I've upgraded to RH 6 on my machine (don't ask me why :), and discovered
that new Perl package lacks pod2text, which is required for building some
packages (e.g., DBD::mysql). Since someone asked about this here, here is
the solution: install package Pod::SimpleText and link pod2txt to
pod2text.

GY Aww, just
GY# cat/usr/bin/pod2text
But pod2txt seems to be more than that. The Pod::SimpleText is a rewrite
of ::Text, which claims to fix, among other, a number of bugs. SimpleText
uses PodParser, while ::Text is standalone. I guess that's why binary got
removed - to make users upgrade
