Hi. What's happening here is Test::Simple is looking for pod2man. That's ok. You have pod2man on your system, but that's not the pod2man that we need. You need the pod2man Perl module. It's part of the podlators module.

Here's where it gets tricky. For some reason which I can't figure out, the CPAN shell can't find podlators, so you'll need to download it manually from CPAN and install it yourself. After installation, pod2man becomes Pod::Man. Run "perldoc Pod::Man" to get more info.
