When using cpan to install DateTime under cygwin, I got a long series of the following error messages (seemingly one for each locale): 
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime/Locale/pa_Guru_IN.pm: unknown pod directive
+ 'encoding' in paragraph 10.  ignoring.

I also got the following, seemingly less important error messages: 
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime/Infinite.pm: cannot resolve L<DateTime.pm|D
+ateTime> in paragraph 51.
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime.pm: cannot resolve L<datetime wiki|http://d
+atetime.perl.org> in paragraph 1182.
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime.pm: cannot resolve L<search.cpan.org|http:/
+/search.cpan.org/search?query=datetime&mode=dist> in paragraph 1182.
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime/Duration.pm: cannot resolve L<DateTime> in 
+paragraph 156.
./Build: blib/lib/DateTime/Duration.pm: cannot resolve L<DateTime> in 
+paragraph 158.

What is the meaning of the above error? What do I need to do to fix them? Should I care or just ignore?

Thanks
