Thanks for the hint... two thoughts, feedback welcome:
1. Pod::PlainText used to be part of the core... but since now Pod::Usage
depends on Pod::Simple, I think the tests should be restructured to use that,
or as a last resort, Pod::Text
2. Pod::Find might deserve a separate distribution, but again the test of
Pod::Usage should not depend on it.
Hope to find some time to get that done in the next days...

It has been a goal to remove Pod::Parser from the core perl distribution.
It turns out there is a dependency in 2 test files for pod2uage upon Pod::Find
and Pod::PlainText, which are parts of Pod::Parser.
The test files are Pod-Usage/t/pod/pod2usage.t
and Pod-Usage/t/pod/pod2usage2.t
Note that Pod::Usage itself doesn't depend on Pod::Parser, just two test files
do. I don't understand this part of perl at all. So I'm wondering what to do
about this. Could the tests just be deleted? Is there a current alternative
to the functionality of these modules?
