML(installdirs => "$(INSTALLDIRS)")" Tried to recompile the previous version which had successfully compiled and it put the same entry in the makefile. So not sure why this has occurred as the only thing I have updated was Perl, from 5.8.7 to 5.8.8.819 dated 29 Aug 2006 (noted that Glenn installed build 817, but was able to compile it without the 'UpdateHTML_blib').
