in reply to Gtk2-Perl POD

If all else fails, there's a debian package libgtk2-perl-doc which contains the .pod files (see filelist, if you want to check before downloading).

In case you're not on a Debian based system, you can unpack .deb packages as follows:

# step 1 $ ar x libgtk2-perl-doc_1.221-4_all.deb

This extracts 3 files, among which there is data.tar.gz, which you can then untar:

# step 2 $ tar xzf data.tar.gz

( ar and tar should be available on any Unix system, and even for Windows (I think) )

    Thank you almut. This is precisely what I was looking for! Do you know by any chance where the actual source of this doc resides? Thankfully I use Debian and FreeBSD, but how about people developing on other systems that don't want to alienate a package from another sys? I think that this POD should be available on the CPAN, the same way they are as a deb package. Do you know is there is any reason this is not so?
