Re: unknown pod directive 'encoding' in paragraph NN

What Perl version? The =encoding feature hasn't been a part of the POD spec forever. Check to ensure your version of Perl is sufficiently current to meet the needs of version of the module you require.

5.14 which per my googling is recent enough to include 'encoding'. Thanks	[reply]

I frequently encounter this same problem when I run my tests. From what I've read, the problem harks back to older versions of Pod::Man. It didn't require Pod::Simple, and it didn't require Encode. The `=encoding UTF-8` didn't come around until grantm put it into Pod::Simple---and that was around 2012; whereas perl v5.14.0 came out in May of 2011. Reinstall Pod::Man, Pod::Simple, and Encode. Then reinstall DateTime::Locale.	[reply] [d/l]
